Love All Lyrics – Drake & Jay-Z

[Verse 1]
Drake continues the theme of not having a lot but realizing that he doesn't need much beyond loyal individuals in his circle. He sees many lost souls around him, and it seems that his rise to success has put him in a position where he holds the top spot, but this comes with responsibility ("pardon my reach").

The mention of '42 on the flights I'm takin' could refer to Drake's preference for 1942 Tequila, a luxury brand often associated with celebration and success. The "heights I'm chasin'" suggest he has ambitious goals and aspirations in his career.

The reference to being "lights out in Vegas" could indicate wild nights and parties. Despite the glamorous lifestyle, Drake realizes that some people are around him only for personal gain, which makes it hard to trust others. He also reflects on falling out with some of his friends, but these experiences have helped him build a strong foundation for himself and his future.

[Chorus]
The chorus is repeated, reinforcing the themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the realization that people tend to value others more when they are no longer around.

[Verse 2]
In Jay-Z's verse, he addresses the issue of people wanting to harm or discredit him, yet they still pretend to be friendly. He suggests that the best response to such negativity is not to engage and waste time but rather to distance oneself and focus on personal growth and success.

The line "I got a billion or two" refers to Jay-Z's immense wealth and success as a billionaire entrepreneur and artist. He implies that he knows personal information about those who seek to harm him, but he chooses not to act upon it ("I could send a team to come drill you"). Instead, he exercises discipline and restraint.

Jay-Z mentions that he's not the same person he once was, and he no longer engages in menial or subservient tasks (such as shining shoes). He asserts his authority and confidence in his current position.

He addresses the back-and-forth internet drama ("back and forth on the internet") and suggests that he's not interested in engaging in such trivial disputes ("we don't tennis that"). Instead, he calls for action and meaningful change.

Jay-Z acknowledges that he has become a controversial figure ("public enemy"), but he believes that some people are hypocritical, seeking sympathy after previously wanting to harm him. He's grateful for his true family and loyal friends, as they are the ones who truly understand him.

The lines "Everybody want something / You know the price of everything but the value of nothing" point to a prevalent issue in the music industry and life in general. People often focus on material gain and short-term benefits without appreciating the deeper value of relationships and loyalty.

[Chorus]
The chorus is repeated once again, reinforcing the central themes of the song.

In summary, "Love All" by Drake and Jay-Z delves into the struggles of fame, the challenges of maintaining loyalty in the music industry, and the feelings of betrayal and isolation that can come with success. Both artists reflect on their journeys, the value of true friendship, and the need to be cautious about who to trust. The song serves as a candid expression of their experiences in the music world, offering insights into the complexities of their lives and relationships. ...Read Less
