Brand New
Drake feat Lil Wayne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It seems like everything I do, your used to it
And I hate hearing stories bout who you've been with
That's when I gotta hide, what I'm feeling inside
So you still think I'm confident and damn
Is this gonna last? Your up on a pedastool
Are we moving too fast?
Feel like I'm in crazy competition with the past
Brand new, brand new, brand new, brand new
Is anything I'm doing brand new?
Brand new, brand new, brand new, brand new, brand new
This here is something personal
Highly doubt this feeling is reversible
Knowledge is pain and that is why it hurts to know
That you attempt to hide, and put mistakes aside
So I don?t ever question you and damn
I can't even find, the perfect brush
So I can paint what's going through my mind
Racing against myself, but I'm a couple steps behind
That's why I gotta ask, is anything I'm doing brand new?
Brand new, brand new, brand new, brand new
Is anything I'm doing brand new?
Brand new, brand new, brand new, brand new
Brand new girl
Is anything I'm doing brand new
Is everything I'm doing too late
Did he take off your clothes off just like this
Did he give you loving just like this
Did you spend the night in his bed on the very first date
Tell me baby am I too late?

Drake also talks about hiding his feelings so he can appear confident and questioning if the relationship is moving too fast.
