Fall For your type


" Can i, can i, save you from you.
Cuz you know that somethings different
and that champagne you've been sippin,
aint suppose to make you different over time.
It's starting to feel, like its the wrong thing to do girl,
cus with all that recognition makes it hard for you to listen to the the things that Ima say to make you mine
" -

-Drake

Now if we rewind to my early blog days when I did my mini feature on Drake, and fast forward to now, I'm still as into him as ever. Today me and my friend were sitting in the car talking about relationships (typical) and replayed this song at least 10 times. Although it is a teasing 2 minute track, this first verse was so powerful. Listening to my friend talk about her relationship and the connection to this song, made us open our eyes to what Drake was saying. Like so many of us, we meet people with potential to be that person we want hem to be. Despite all the qualities that intially attracted us to that person, it's so often that their flaws stand out greater. And we attempt to make it our priority to fix them. Drake's line " with all that recognition makes it hard for you to listen to the things that Ima say to make you mine" was a REAL ass verse. (pardon).

Breakdown: Usually we get acknowledged or recognized for certain qualities about us that stand out to people. whether it's that you are funny, an honest person, silly, egotistical,...(you get where I'm going) , and all of that may be cool to your friends and outsiders, but stepping into a relationship front, there are things that you may need to compromise. I was taken back that Drake got that deep into the song, and brought that to our attention. If people praise certain qualities about you, those same qualities may not be all 100% in a relationship aspect. So when do you compromise? When do you realize that changing them doesn't always change IT? ....

idk just a thought. but GO DRAKE!!!!!!!
