Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That I didn't know last year, who the fuck are y'all?
I swear it feels like the last few nights
We been everywhere and back
But I just can't remember it all
What am I doin'? What am I doin'?
Oh, yeah, that's right, I'm doin' me
I'm livin' life right now, mayne
And this what I'm a do 'til it's over
'Til it's over
But it's far from over
Bottles on me, long as someone drink it
Never drop the ball, fuck are y'all thinkin'?
Makin' sure the Young Money ship is never sinkin'
'Bout to set it off, in this bitch, Jada Pinkett
I shouldn't've drove, tell me how I'm gettin' home
You too fine to be layin' down in bed alone
I could teach you how to speak my language, Rosetta Stone
I swear this life is like the sweetest thing I've ever known
'Bout to go Thriller Mike Jackson on these niggas
All I need's a fucking red jacket with some zippers
Super good smiddoke, a package of the swishers
I did it overnight, it couldn't happen any quicker
Y'all know them? Well, fuck it, me either
But point the biggest skeptic out, I'll make him a believer
It wouldn't be the first time I done it, throwin' hundreds
When I should be throwin' ones, bitch, I run it (Ah)
I know way too many people here right now
That I didn't know last year, who the fuck are y'all?
I swear it feels like the last few nights
We been everywhere and back
But I just can't remember it all
What am I doin'? What am I doin'?
Oh, yeah, that's right, I'm doin' me
I'm doin' me
I'm livin' life right now, mayne
And this what I'm a do 'til it's over
'Til it's over
But it's far from over
One thing 'bout music, when it hits you feel no pain
And I swear I got that shit that make these bitches go insane
So they tell me that they love me, I know better than that, it's just game
It's just what comes with the fame, and I'm ready for that, I'm just sayin'
But I really can't complain, everything is kosher
Two thumbs up, Ebert and Roeper
I really can't see the end getting any closer
But I probly still be the man when everything is over
So I'm riding through the city with my high beams on
Can you see me? Can you see me? Get your Visine on
Y'all just do not fit the picture, turn your widescreen on
If you thinkin' I'm a quit before I die, dream on
Man, they treat me like a legend, am I really this cold?
I'm really too young to be feelin' this old
It's about time you admit it, who you kiddin', man?
Man, nobody's never done it like I did it (Ugh)
I know way too many people here right now
That I didn't know last year, who the fuck are y'all?
I swear it feels like the last few nights
We been everywhere and back
But I just can't remember it all
What am I doin'? What am I doin'?
Oh, yeah, that's right, I'm doin' me
I'm doin me
I'm livin' life right now, mayne
And this what I'm a do 'til it's over
'Til it's over
But it's far from over
Yeah, that's right, I'm doin' me
I'm doin me
I'm livin' life right now, mayne
And this what I'm a do 'til it's over
'Til it's over
But it's far from over
The song "2010" by Drake featuring Kanye West, Lil Wayne, and Eminem is an anthem of self-confidence and self-expression. The lyrics of the chorus suggest that the rapper has become successful in a short amount of time and that he is enjoying his life to the fullest. He is surrounded by new people, and he does not know them but does not care. Drake explains that he is "doin' him," which means he is living his life as he likes with no apologies. The chorus continues to emphasize that he is going to continue to do that until he reaches the end, but that end is still far away.
In the verses, Drake, Lil Wayne, and Eminem rap about their life experiences both before and after fame. They discuss their success, their power, and their sex lives. Lil Wayne makes reference to his Young Money label and the importance of not dropping the ball, while Drake talks about driving after drinking too much and picking up women. Eminem uses his verse to bring the song together, rapping about the power of his music, the thrill of his success, and the pressure to continue to perform at a high level.
Overall, the chorus and the verses provide a sense of confidence and self-empowerment. The rappers are unapologetically themselves and celebrate their achievements while acknowledging the challenges that come with their fame.

Facts YouTube is the closest we will ever get to a time machine an Eminem killed his part
There they go, packin' stadiums as Shady spits his flow
Nuts they go, Macadamian, they go so ballistic, whoa
He can make them look like bozos
He's wonderin' if he should spit this slow, fuck no
Go for broke, his cup just runneth over, oh no
He ain't had him a buzz like this
Since the last time that he overdosed
They been waitin' patiently for Pinocchio to poke his nose
Back into the game and they know
Rap will never be the same as befo'
Bashin' in the brains of these hoes
And establishin' a name as he goes
The passion in the flame is ignited
You can't put it out once we light it
This shit is exactly what the fuck
That I'm talkin' about when we riot
You dealin' with a few true villains
Who stand inside of a booth, truth-spillin'
And spit true feelings until our tooth fillings
Come flyin' up out of our mouths, now, rewind it
Payback, motherfucker
For the way that you doubted me, how's it taste?
When I slap the taste outta your mouth
With the bass so loud that it shakes the place
I'm Hannibal Lecter, so just in case you're thinkin' of savin' face
You ain't gonna have no face to save
By the time I'm through with this place, so Drake
@brandonayong5823
This was when Drake and Wayne were taking over rap and Kanye was the biggest rapper around. Eminem had been out of rap for 4 years due to depression. He came back sober and reminded everyone he is here for multiple decades
@aayushverma9681
Yo so true
@Steven-uk2fz
Wayne had already taken over rap like a year prior
@vc5917
That Eminem Eminem verse gives me chills man
@trey.l.g.7617
Wayne has already took over way before, he was at the tail end of his peak here
@warrennowell8396
🏰
@chrisg3492
The fact that Drake, Lil Wayne, Kanye & Eminem are on a song together
@jesus3300
Glad i scrolled down lol was thinking the exact same
@chrisg3492
Jesus D. Hernandez literally every single artist can be considered the GOAT of Rap
@jesus3300
@@chrisg3492 honestly, it's preference of choice, to each his own.
