Passion Fruit
Drake Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Listen
Seein' you got ritualistic
Plans in my soul of addiction for now
'Cause I'm fallin' apart, yeah
Tension
Between us just like picket fences
You got issues that I won't mention for now
'Cause we're fallin' apart

Passionate from miles away
Passive with the things you say
Passin' up on my old ways
I can't blame you no, no
Passionate from miles away
Passive with the things you say
Passin' up on my old ways
I can't blame you no, no

Listen
Hard at buildin' trust from a distance
I think we should rule out commitment for now
'Cause we're fallin' apart
Leavin'
You're just doin' that to get even
Don't pick up the pieces, just leave it for now
They keep fallin' apart

Passionate from miles away
Passive with the things you say
Passin' up on my old ways
I can't blame you no, no
Passionate from miles away
Passive with the things you say
Passin' up on my old ways
I can't blame you no, no

Overall Meaning

to Drake's song "Passion Fruit" is like trying to unravel a complex web of emotions that are tangled up into a ball. The opening lines set the stage for the narrative, with Drake talking about someone having "ritualistic plans" in his soul of addiction. It's not clear who the singer is addressing, but the next line, "cause I'm fallin' apart," indicates that this addiction is causing some serious emotional turmoil for the singer.


The tension between the singer and the other person is palpable, "just like picket fences," and the other person's issues are left unmentioned. The repetition of "we're fallin' apart" throughout the song makes it clear that things are not going well between these two individuals.


Then, the chorus comes in, painting a picture of two people who are passionate about each other but ultimately passive in their communication. The singer acknowledges that the other person is "passing up" on his old ways, but he can't blame them for it.


In the next verse, the singer reveals that he's been trying to build trust from a distance, but it's proving difficult. He thinks it would be wise to rule out commitment for now because they're still falling apart. The other person is leaving and doing it to get even, but the singer encourages them not to pick up the pieces and just leave it for now.


Overall, "Passion Fruit" is a song about a relationship that is clearly on the rocks, with two people who are passionate about each other but unable to communicate effectively. It's a mournful meditation on the difficulties of modern love and the emotional toll that comes from addiction and failed relationships.
