The Zone Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Why you rushing me baby
It's only us alone
I don't want to die tonight baby
So let me sip this slow
I'll give you what you called for
Just let me get in my zone
I been making love to her through you
So let me keep my eyes closed
[Bridge]
And I won't see a damn thing
I can't feel a damn thing
But I'ma touch you right
Oh I won't see a damn thing
I can't feel a damn thing
But I'ma touch right
[Chorus]
I'ma touch you right
Let me sip this slow
I'ma touch you right
Let me get inside my zone
I'ma touch you right
Let me
[Verse 2]
And I'ma lean
Till I fall
And I don't give a damn
I've felt the ground before
I left it all behind baby
I didn't need no one
But I'ma give tonight baby
I've been alone for too long
[Bridge]
So I won't see a damn thing
I can't feel a damn thing
But I'ma touch right
I can't see a damn thing
I can't feel a damn thing
But I'ma touch you right
[Chorus]
I'ma touch you wrong
Let me slip this slow
I'ma touch you wrong
Let me get inside my zone
I'ma touch you wrong
Let Me
[Verse 3: Drake]
Woah all these broken hearts on that pole
Man if pole dancing's an art
You know how many fucking artists I know
Got some new bills in the mail
Got some big favors I owe
Got some good things ahead of me when these bad bitches let go
Well girl lets go
Walk your broken heart through that door
Sit your sexy ass on that couch
Wipe that lipstick off of your mouth
I take it slow
She in love with my crew
She said "Make enough so I can try some"
I thought taking drugs just ain't you
Be you
Yeah girl just be you
And I do this shit for my home town
It been going down it ain't new
That's North North
That up top
That OVO, and that XO
Your girlfriend at our next show
But it's all good don't stress though
First night fuck
Never really plan it
Take a deep breath
No one need to panic
Lips so French
Ass so Spanish
You don't really like attention
I don't know if she gone manage out here
But she got me all up in my zone
Said she like the view I got at this place
Shit I did all of that on my own
Aw yeah
Why you rushing me baby
It's only us alone
I don't want to die tonight baby
So let me sip this slow
I'll give you what you called for
Just let me get in my zone

So let me keep my eyes closed
And I won't see a damn thing
I can't feel a damn thing
But I'ma touch you right
Oh I won't see a damn thing
I can't feel a damn thing
But I'ma touch right
I'ma touch you right
Let me sip this slow
I'ma touch you right
Let me get inside my zone
I'ma touch you right
Let me
And I'ma lean
Till I fall
And I don't give a damn
I've felt the ground before
I left it all behind baby
I didn't need no one
But I'ma give tonight baby
I've been alone for too long
So I won't see a damn thing
I can't feel a damn thing
But I'ma touch right
I can't see a damn thing
I can't feel a damn thing

Such a deep song. I think it's about a guy who's hurt and just broken, from a relationship. This song is basically saying all he's been doing to cope with the pain of the break-up is self medicating til he can't "feel a damn thing" & that even though he's about to "have sex" or "hook-up" with somebody else in the song, he's only doing it cause he's been extremely lonely and he's going to fantasize about having sex with the girl he's heartbroken over anyways..
like a sort of "sleeping with ghosts"; Frank Ocean's novacane or hammock's departure songs. A lucid venture into past lovers through the pursuit of sensual pleasures. Love how that steady bass line carries the song into a hypnotic rhythm similar to massive attack. It's the bass that makes it very sexy, but the lyrics, vocals and guitar that turns it into a haunting, fragile tune. The intimacy belies the sexuality of the song. He speaks with tenderness like he would with a lover, yet there is also that carnality and nihilistic promiscuity. Slipping into his own impulses, dreams, the past... the down beat vibe is like him falling further and further into himself, into whoever he's with... losing himself and slipping in and out of consciousness... he's running and falling, remembering..
I don't think it's that deep. He prob references the girl in The Knowing, which is the reason why he's been alone for too long.
He just wants to sip his codeine, don't rush him, let him get in "his zone" and your in for a ride.
Drake just brags about a stripper & how he did it all himself for his success.
