The Resistance - Drake

Yesterday when we were getting high

You were invited, you woulda liked it

I-I- I know you all too well

I said that we could kiss the past goodbye

But you weren’t excited

There’s no way to fight it

You can stay but shawty here I go

Should I spend a weekend in Vegas?

I’m living inside a moment, not taking pictures to save it

I mean, how could I forget?

My memory’s never faded

I can’t relate to these haters, my enemies never made it

I am still here with who I started with

The game needed life, I put my heart in it

I blew myself up, I’m on some martyr shit

Carry the weight for my city like a cargo ship

I’m 23 with a money tree

Growing more too, I just planted a hundred seeds

It’s ironic cause my mother was a florist

And that’s how she met my pops

And now my garden is enormous

«It's happening, Penny Lane, just like you said!»

I avoided the coke game and went with Sprite instead

Uh-huh, that’s word to the millions that they putting up

I’m trying to do better than good enough

What am I afraid of?

This is supposed to be what dreams are made of

But people I don’t have the time to hang with

Always look at me and say the same shit

They say «You promised me you would never change»

«You promised me you would never change»

Am I wrong for making light of my situation?

Clap on?

When 40 got some shit for me to snap on, now that I’m on

I don’t really want to worry about getting back on

I’m just trying to stay on, get my fucking buffet on

I heard they just moved my grandmother to a nursing home

And I be acting like I don’t know how to work a phone

But hit «redial», you’ll see that I just called

Some chick I met at the mall that I barely know at all and

Plus this woman that I messed with unprotected

Texted saying she wished she would have kept it

The one that I’m laying next to just looked over and read it

Man, I couldn’t tell you where the fuck my head is

I’m holding on by a thread

It’s like I’m high right now, the guy right now

And you could tell by looking in my eyes right now

That nothing really comes as a surprise right now

Cause we just having the time of our lives right now

What am I afraid of?

This is supposed to be what dreams are made of

But people I don’t have the time to hang with

Always look at me and say the same shit

They say «You promised me you would never change»

«You promised me you would never change»

I live by some advice this girl Lissa told me

The other day Lissa told me that she missed the old me

Which made me question when I went missing

And when I started treating my friends different

Maybe it was the fast paced switch up

Or the two guns in my face during the stick up

Maybe cause a girl I thought I trusted

Was who set the whole shit up

But in fact I haven’t seen them since they locked Big Rich up

I know but same time I’m quick to forget

I’m 'bout to roll me up a blunt with my list of regrets

Burn it all, burn it all, I’m starting it fresh

Cause half the time I got it right I probably guessed

Did I just trade free time for camera time?

Will I blow all of this money baby, hammer time?

Yeah, I just need some closure

Ain’t no turning back for me, I’m in it 'til it’s over
