(Yo, Pi'erre, yo, Pi'erre)

Ayy, ayy
Niggas ain't gotta respect
Niggas just gotta accept
I put that top left
I love my crodie to death (Codeine)
Hype Williams, Little X
If you don't say it direct
Could give a fuck, ayy, yeah, yeah

I put some ice on her hand
I let her take an advance
Shit wasn't goin' as planned
I put that shit in the van
She gotta move with her friend
Heard she went back to her man
Give a fuck, ayy
I just put a Wagen in the driveway, you know I did
When I shoot my shot it's the Kawhi way, it's goin' in
Me and lil' Sicko sittin' sideways, breakin' tens
Used to be an antisocial nigga, now I'm makin' friends
I just got a mansion out in Turks and it's a beachfront (okay)
If she's bringin' four friends
I know I'll hit at least one (okay, slatt, slatt, slatt, slatt)
Got 'em all tannin' by the pool and they greased up (okay)
Police in my city, man, I keep they pockets greased up (okay)
Me and Capo tryna leave our mark and peace the East up
Ain't nobody makin' too much money off the beef stuff (okay)
But I beef a rapper 'cause I'm never with the sweet stuff
Shawty came from Mexico
She know she got the sweet stuff (yeah, yeah, yeah, you know)

Ayy (beep, beep, beep)
Niggas ain't gotta respect
Niggas just gotta accept ('cept)
I put that top left (ayy)
I love my crodie to death (Codeine)
Hype Williams, Lil' X (beep)
If you don't say it direct (beep)
Could give a fuck, ayy, yeah, yeah

Racks all in my jeans and they Raf Simons (racks in my jeans, okay)
Diamonds all in my teeth, I called up the dentist, yeah (okay)
Got a Goyard bag, I threw them racks in it (my racks, yeah)
Every time I'm home, you know I whip the Bentley (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I just threw these pills in my cup, yeah, yeah (just threw these pills, uh)
Shawty just pulled up just to get fucked (shawty just pulled up)
I only want top, yeah, for sure (only want top)
And I know I'm on top, but I want more (okay)
Remember I used to sleep on the floor (With my, oh yeah)
Now every day I rock Christian Dior (okay, Yohji)
Now every day I gotta pour me a four (lean, lean, lean, lean)
Now every day I gotta pour me a four (lean, lean, lean, lean, okay)
I spent a hundred K last night in New York (yeah, yeah)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Drake's song Pain 1993 are packed with references to his lavish lifestyle and the many women that he has at his disposal, along with a sense of arrogance and indifference towards those who may not appreciate him. From the very beginning of the track, Drake makes it clear that he doesn't need anyone's respect, just their acceptance. He talks about his love for codeine and the people in his life who matter to him, as well as name-dropping directors Hype Williams and Little X. He also mentions luxury brands Raf Simons and Goyard, and brags about his Bentley and mansion on Turks and Caicos.


Later in the song, Drake speaks about his success as a rapper and how far he's come from sleeping on the floor to wearing designer clothes every day. He emphasizes his need for more, and how he spent $100,000 in one night in New York just because he was bored. He also talks about the many girls who come and go in his life, both from Mexico and in his hometown. Throughout the song, Drake exudes an air of confidence and nonchalance, perfectly embodying the persona he's become known for over the years.


Overall, Pain 1993 is a typical Drake song that's all about excess and self-aggrandizement. However, there's a certain charm to the way he delivers his lyrics that's hard to ignore, and fans of his music are likely to appreciate the song's catchy beat and imagery.
