From Time Lyrics By Drake Featuring Jhene Aiko

    jhené aiko
    what’s up
    been a minute since we kicked it you’ve been caught up
    with them bitches i don’t get it you’re a star love
    you shouldn’t have to deal with that
    i’d never make you feel like that
    ’cause

    jhené aiko
    i love me
    i love me enough for the both of us
    that’s why you trust me
    i know you been through more than most of us
    so what are you
    what are you what are you so afraid of
    darling you
    you give but you cannot take love

    drake
    yeah i needed to hear that shit i hate when you’re submissive
    passive aggressive when we’re texting i feel the distance
    i look around the peers that surround me these niggas tripping
    i like when money makes a difference but don’t make you different
    started realizing a couple places i could take it
    i want to get back to when i was that kid in the basement
    i want to take it deeper than money pussy vacation
    and influence a generation that’s lacking in patience
    i’ve been dealing with my dad speaking of lack of patience
    just me and my old man getting back to basics
    we’ve been talking ’bout the future and time that we wasted
    when he put that bottle down girl that nigga’s amazing
    well fuck it we had a couple coronas
    we might have rolled a white paper just something to hold us
    we even talked about you and our couple of moments
    he said we should hash it out like a couple of grownups
    you a flower child beautiful child i’m in your zone
    looking like you came from the seventies on your own
    my mother is sixtysix and her favorite line to hit me with is
    who the fuck wants to be seventy and alone
    you don’t even know what you want from love anymore
    i search for something i’m missing and disappear when i’m bored
    but girl what qualities was i looking for before
    who you settling for who better for you than the boy huh

    jhené aiko
    i love me
    i love me enough for the both of us
    that’s why you trust me
    i know you been through more than most of us
    so what are you
    what are you what are you so afraid of
    darling you
    you give but you cannot take love

    drake
    uh thinking ’bout texas back when porscha used to work at treasures
    or further back than that before i had the houston leverage
    when i got summer a michael kors with my momma’s debit
    a weak attempt at flexing i’ll never forget it
    ’cause that night i played her three songs
    then we got to talking ’bout something we disagreed on
    then she start telling me how i’ll never be as big as trey songz
    boy was she wrong
    that was just negative energy for me to feed off
    now it’s therapeutic blowing money in the galleria
    or beverly center macy’s where i discovered bria
    landmarks of the muses that inspired the music
    when i could tell it was sincere without tryna prove it
    the one that i needed was courtney from hooters on peachtree
    i’ve always been feeling like she was the piece to complete me
    now she engaged to be married what’s the rush on commitment
    know we were going through some shit name a couple that isn’t
    remember our talk in the parking lot at the ritz
    girl i felt like we had it all planned out
    i guess i fucked up the vision
    learning the true consequences of my selfish decisions
    when you find out how i’m living i just hope i’m forgiven
    it seem like you don’t want this love anymore
    i’m acting out in the open it’s hard for you to ignore
    but girl what qualities was i looking for before
    who you settling for who better for you than the boy huh

    jhené aiko
    i love me
    i love me enough for the both of us
    that’s why you trust me
    i know you been through more than most of us
    so what are you
    what are you what are you so afraid of
    darling you
    you give but you cannot take love

    baka not nice
    been baka aka not nice from time g
    been a east side ting
    scarborough ting from time g
    been have up di ting dem from time g
    so i don’t know what’s wrong with these
    little wasteman out here eh
    y’all need to know yourself
