Tell Me
Drake ft Partynextdoor Lyrics

All my niggas so hungry, man they just eat what they kill
My friends are driven to succeed and will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals.

I like convertible Bentleys and houses deep in the Hills
I enjoy the luxuries that come with wealth, such as expensive cars and extravagant homes in the hills.

I might tell the whole crew come through
I may invite my whole group of friends to come hang out.

My squad gotta roll through come through
My crew has to come along when I invite people over.

Tell the young high school kids keep dreamin'
Encourage young people to pursue their dreams.

Because they sure do come true
Dreams can come true if you work hard enough to achieve them.

This that fuckin' mob shit, this that fuckin' player shit
This is the lifestyle of a powerful and successful individual.

This that shake a bottle up and bust the top and spray the shit
This is a celebration of success and wealth, often involving champagne or other expensive beverages.

Bitches gettin' dugout like where all the fuckin' players sit
Women are being treated like objects, being used for sex without regard for their feelings.

And like you just got traded, girl
The woman is being used for sex and then discarded, like a professional athlete who has been traded to a new team.

You don't know who you're playin' with
The woman may not fully understand the risks of getting involved with someone who treats women poorly.

Oh yeah, oh yeah, my sound is what up right now
My music is currently very popular and well-received by audiences.

I've been down, but I'm up right now
I have experienced difficult times in the past, but I am currently successful and wealthy.

Nigga been backstrokin' and breaststrokin'
I have been overcoming obstacles to reach my current level of success.

Through that lane that you left open
I have been able to achieve success by exploiting the opportunities that others have overlooked or ignored.

Man I don't give a fuck right now
I don't care about other people's opinions or feelings at the moment.

Let a nigga swim in the pussy on the low
I am having secret sexual affairs with multiple women.

'Bout to go drown in the cup right now, holla
I am about to get very drunk.

I don't know what it was about you
I am confused about what attracted me to you.

Like blue you left me without a clue
You left me feeling lost and unsure of myself.

(I pictured the fate, is it true?)
I imagined a future with you, but I am not certain it will come true.

'Cause I try to make this shit work
I put effort into making our relationship work.

(But it seems like is it your feelings
It appears that your feelings were not genuine.

You kept them hatin' bitches all in our business)
You were more focused on drama with other women than on our relationship.

But I just got one question baby, tell me why?
I am asking you to help me understand what went wrong in our relationship.

You the type of nigga gettin' robbed on a blind date, my squad'll
You are the kind of person who is likely to be taken advantage of, but my crew will protect me.

Kick in your door where that safe at
My friends and I will break into your house to take what we want.

No Atari, games girl I don't play that
I am not interested in playing games or being frivolous with relationships.

If she broke on that nutshell
If she is down on her luck or in a difficult situation,

Everything I say I follow (What you talkin' 'bout?)
I live up to my words and promises, and I don't understand why you would question that.

Ummm, Polo shirt, my collar up
I am dressed in preppy, expensive clothes.

Drippin' on these hoes
I am showing off my wealth and treating women poorly.

Ain't by myself, it's a lot of us
I have a large group of friends who support me.

Made a little money, still ain't got enough
Despite being financially successful, I still feel like I need more.

And if you got a nigga dead, put your lighter up
Raise your lighter in memory of someone who has passed away.

Keep my eyes open, don't say nothin'
I am keeping a watchful eye, but not sharing any information.

Motor geeked up like a raisin
I am intoxicated or high on drugs.

You don't know me, you must mistake me
You don't truly understand who I am or what I am capable of.

For somebody else
I am not who you thought I was.

But it's somethin' about you that I fell in love with
Despite our troubles, I still have feelings for you.

Your ex nigga, fuck him
I have no respect for your former boyfriend.

I had to tell her that
I made sure to let her know my opinion on her ex.

Question, baby, tell me why
I am requesting an answer to my question about what happened in our relationship.

One question, baby, tell me why
I only have one question for you, and I need a straight answer.
