Haters gonna hate, but turn other people's negativity into motivation, and you're onto a winner.

"It’s a marathon, not a sprint, but I still gotta win the race" - Sacrifices

It's not really the taking part that counts, is it? You want to win.

β€I’m in it for the glory, not the honour mentionβ€ - Lose You

Drake only echos his need to be the best in Lose You. And yes, that's his dad.

β€I know I deserve more, I just never said it. Two middle fingers as I make an exitβ€ - Lose You

Some things aren't worth fighting for - just leave quietly and get on with your business. Flicking the Vs optional.

This one's all about confidence, which Drizzy has oodles of.

β€More blessings because I’m generousβ€ - Do Not Disturb

Drizzy spends a lot of time singing about getting money, but thankfully he's willing to share, because greed just isn't attractive.
