The Resistance Lyrics

[Intro]

Yesterday when we were getting high, 
you were invited
You woulda liked it

Uh uh nah, I know you all too well
I said that we can kiss the past goodbye, 
but you weren't excited
There's no way to fight it, 
you can stay but shawty here I go

[Drake - Verse 1]

Should I spend the weekend in Vegas

I'm living inside the moment
Not taking pictures to save it

I mean how could I forget

My memories 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

Carried the weight for my city like a cargo ship


Uhh, I'm 23 with a money tree

Growing more too, I just planted 100 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 ahh
That's word to the millions that they putting up

I'm trying to do better than good enough!


[Chorus]

What am I afraid of
This is supposed to be what dreams are made of
The 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 
oh, huh huh 
oh, huh huh
, oh
You promised me you would never change
 oh, huh huh 
oh, huh huh, oh

[Drake - Verse 2]
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 want to really 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'll 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 women that I mess with unprotected
Text us saying she wish she woulda 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 can 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

[Chorus]
What am I afraid of
This is supposed to be what dreams are made of
The 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 
oh, huh huh 
oh, huh huh
, oh
You promised me you would never change
 oh, huh huh 
oh, huh huh, oh

[Drake - Verse 3]

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 start treating my friends different


Maybe it was the fast pace 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 a fact I haven't seen 'em since they locked big Rich up

I know, the same time I'm quick to forget


About to roll me 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 till it's over
