Drake - Away From Home Lyrics

Lyrics Away From Home - Drake



Ay, what?
So, is it real?
Yeah, ay
Give a - if they remember
I was in the cold, windows froze, I was sleepin' in the whip
Tryna get a grip, I remember
Didn't have no - tryna go, all these rappers lil' bro'd me - 'em, I remember
Way before they had a - DM, I was whippin' in the Ac'
Like that - European, I remember
I remember drivin' Holland Tunnel for a label meetin'
Thinkin' 'bout more cake than a funnel, I remember
Now these - don't remember
I know Neeks remember, I know Jay remember
Chubbs'll make them boys remember
Dead-broke, splittin' pennies with my members
- a spread, we was splittin' chicken tenders
Remember I was sleepin' in the basement, watchin' Tigger in the basement
I was tryna get a placement, I remember
Days in the East with the bros, watchin' Tristan and Devoe
While they runnin' up the score, I remember
TT was headed to the league, I was sleepin' up at Metal Works
Tryna plant a seed, I remember
Rollin' through the city, gettin' beats, always peepin' out the streets
'Cause I was beefin' with The Bleeks, I remember
I was tryna get a portion, tryna make a fortune
B-Town with Candy, I'm tryna be her boyfriend
3 a.m. at Y2, runnin' off endorphins
Start adoptin' my brothers' beefs like an orphan
I was still on Rose when it's pourin' and stormin'
This - is not rewardin', I do not feel important
I wanna see some scratch from the - that I'm recordin'
In Memphis smokin' blacks, tryna act like I enjoy them
Marithé François Girbaud what I'm sportin'
And Mos Def gave me like a rap for performin'
Crib I got now make me think of when I had to put some money on a mortgage
This don't feel like home anymore
It's just wall, doors, and floors
That only I can afford
Remember when it used to mean more, mean more
I got money in the top drawer
It ain't much, but we not poor
You're mine and I'm yours
Like a broke couple, we don't wanna court, for sure
I remember pullin' up at Tao, seein' Quincy Jones
- talkin' to me like he proud, I remember
I remember Mike designed the owl, then he sued the guys
And he duckin' until now, I remember
Remember Reesie stayin' at the house, then she left me for my dawg
Like she never took the vow, I remember
My cousin Ryan fronted me a pound and I couldn't even flip it
Had to bring it back around, I remember
I remember printin' up our T-shirts with Kyle
We in love with the same girl, beefin' like a cow
I would pick them - up, - wouldn't even smile
- better crack a smile 'fore we do a - foul
To keep it real, I wasn't really gangster 'til now
I was livin' on a cloud, I was quiet as a mouse
I was in the club, gettin' lost in the crowd
Wasn't doin' what I wanted to, I do what was allowed
I remember fightin' over Monica with Jason
I remember only knowin' Andre and Jason
I remember buyin' all the iceberg from Jason
That's three different Jasons, my life like The Matrix
Even got on 106 \u0026 Park with replacement
My mama was my manager, my uncle was my agent
Dr. Dre'd send a - home, that took patience
Four Grammy's to my name, a hundred nominations
Esperanza Spalding was gettin' all the praises
I'm tryna keep it humble, I'm tryna keep it gracious
Who give a - Michelle Obama put you on her playlist?
Then we never hear from you again like you was taken
Who the CEO of Universal? They mistaken
'Cause Google sayin' Lucian, but that just doesn't make sense
Who fillin' up the piggy bank? Who bringin' home the bacon?
- don't come on vinyl, I'm still record breakin'
How could I forget? How could I forget?
I was on a Greyhound way before the jet
Buffalo, New York was like the furthest I could get
At the Walden Galleria, tryna make the money stretch
Student price card and a Yorkdale connect
Whole time, Courtne Smith was keepin' me in check
Try and find an inch of the city I ain't stepped in
If it's war, I'll lay my life down for the set then
Yeah
And I put that - on Mads and that - was my best friend, yeah
And I put that - on Johnny Bling, that - was my best friend, right
And I put that - on Richard, that - was my best friend, ay, yeah
Broke his right hand, still took a fight with his left hand
I remember
I remember
Yeah
