Do Not Disturb
Drake Lyrics

Silence keeps cloudin' me
My mind is overwhelmed with silence and I'm struggling to find peace.

Hand on my heart
I am feeling the full weight of my emotions.

And I, I wish time never mattered
I wish I could escape the pressures of time and live in the moment.

Stylin' though
Despite my struggles, I am still looking good and staying stylish.

Dissin' but got pictures with me smilin' though
People may talk behind my back, but they still want to be seen with me and have a good time.

All the things you need You still want problems though
People always want more, even when they have everything they need. They create problems for themselves just to have something to worry about.

All the things I know, I still been silent though
I have a lot of knowledge and insights, but I keep them to myself and don't share them with others.

Used to be at Silver City, Indigo Used to be in lunchroom playin' dominoes
I used to hang out in simpler places and enjoy simple activities with friends.

I don't want to have to go to funerals I gotta start sleepin' at the studio I don't have no time to be no Romeo
I don't want to waste my time on things that don't matter, like attending funerals. I have to focus all my energy on my work and my career.

All the love I need is at the rodeo All the love I need is here at OVO
I find happiness in simple things, like spending time with loved ones at the rodeo or at my music label, OVO.

All the girls I know are there with E and Tho Who knows where I end up when that shit gets old?
I have a lot of female companionship, but I worry about what will happen when they all move on and I'm left alone.

Maybe it never gets old and that's just how it goes
Perhaps having multiple partners and always being on the move is just the way my life will always be.

Last table left in Carbone Callin' plays on a rotary phone I take a glass of Domina to go with me home
I am nostalgic for old-fashioned things, like payphones and classic drinks, and I enjoy being the last one to leave at a restaurant.

Might move our annual shit to the dome I need forty-thousand people to see what I'm on
I want to share my music with a wider audience and plan to perform in a large domed venue to achieve this goal.

Ducked a lot spiteful moves I was a angry yout while I was writin' Views Saw a side of myself that I just never knew I'll probably self-destruct if I ever lose but I never do
I have faced a lot of hate and negativity, and it has made me angry and defensive. But through it all, I have grown and learned about myself, and I don't let it bring me down.

Steady doin' double shifts 1da do the beat and I open up like a double click More blessings because I'm generous Thirty-seater plane for like ten of us
I am always working hard and pushing myself to be creative, and my generosity has led to good things, like being able to fly my team members on a private plane.

Remember when I bought Sealy the fake Chanel wallet She knew that shit was a fraud but never told me about it Nowadays when we catchin' up we just laugh about it
I made a mistake by buying a fake designer item, but my friend didn't want to hurt my feelings by telling me. We can laugh about it now and realize that material possessions are not important.

Can't describe what my life is like when she asks about it
When people ask me what my life is like, it's hard to put into words because it's so busy and full of experiences.

Scary whenever I close my eyes at night Wakin' up to public statements about my private life I can never sleep 'til mornin' on all my quite nights But you can rest assure that my mind is right
Sometimes it's scary when I try to relax and sleep because I know that my private life is always at risk of being exposed. But I am always mentally strong and focused.

Get no sick days I leave for like three months and six days Never stick around to see shit change Get lil' updates, texts in my inboxes have been poppin'
I am always on the move and never take a break. I leave for long periods of time and don't stick around to see how things have changed. I stay connected through my phone and receive frequent updates.

Seasons go by like I'm binge watchin' Went from Club Palazzo in the Bridge to Club LIV To not even showin' up at a club unless we doin' bis' I can't even party while a nigga pursuin' this
Time passes quickly, and I have moved from one stage of my life to a much different one. I can't even enjoy going out to clubs and partying because my focus is on my work.

Distractions a do you in the truest sense Especially people that wanna lecture me And frame it like they just want the best for me Or they check for me Whatever splits it up So there's more for them and there's less for me
Distractions can be dangerous and harmful, especially when people try to tell me what to do and lecture me under the guise of caring about my wellbeing. In reality, they just want to benefit at my expense.

They don't know they got to be faster than me to get to me No one's done it successfully
People who try to bring me down or harm me don't realize that I am always one step ahead and cannot be easily defeated.

7 A.M. in Germany, can't believe that they heard of me Last verse that I gotta do is always like surgery Always tryin' to let go of anythin' that'll burden me That's the reason you can feel the tension and the urgency
Even in foreign countries, people know who I am and listen to my music. The last verse of a song is always the most important and challenging, and I am always striving to let go of anything that holds me back. This inner struggle can be felt in my music.

Last chance I get to make sure that you take it personally Take this shit to heart, it's always executed perfectly If we do a song it's like takin' my kids to work with me
This song is my last chance to make sure that people take it personally and understand the message. My work is always executed perfectly, and making music is like spending time with my children.

You overnight celebrity, you one day star Swear I told you that I'm in this bitch for entirety I am a reflection of all of your insecurities
Even though people may become famous quickly, I am committed to my work and to my art for the long haul. My music reflects the insecurities and struggles that many people face.

Behind closed doors, a lot of 6 God worshipin' Done talk now, 'cause there's other shit that's concernin' me There's real ones around me I want to make sure they learn from me
People may worship and admire me in private, but I have more important things to worry about. I have loyal friends and want to be a positive influence on them.

I want to see my dog, but his grandmother's his surety He can't even dip out to see me in an emergency My life is centered 'round competition and currency
I want to spend time with my friend, but he is unable to because of his legal situation. My life is always focused on competition and making money.

Take the summer off 'cause they tell me I need recovery Maybe gettin' back to my regular life will humble me I'll be back in 2018 to give you the summary More Life
I am taking the summer off to recover, and I hope that returning to my regular life will bring me back down to earth. I will be back in 2018 to share more of my experiences with my fans.
