[Drake - Verse 1] Money just changed everything I wonder how life without it would go From the concrete who knew that a flower would grow? Lookin' down from the top and it's crowded below My fifteen minutes started an hour ago Truth over fame, you know I respect the blatant shit When I 'em hear talkin' I just don't know what to make of it Hate is so familiar to me I'm slowly embracing it Doesn't come natural Bear wit' me it could take a bit Yeah, and my dreams are who I'm racin' with You can see I'm pacin' it so that I'm always chasin' it Wayne put me right here That's who I get the paper wit' I hope that my success never alters our relationship Yeah, this life is somethin' I would die for October's Own, but it's lookin' like July 4 I just wish they'd let you try it first This time I'm really goin' off, fireworks [Chorus] Oh, today it begins I've missed them before, but won't miss them again I keep having the same dream And I think that I just realized what it means [Alicia Keys] All I see is fireworks, All I see is fireworks Every night it's fireworks Every night it's fireworks All I see is fireworks All I see is fireworks Taking off like fireworks Taking off like oh-ah-oh-oh [Drake - Verse 2] I'm just such a gentleman you should give it up for me Look at how I'm placing all my napkins and my cutlery I can tell it wasn't love I just thought you fuck with me Who coulda predicted Lucky Strike will have you stuck with me Damn I kept my wits about me luckily What happened between us that night it always seems to trouble me Now all of a sudden these gossip brags wanna cover me And you makin' it seem that it happened that way because of me But I was curious and I'll never forget it baby What an experience you coulda been the one but it wasn't that serious There was smoke in the air before now it's me clearin' it That felt good, all and all I learned a lesson from it though You never see it comin' you just get to see it go Yeah, I shoulda looked up in the sky at first Now I can see it in her eyes Fireworks [Chorus] Oh, today it begins I've missed them before, but won't miss them again I keep having the same dream And I think that I just realized what it means [Drake - Verse 3] Everything the same but it feels different My dad called me up knowing that I still listen And he's still got his foot out, guilt trippin' It's been years, though, I just learned to deal with it For real, me and my realtor we built up a better rapport Got my mother in a place with some better decor She searched the entire city I let her explore And now she's sayin' she more lonely than every before How many of our parents' marriages lasted? I was only five, I bet I barely reacted I'm flyin' back home for the heritage classic Searchin' for that feelin', tell me where is the magic? Let's stay together till we're ghosts I want to witness love, I've never seen it close Yeah, but I guess I gotta find it first Yhat's why I'm really goin' off, fireworks [Chorus] Oh, today it begins I've missed them before, but won't miss them again I keep having the same dream And I think that I just realized what it means
