Red Button Lyrics – Drake
Red Button Lyrics
[Intro: Drake]
Check, yes
One, one-one, one
Ayy, yeah!
Look!
[Verse: Drake]
The most decorated, competition decimated
My drive is dedicated, your drive is designated
N!ggas got you to the spot and then you separated
Reasons for it speculated, we know how it escalated
Rarely celebrated, grade eleven educated
Radio is king again, Billboard got me regulated
Wanna makе it fair for you, numbers that I generatеd
Do right and kill everything, people knew that death awaited
Taylor Swift the only n!gga that I ever rated
Only one could make me drop the album just a little later
Rest of y'all, I treat you like you never made it
Leave your label devastated
Even when you pad the stats, period, I never hated
Even when you stab me in the back, the vest is metal-plated
Tryna see a B inside my circle like I'm getting graded
Man, all this luggage in the lobby like I'm getting traded
Every time you need me for a boost, I never hesitated
Every time that Yeezy called a truce, he had my head inflated
Thinking we gone finally peace it up and get to levitating
Realize that everything premeditated
Everyone was good with me, then everyone expression faded
Ticking time bomb and they begging me to detonate it
If I press this red button, dog, everybody Heaven Gated
Press this red button, dog, and everything forever changes
Word to M-Dolla, she the only one could maybe save it
Should've hit you first, but, sis, you know about the sh!t I've taken
N!ggas think it's sweet, but I am not a diabetic patient
No
I will start blacking over here like it's segregation
I will f**king double-cross you n!ggas like it's meditation
I'll give you a hard pill to swallow, this your medication
I will f**king pop up on your as* like a revelation
I could tell you better than I show you, this a demonstration
I will f**king leave you in the dirt like some vegetation
Chemicals is mixing in my brain and killing hesitation
I will f**king force a few shots like a vaccination
N!ggas f**king call me up to cap, this not a graduation
I will f**king put your as* on pause like I'm Pastor Mason
I will set alarms off and cause a whole evacuation
I'll f**king—, I'll f**king—
I'll get to you ten years from now like procrastination
I'll f**king find out wherever y'all are celebrating
Pull up, park my Phantom on the curb like I'm Larry David
And then we'll see who's really crazy
[Outro: Drake]
Yeah!
Grrah
