Drake – My Side Lyrics

Drake – My Side Lyrics

My Side Lyrics by Drake

A bonus track produced by Boi-1da from Drake’s surprise mixtape, If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late, announced the day after Drake announced a physical version of the tape. A snippet of the song was featured in Drake’s short film, Jungle.

On August 2, 2019, the song was re-released after Drake dropped Care Package on all major streaming platforms — a project he describes as “some of our most important moments together available in one place.” The release comes nearly six months after Drake re-released his breakout mixtape So Far Gone.

[Intro]
Yeah, that’s about it
This shit sound like what being rich feel like, fo real
This life shit is everywhere, you can’t control it
Too much going on
Too much, too much, too much
Too much, too much, too much
You, you, you
Make me wanna take you down through there
Make me wanna take you down through there
I’ll take it there

[Chorus 1]
Why you never come to where I stay?
Always hiding out in your New York condo
Why you never come to where I stay?
If anybody knows, girl, you know, I know
Why are we wasting our relationship on a relationship?
Why are we rushing and forcing it?—this isn’t making sense
Why are we focused on things
That don’t even mean nothing, girl?
Why can we not find the time
And sit down and discuss it, girl?
Let me at least tell you my side of things, man
Aw, man, aw, man, aw, man

[Verse]
Me and you are playing house
Start thinking that I’m losing touch
Got a tight grip on you now
Maybe I should loosen up
When I leave you and I go home
I start forgetting what it is
Start to think I got to get it how I live
We too busy for a wedding or a kid
If I’m working then I know you working
Keep in touch with other women
‘Cause you make me nervous
I empower girls that don’t deserve it
I don’t mean to do that shit on purpose
It’s just that when I go home
I start forgetting what it is
The dream is over, I get lost up in the 6

[Chorus 2]
And you don’t ever come to where I stay at
You just rather stay up in your New York condo
You don’t ever come to where I stay at
If anybody knows, girl you know, I know
Why are we wasting our relationship on a relationship?
You know how sticky these situations get
You go up higher than me some days
You know what I think we could be some day
Let me at least show you my side of things, man
Aw, man, aw, man, aw, man
