Post your favorite Drake Verses

[NSSVO]

I swear to you Lord
Same dudes used to laugh at me
See me in the CL 6 with Haffa B
They know that money begets money so naturally
Me and Half could blow a couple of stacks hassle free
I'm like fukk y'all haters on behalf on me
Cause I could flood the city with a staff of three
I'm talking me and two part -ners in that Caprice
With no copies made I got the master keys
And fast cars, fast women, fast cash and cream
Could mould you rappers like plasticine
I have to dream, but dog
Me and success are two things you don't wanna find your ass between
*Back against the wall like a plasma screens*
The inside of my wallet is pasture/ past your green
And you are now hanging with the asthma team
Sweetie catch your breath while I smash the scene
I should leave Earth, nothing left to do here
Everyday is Christmas and e'ry night is New Year's
Say whatever, I never been concerned about who hears
Call my town Sparta and I'm coming with two spears
I'm telling you dog, always got the spring collection in fall
I run my bill up making executives calls
And with me, women be building these sceptical walls
But once you slept with one dime man, you slept with them all, uhh
Family, money, and music is all I ever knew
My necklace suffer from depression it's forever blue
Cheer up baby you don't see all this revenue?
I started the game at level two
I'm sayin'
Stop acting like teen girls are my only market
I parallel the Flying +Spur+ +Tony park+ it
And it's cool if you spill suttin it's only carpet
That's why I get my interior colour only dark shyt
Toronto's where you livin' today
And you ain't making records that people are driven to play
I would advise you to really make a move, sooner than later
Cause these are only the joints that I'm giving away
You feel me?

 

[Kenny West]

I'm on that old, switch lanes shyt, Jay, Big, Dame's shyt
Talking 'bout them nikkas that my daddy pitch cane wit
Because I never learned the biz, I learned the language
Well-spoken, man I should've went to Cambridge
And mama would always claim this
I never expected the outcome, but one day I became this
Famous, no longer nameless
More game, but I'm the same, I will remain this
I'm still focused, I stay grounded
You see I ran with a style when they clowned it
So read "48 Laws" if you never read it
Because that is one of the main reasons I'm level-headed
Despite the accumulated success
If my attitude ever strayed, I made it regress
I never wanted to win the lottery only because my uncle
Told me "He who made it by struggling made it the best"
So with that on my chest, I'm down on my last 12 gs
Going through the closet thinking I should prolly sell these
Chanel Cs, and LVs, somebody stop before I really start to rebel please
I spend it all, who needs anymore?
Whose satisfied doin' good deeds anymore?
Who grieves anymore, who believes anymore?
Who graduated school and still reads anymore?
Not me, that should have my whole race shook
Because we don't read novels but we do FaceBook
The new craze is havin' that new age look
If I said I liked it, I'd feel like a two-faced crook
Nah, I tell retro kids tie that bandana just a little bit tighter
'Til it suffocates you, biter
Cause I don't wear no bright colors or rope chains
I'm a G, my daddy was in the dope game

 

[CaughtInTWebb]

Dude spazzed on Say What's Real...

Why do I feel so alone?
Like everybody passing through the studio
Is in character as if we acting out a movie role
Talking bullshyt as if it was for you to know
And I don't have the heart to give these
bytch ass nikkas the cue to go
So they stick around kicking out feedback
And I entertain it as if I need that
I had a talk with my uncle and he agreed that
My privacy about the only thing I need back but
It's hard to think of them polite flows
When Stefano Pilati suits are your night clothes
And Jordan sweat suits are your flight clothes
And you still make it even when they say your flight closed
Eyes hurting from the camera phone light shows
Life was so full
Now this shyt just being lipo'd
Always said I'd say it all on the right track
But in this game you only lose when you fight back
Black diamond bracelets
Showing you the basics
I can't live and hold the camera
Someone gotta tape this
And make hits like a bytch that's married
I ain't miss
24 hours from greatness
I'm that close
Don't ever forget the moment
You began to doubt
Transitioning from fitting in to standing out
Los Angeles Cabanas or Atlanta South
Watchin' Hov's show
Embarrassed to pull my camera out
And my mother embarrassed
To pull my Phantom out
So I park about five houses down
She say I shouldn't have it until I have the crown
But I don't wanna feel the need to wear disguises around
So she wonder where my mind is and counts in the minus
But yet I'm rolling round the fukkin' city like your highness
Got nikkas reactin' without a sinus
Cause what I'm working with is timeless
And promoters try to get me out to they club
They say I have fun but I can't imagine how
Cause I just seen my ex-girl
Standing with my next girl
Standing with the girl that I'm fukkin' right now
And shyt could get weird unless they all down
And so I stay clear
We from a small town
Everybody talks and everybody listen
But somehow the truth just always comes up missing
I've always been something that these labels can't buy
Especially if they tryin' to take a piece of my soul
And Sylvia be tellin' Tez "Damn, Drake fly"
And he just be like "Silly motherfukker, I know"
That was your bad
How could you pass up on 'em?
He just take them records
And he gas up on 'em
Wayne will prolly put a million cash up on 'em
Surprised no one ever put your ass up on 'em
Oh they did Po
At least they tried to
And that's what happens
When you spitting what's inside you
But slip up and shoot the wrong fukking video
And they think they can market you
However they decide to nahh
But Forty told me to do me
And don't listen to anybody that knew me
Cause to have known me would
Mean that there's a new me
And if you think I changed in the slightest
Could of fooled me
Boy in my city I'm da 2-3
Drug dealers live vicariously through me
I quit school and it's not because I'm lazy
I'm just not the social type
And campus life is crazy understand
I could get money with my eyes closed
Lost some of my hottest verses down in Cabo
So if you find a Blackberry with the side scroll
Sell that mothafukka to any rapper that I know
Cause they need it much more than I ever will
I got new shyt
I'm gettin' better still
Little nikkas put my name in they verses
Cause they girlfriend put my ass on a pedestal
Future said cause this 'Ye shyt you better kill
And I think this got this "Making of a Legend" feel
Problem with these other nikkas they
Ain't never real
Yea ... that's all I can say

 

[Drew Wonder]

YOOOOOO


This nikka DRake went innnn

Wdf

what possesed Drake to spit such vulgarity?

he had beef with a Young Jeezy ripoff from Canada while he was still underground. probably one of the Canadian posters know more about it

 

[BlackDroog]

I hate Drake...Never liked him.

HOWEVER.....I have listened to most of his music and Lord Knows is one of the hardest songs with one of the hardest verses I have heard in years...can't knock the homie...I would be a fan if he rapped like that more often but all that singing and heavy breathing in the mic makes me nauseous.

Drake - Thank Me Now(1st verse)

Spoiler

"Mahalo from the hardest act to follow
Lately I've been drinking like there's a message in a bottle
Alohas to women with no ties to men
That I know well that way there are no lies
You can thank me now for all the info I give to you nikkas
I'm on the brink of influential, I'm here for you nikkas
I guess a hit doesn't add up to a career for you nikkas
I must have been hard to watch, what a year for you nikkas
It's December 31st and we in Miami just meditating
You got your resolutions, we just got reservations
Living out a dream it feels like I stayed up
And we just want to party, Patron straight up
fukk that old shyt, I'm on new things
O.V.O. Clique, Red Wing Boot Gang
Yeah we want it all, half was never the agreement
Who would have thought the route we'd chosen would ever end up the scenic?
I can relate to kids going straight to the league
When they recognize that you got what it takes to succeed
And that's around the time that your idols become your rivals
You make friends with Mike but got to A.I. him for your survival
Damn, I swear sports and music are so synonymous
Cause we want to be them, and they want to be us
So on behalf of the demanded and the entertainment
That you take for granted, you can thank me now
And oh my goodness you're welcome, you're welcome
At this point me is who I am trying to save myself from
Rappers hit me up and I never know what to tell them
Cause they think that I can help them get back to where they fell from
But drink up, cause everyone here is good tonight
Except the nikkas that I came with, they good for life
That's how you know it's going down in case another chance never comes around"

Gawd dis nikka verses always on point

 

[healthydog]

all of the thank me now verses

 

[SuburbanPimp]

These are Drake's BEST verses?

 

[DEAD7]

"If I Copy Budden's Flow, You Mimicing His Career "

"I must have been hard to watch, what a year for you ******"

 

[blackslash]

Drake's verse on Light up is also straight piff...even tho Hov got him

Spoiler

"I've been up for four days, getting money both ways
Dirty and clean, I could use a glass of cold Spades
Rolexes, chauffers and low fades
I keep thinking how young can you die from old age?
They always tell me nobody's working as hard as you
And even though I laugh it off man, it's probably true
Cause while all of my closest friends out partying
I'm just here making all the music that they party to
But party on, party on all night, nikka
I got these new rappers nervous: prom night nikka
I grow tired of these fukking grown man liars
Storytellers, they ain't even need a campfire
But I just want to tell the truth
Before one of these haters load a couple shells and shoot
The shyt feel like when Fredro Starr
Was in Sunset Park stunting hard in his yellow goose
And I'm a motherfukking missed target
But a target none the less and I just started
Was that directed at moi? Can't be
They must be talking to themselves Hov, hands free
And I'm just filling up this daily planner
Getting busy cause I'm a star, no spangled banner
Jealous dudes get to talking in they music
And I just say I wrote it for your girlfriends, Kelsey Grammer
That's what life becomes when you're doing you
Welcome to Hollywood, don't let this town ruin you
And if you pillow talking with the women that are screwing you
Just know that she gonna tell another nikka when she through with you
Don't get impatient when it takes too long
Drink it all, even when it tastes too strong
I got to feel alive, even if it kills me
Promise to always give you me, the real me "

 

[bigmac]

This might be his best verse in history but it's always been my favourite feature of his. I've always liked it when nikkas stay on subject for their whole verse instead of just going off on some tangent.

Who's that peekin in my window?
Uh, you should let some more skin show
And if one of these websites get the info
Wii can work it out, no Nintendo
I just hit Alt, Tab
Switchin in between two convos
I should just call cabs
And bring 'em both here to the condo
Yeah, normally it ain't a question
We would cross paths like an intersection
But she just too far away for affection
So I pray that we never lose a connection
Cause I remember Stacy, she prolly hate me
She used to threaten she had a man to replace me
She talk that shyt, I just hit the escape key
And then she get mad and wanna go and erase me
And I remember Amy, she used to AIM me
She stayed up late, and used to blame me
She said I'm too wild, she wanna tame me
I told her even Photoshop couldn't change me
But you-you-you, you got me open girl, why lie?
We ain't even tryna settle, so why try?
End the night with a kiss and a bye bye
No strings attatched, your love is so Wi-Fi

 

[NSSVO]

We aren't worthy off a musical superstar with such a great mixture of talent, charisma, and honest material.

 

[CrimsonTider]

Sometimes I feel like you guys are trolling us..I never run into straight Black men over the age of 21 that are serious Drake fans...I'm not saying that people don't like his lil songs because they obviously do.. They are very melodic and catchy...But no grown man is breaking down Drake verses to find jewels or describing him as the leader of the new school...

He's pretty much viewed as the safe n1gga that we can play around our daughters and aunties at a cookout....He's a weird Will Smith/Ma$e/Ja Rule trybrid that honestly seems like a good guy who loves music... But if he's the leader, who is out here following him?


And I'm not one of these bitter elitist dudes that feel like Drake is the death of hip hop.. I don't care that he's Jewish, from Canada and a former child star....Just speaking on his actual music..

The guy is an excellent pop artist.. But isn't elite as an emcee or R&B performer....

Front on this

Spoiler

Uh, you see bad bytches and foreign love
I'll be talking the rhythm, taking the club
Re-negotiations, young Frank I seen all the favorite girls naked
And mental pictures where taken, I never forget their faces
They're lucky I can't, still I'm artistic
Money on the way is got both of my palms itching
You boys in the wrong business for real
You boys in the wrong business!
All that sitting back and watching would make you a strong witness
Testify on how I'm living, make sure it's not fiction
Don't leave out anybody that put me in this position
We couldn't done it better, we change this city forever
Puffing ..lay back, fukking with Fifa
What I get for the features, I wouldn't fukk with me either for real
Now I'm in it for the hoes and the checks
You care less about respect for nikkas I never met!

This shyt don't stop



My style is very Tennessee
Mixed with some Terry Kennedy
People barley remember me from back in the day
I done got some contacts and threw the glasses away
The time it took me to get cool was a massive delay
But check it gets boring growing up in memphis
Trying to become a pro but keep showing up apprentice
Mama probably would have done anything to prevent this
Cause every single time I break a board it gets expensive
Luckly my aunt working as a nurse
So every time I needed something she just reach up in her purse
And plus she'd always give me speeches on the first
If I'm staying in her house then I need to get some work
I tell her I was there on vacation
She say you need to be doing something other than skating
Why don't you go kick it with your uncle in the basement
I ma let him know that your coming honey he's waiting
So now it's me and a old school
Checker playa playing chess looking through old school records and
He knew I didn't really wanna post here
Open up the window told me that the coast clear
Now I coast clear, take a deep breath feeling like the popes here
Homie this is Recess. this is each test
Life's ever given me A plus graded by a teacher in a sweet dress
Yes I'm literly Landel Lewis with a kick and a snare
Kick flip in the air
The kids sick till them jeans put a rip in the pair
Just so the space ain't restricted in here
Breathe again. think it's obvious that they need my soul
Cousins at the do' like ri mi fa so
I say aunty this is a safe career
She said Drake I told you there's no skating here
