Uh yea alright
Uh well alright
Yea well alright
Uh huh... yea
Gasps

[Verse 1:]
It's a celebration clap clap bravo lobster and shrimp
And a glass of miskato for the girl whose a student and her friends whose a model
Finished the whole bottle... and we gonna do it big like this
Yea and he was just practice he ain't in your world you can take him off ya atlas
Girl ya on fire can I be the one you match with
I give you the credit card and baby you can max this outtt
Show me where ya tax is show me where ya hands at
Maybe I can grasp it they say if ya get her you can understand her better
And she known to be a cheater but that's only if you let her
Yea... and I got it together so when they talk they try to turn me it's like whatever
... tell em' I appreciate the help but I just gotta know for myself

Yea uh

[Verse 2:]
This lifestyle is foul this shit'll damage her
Especially when you think nobody is understanding ya
These girls groups with they overprotected managers
Got paparazzi over my shoulders clickin they cam-er-a
Snap snap snap until they runnin outta card space
You remind me of Tony's sister in scarface
Just take it easy on love and slow ya heart rate
? girl it's graces on top is such a hard place?
Yea... but if you never even been there
You kinda make sense why you dying of pretendin
Spillin all ya drinks takin pictures of ya swimwear
Head up in the clouds you survivin on the thin air
I know that shit is exhausting girl




And your mistakes are costing girl
And maybe you don't need the help but I just wanna see for myself

Overall Meaning

The song “Do It” by Drake and The Weeknd is a collaboration between two of the biggest names in modern-day hip-hop and R&B. In this song, the two are celebrating the lavish and extravagant lifestyle that they lead, with messages of big spending, intricate social circles, and the pitfalls of being a celebrity.


The opening lines of the song set the tone as the artists exclaim, “Uh yea alright, Uh well alright, Yea well alright, Uh huh... yea, Gasps, Feel good.” These lines are essentially setting the stage for what is to come - a night of celebration and spending on luxury items such as lobster, shrimp, and expensive bottles of wine.


The first verse of the song sees Drake rapping about the girl in his life who is both a student and a model. He emphasizes that he is living life on a grand scale and that he can afford to take care of her in every way possible, even giving her his credit card to max out. The second verse features The Weeknd's vocals, where he touches on the pressure of being a celebrity and how it can damage relationships. He also talks about the disconnect between reality and the façade that is presented on social media.


The lyrics of the song is true to the flashy, luxurious, and hedonistic lifestyle of many rappers, which is the main theme of the song. The two powerhouse artists showcase how they live their lives to the fullest and can afford to live excessively. The catchy melodies and smooth production create an atmosphere of decadence and celebration.

"I learned working with the negatives could make for better pictures." What a hell of a lyric. I hate mainstream rap/hip-hop but drake is the ONLY exception.
