Boi-1da - Fireworks lyrics

[Verse 1: Drake] Money just changed everything I wonder how life without it would go From the concrete who knew that a flower would grow Looking 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 sh** When I hear 'em talking, 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 with me, it could take a bit Yeah and my dreams are who I'm racing with But you can see I'm pacing it so that I'm always chasing it Wayne put me right here, that's who I get the paper with I hope that my success never alters our relationship Yeah, this life is something I would die for October's Own but it's looking like July 4 I just wish they'd let you try it first This time I'm really going off, fireworks [Pre-Hook: Drake] 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 [Hook: 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 [Verse 2: Drake] 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 could tell it wasn't love, I just thought you'd f** with me Who could of predicted Lucky Strike would 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 blogs want to cover me And you making 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 could of been the one but it wasn't that serious There was smoke in the air before, that was me clearing it That felt good All in all, I learned a lesson from it though You never see it coming, you just get to see it go Yeah, I should've looked up in the sky at first Now I can see it in her eyes, fireworks [Pre-Hook: Drake] 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 [Hook: 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 [Verse 3: Drake] Everything's 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 tripping It's been years though, I just learn 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 saying she's more lonely than ever before How many of our parents marriages lasted? I was only 5, I bet I barely reacted I'm flying back home for the Heritage Cla**ic Searching for that feeling, tell me where is the magic Let's stay together 'til we're ghosts I want to witness love, I never seen it close Yeah, but I guess I gotta find it first That's why I'm really going off, fireworks [Pre-Hook: Drake] 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 [Hook: 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
