Successful Lyrics

Cover art for Successful lyrics by Drake

Yeah . This song is about what Drake wants for himself . He isn't acting anymore & from here on out it's up to him to be the best he could be . But , I feel he could be scared in a way because he said "But as of late a lot of shit been going sideways" . Things aren't happening as he expected && when he says "Any awards show or party I get fly for it , I know that it's comin' I just hope that I'm alive for it" he knows that tomorrow is never promised So Yeah . idk if this line are in the lyrics above , but in the other successful version, they are.

But i love this song & Drake . i never thought he would blow up the way he did , but he did :). Also, i didn't really understand when he said "And my mother tried to run away from home But I left something in the car so I met her in the driveway And she cried to me So I cried too And my stomach was soaking wet, she's only 5'2" why would she be crying? Was it because he was leaving for good , to start his career? I'm Confused .

Does anyone know? Anyway, this song is amazing ,& it shows how deep Drake can really be. x

According to Drake who did an interview for MTV (I think it was for MTV) he talked about that part of the song where his mom was leaving. One night his mom was having a tough time, became pretty upset, and tried to leave. We arent sure whether or not she was actually leaving for good but Drake went out and talked to her and tried to comfort her, etc. I dont have the link to the interview, but there are a bunch of interviews with drake all over youtube.
