The Calm Lyrics - Drake

1 [Verse 1:]

2 Uh, I'm just so far gone, october's own, Please leave me alone

3 Drunk off champagne screamin' in the phone

4 See my house is not a home, fuck is goin' on

5 Where did we go wrong, where do we belong

6 Caught up in the game and it's one I can't postpone

7 Meaning if it rains I'm the one it's raining on

8 When my diamond chain is on still nothing set in stone

9 Women borrow sweaters that I spray with my cologne

10 And tell me don't forget 'em and I promise that I won't

11 Feelin' so distant from everyone I've known

12 To make everybody happy I think I would need a clone

13 Places we get flown, parties that we've thrown

14 I've done more for this city then these rappers that have blown

15 It's only been 3 Years look at how I've grown

16 I'm just in my zone, I call this shit the calm

17 Yea, but I'm the furthest thing from calm

18 Dedicated to my mom, and I swear my word is bond

19 Everything will be ok and it won't even take that long

20 You can see it in my face or even read it on my palm

21 Leader of the new school it's proven and it's known

22 I'm sittin' in a chair but in the future it's a throne

23 I know you like to worry it'll be better if you don't cause...

24 [Talking:]

25 You know, everything gone be alright, I promise. A

26 Pologize to you know, to put ya'll in this position and vent to ya'll but...

27 40 mom always say, "Don't ask permisson, just ask forgiveness"

28 You know, so... forgive me.

29 [Verse 2:]

30 Uh, And life is so insane, look what I've became, tryna make a name

31 All my first dates are interrupted by my fame

32 Because every picture taken is a fan that you can gain

33 They love it when you smile unaware that it's a strain

34 It's a curse you gotta live with when you born to entertain

35 Women need attention and fore women will complain

36 Develop hatred for men and say that your the one to blame

37 Tryna enjoy myself with Taz in miami at the game

38 I just wish he knew how much it really weighed like dwayne

39 It's a weight that's on my chest whoever spottin' me is playin'

40 So I'm liftin' all alone try not to get a sprain

41 Hopin' western union doing currency exchange

42 Cause my dad called and got me feelin' guilty and ashamed

43 Like, how I had a Rolls and I went and got a Range

44 And he payin' for his cigarettes with dollars and some change

45 Damn, and I could only feel his pain

46 Cause in memphis tennessee there's only so much to attain

47 So I'm fillin' out the form at the counter once a-gain

48 He say he love me I just hope he doesn't say that shit in vain

49 I'm why ya girl heart is in a slang

50 Call me heartbreak Drake I'm the hardest one to tame

51 As a man I'm just honest as a artist I'm a king

52 With my own set of problems that be sittin' on my brain

53 Yea, And see this is the thang

54 What they viewing as braggin' is the way that I maintain

55 The shit I write while staring out the window of a plane

56 Is the single handed reason I Remain...

57 [Talking:]

58 Me, Yea... Uh, I said I call this shit the calm.

59 But I'm the furthest thing from calm.

60 I swear I'm puttin' on but they always wanna ask what type of act you puttin' on like... Man.
