Drake Lyrics

On my front porch, looking past the trees

I wake up in the morning and sometimes I can't believe

Where my life has taken me

And the goals I must achieve

Sometimes it always seems like the weights too much for me

But then

I find the time to take a look up in the sky

I see the private jets and the planes going by

That's me

A daydream away from a reality

Or a getaway from the pain I feel naturally

This 9-5 doesn't help me with this hard time

Will the cash register if I'm part time?

Nonetheless, clients adding to the stress

In a bad spot, need this weight up on my chest

The best thing that I did for myself was runaway

All the nights I couldn't eat, but had too much on my plate

They don't care about my day

And that turned me to a slave

I ain't let it bring me down, that's what kept me looking brave

For the crimes in my neighborhood you can't ignore

The routine gunshots had us on the floor

I always wanted out, I always wanted more

Because a silence is a peace we've never had before

Will I make it out? I'm in a standstill

I gotta climb out, out of this landfill

I'm tryna find New York lights and Hollywood dreams

Champagne glasses, all of the finer things

And let my momma know she never gotta stress

I'll front all the bills and I'll take her out this mess

Tell her kick her feet up, tell her just to rest

Tell her not to worry, that would feel the best

Then I smile at the thought, then I open up my eyes

To the same city view that I always had in sight

The same trees above me, no flashing lights

Then I look back up right to the sky

Sitting back as I daydream

Thinking bout who I wanna be

Wishing now for another life

As I look up into the sky

Sitting back as I daydream

Thinking bout who I wanna be

Wishing now for another life

As I look up into the sky

Will having it all really fix the problems I have?

Will all this money, put my issues all in the bag?

That's what I'm thinking on this late night

What it would be like to have Drake's life, oh
