This was my brother's favorite drake song and after he passed I kinda forgot all about it. Recently heard it again by chance and I don't think I've ever cried as hard as I did that day. I'm not forgetting it this time.
In all honesty this song takes me back to a time when I was young, happy and carefree. Realizing that you’ll never have a time like that anymore hurts…
I lived in Miami when this came out i was 20 years old. It was the most relaxing thing in the world, to just vibe to this in sunny south fla. With the windows down. Looking at the palm trees and water.
It's interesting how our surroundings affect the way we listen to music. I am from Toronto so when this song came out in the fall of 2011, the trees were colorful and the weather was chilly and breezy. Even though this is the opposite of Florida, this was the most relaxing thing for ME.
This instrumentals hit the right spot, especially when you've went through situations that almost made you to lose yourself, but you came out with your mind still intact and your now focusing on yourself and the goals that you have set out for yourself.
Damn 10 years man is really crazy especially with this instrumental playing hope your’re doing good in all your ventures! I pray you are happy and enjoying the worderful hidden gems of life and not taking every second on this earth for granted man 10 years is crazy really hope you are good brother!
This instrumental is honestly sad and nostalgic to me.... I miss life back then. Listening to the song when I’m on a late night drive always flashes memories in my mind up until the song is over, that’s when reality hits again.
Yessir bro this was my senior year of HS and I’d listen to this after games on the way home just hits different this whole album gives me chills bro. Like the sound of it is so gravitating and different
@marc zaman bro exactly this is def a fall vibe but it did come out in the fall! Cause I was in football season and I remember listening to it like this is is insanely good
You probably won’t see this comment, but facts bro listening to this song always takes me back to such happy and carefree memories. Memories that I’ll never experience again, for which I’ll always cherish and keep in my heart
I don’t know if anyone will ever see this or care, but we used to listen to this in the dorm in college. So many memories of listening this the night before a test or midterm, trying to cram as much info in as possible. Stressful times but somehow they are ingrained as some of my best memories. Can’t believe it’s almost been 10 years. Thank you
Something about the instrumental makes me think about it growing up and reflecting on what that’s looked like. Reflecting on how things happen the way you thought they would, but also how crazy n grateful you are abt the way it panned out. It just reminds me of what growing up feels like. One second you’re living a certain way and fast forward many years later and you’re in a completely different place.
10yrs from should be something you look forward too. It's this simple if you say you can or if you say you can't your right!!! Make your life what you want it to be
this shit actually gets me feeling a different way. It makes me think of all the things i can do in my only life because of all the different sacrifices and experiences ive been through
still come back and listen to this. it gives me an overwhelming feeling of nostalgia that's lowkey addicting. love this instrumental and the hook. if anyone is reading this, just know that we will figure things out no matter how hard it gets. keep your head up, and keep fighting. i am rooting for you stranger.
I remember I was in Changi airport in Singapore when this dropped and this song made me appreciate everything I was witnessing. This song, this whole album will forever be drakes best album 💯.
This song reminds me of so much Yung memories when I was 4 years old. I can't belive I still listening to this old track from 2011 until today jeez thatz wonderful
Ah yes, memories. 2 six packs of cold pacific ale, sitting alone in my room, depressed and teary eyed, wondering where it all went wrong. no one came to save me. i moved closer to home later that year, took time off for myself, fixed relationships that were causing me anxiety, lived a little, changed it up a bit, got into new hobbies and fastforward to now i've never felt better. moving back to the same city soon, things'll be better this time round. word of advice: just take care of yourself. everything will keep going on but it's all for naught if you aren't fully there to experience it. and no one will came to save you, it has to be you. love you so much, you'll get through it, just like i did too.
for a lot of people this song seems to make them feel nostalgic/sad and a lot of drake's songs do but this one in particular always gives me like god-like level strength inside. i play it when i'm angry it's a good release for me. mellow...
How I'm feeling, it doesn't matter 'Cause you know I'm okay Instead, I ask myself "why do you hurt me?" When you know, you know I'm the same I know, I know that you love me baby They're trying to take you away from me Only over my dead body I think I killed everybody in the game last year, man fuck it I was on though And I thought I found the girl of my dreams at a strip club, mm Fuck it I was wrong though Shout out all to all my niggas living tax free Nowadays its six figures when they tax me Oh well, I guess you lose some and win some Long as the outcome is income You know I want it all and then some Shout out to Asian girls, let the lights dim sum Shots came, I don't know where they was sent from Probably some bad hoes about to take the hemp from Yeah, you know me well nigga Yeah, I mean you ain't the only real nigga They got me on these white women like Seal nigga Slave to the pussy but I'm just playing the field nigga, yeah Are these people really discussing my career again? Asking if I'll be going platinum in a year again Don't I got the shit the world wanna hear again? Don't Michael Jordan still got his hoop earing in?

'Cause if I'm going anywhere, it's probably too far Just performed at a Bar Mitzvah over in the States Used half of the money to beat my brother's case Red wine over Fed time But shout out to the niggas that's doing dead time And shout out to the bitches there when it's bedtime And fuck you to the niggas that think it's their time Yeah, don't make me take your life apart boy You and whoever the fuck gave you your start boy Or you wanna be a muthafuckin' funny guy? Don't make me break your Kevin heart boy Yeah, it's whatever. You know, feeling good, living better I think maybe I was numb to it last year But you know I feel it now more than ever My city love me like Mac Dre in the Bay Second album, I'm back paving the way The backpackers are back on the bandwagon Like this was my comeback season back, back in the day And I met your baby moms last night We took a picture together, I hope she frames it!

Praying for you and your family’s strength!
May your brother’s beautiful soul rest in peace for all eternity my friend
It just randomly popped up and an ironic point in life for me. My brother and best man died this may . I'm fucked up . But not fucked up(1yr.sober)
@tonecii I'll second that. May your beautiful brother soul rest or if possible continue on in eternal peace.
Love you man ❤
A lot of people say this instrumental is sad but for me this song just feels like fighting for your dreams and looking back to see how far you’ve come
In all honesty this song takes me back to a time when I was young, happy and carefree. Realizing that you’ll never have a time like that anymore hurts…
Exactly
U hit the nail on the head bro!!
Thats what i feel ! Exactly what came oit when i wrote to it . Its on my channel if u want to give it a listen ❤
Greatest comment ever.
I lived in Miami when this came out i was 20 years old. It was the most relaxing thing in the world, to just vibe to this in sunny south fla. With the windows down. Looking at the palm trees and water.
Damn I was in Miami for spring break. I can pic this
+Lyndell Chambers Spring Break in LA is what this reminded me of.
It's interesting how our surroundings affect the way we listen to music. I am from Toronto so when this song came out in the fall of 2011, the trees were colorful and the weather was chilly and breezy. Even though this is the opposite of Florida, this was the most relaxing thing for ME.
Literally the perfect setting listening to this song !!!
I was just coming here to say something similar. God bless.
All of his albums go hard, but take care...CLASSIC.
This instrumentals hit the right spot, especially when you've went through situations that almost made you to lose yourself, but you came out with your mind still intact and your now focusing on yourself and the goals that you have set out for yourself.
honestly the only instrumental where i want the hook
Word!
Damn 10 years man is really crazy especially with this instrumental playing hope your’re doing good in all your ventures! I pray you are happy and enjoying the worderful hidden gems of life and not taking every second on this earth for granted man 10 years is crazy really hope you are good brother!

This is exactly how it feels. Riding in the car rapping the whole thing with ppl I’ll never forget 😢 good times for sure
this chorus just makes you bring back good memories....

Ts crazy hope you can look back and cherish that moment now
This has to be one of the best instrumentals of all time. This is just art.
I’m not even gonna lie I’ve cried a couple times listening to this because it made me think of someone I really care about but can never have
Dang bro that's deep but life will get better just wait
@@Ftv_Soul don’t lie to him :/ life is unpredictable
@@Ftv_Soul Lies.
Bro get a grip
@vouZy it’s a simple corny way for RUclips likes… you fish
This instrumental is much more favorable in my opinion
👌🏻 💯
It is because Drake's a terrible rapper and makes no sense.
@@empressink_ 👁👄👁
@@empressink_ 🤦🏽♂️out ur mind‼️
@@empressink_ you wouldn’t even have known of this song if it wasn’t for him, and besides, he raps better than a lot of current rappers
Tracks with the piano always gets me into an incredibly good mood and this right here, is TIGHT!!!
Factss
They always have me relaxed. I feel nothing can mess my day up.
timeless.
Perfect word for this
Are you and Ernie still butt buddies?
@Chi Towngod bro im dead😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
One of my favorite instrumentals of all time
I love how she never finishes saying "body." It sounds way better this way.
Almost six years later and stil fire. 40 is a scientist.
middle school man...those were the days
Still listening to this, reminding me of how I used to have no worries about the future. Will always stay close to my heart
This brings you right back to 2011…man…easily one of the best songs of all time
Classic my favorite instrumental by drake ever
I listen to this song when I think of a girl I used to love.
+zakary king Every dude got that one drake chick. that one chick he dedicate drake songs too lol
RS it's just like this song can put u to sleep or help u calm down I mean ionic ain't the only.one who gets mad nd wats a nice melody to keep u calm.
redcloud same, I'm listening to this song and it makes me think of the only girl I'm in love with that I can't have again because I messed up 😔
RS the world is fucked up in many ways
Word💯

This song actually sounds somewhat depressing. But it makes me think what my life will be like 10 years from now. God bless.
If you think this is depressing then I don't wanna know what you think about "Club paradise", wich has a really melancholic instrumental.
seriously get what you're saying. it sounds so good but i hate the depressed feeling i get when i listen to this
God bless you too🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏and anyone reading this message
10yrs from should be something you look forward too. It's this simple if you say you can or if you say you can't your right!!! Make your life what you want it to be
God bless you too💕
this shit actually gets me feeling a different way. It makes me think of all the things i can do in my only life because of all the different sacrifices and experiences ive been through
One of the greatest uses of a sample ever, shit makes me want to cry every time
What’s the sample?
@@TheBlackconsigliere nevermind my bad while there is a sample towards the end I was thinking of the hook which isnt a sample
still come back and listen to this. it gives me an overwhelming feeling of nostalgia that's lowkey addicting. love this instrumental and the hook.
if anyone is reading this, just know that we will figure things out no matter how hard it gets. keep your head up, and keep fighting. i am rooting for you stranger.
I remember I was in Changi airport in Singapore when this dropped and this song made me appreciate everything I was witnessing. This song, this whole album will forever be drakes best album 💯.
remember this my freshman year my friend let me hear it and I loved it and still play it to this day😃
Gotta give drake his flowers man fr . Him and his team ❤
Top 3 album all time for me
this is so so beautiful and otherworldly. Music is so timeless and incredible. Wow.
i miss 2012
Camaron Sandoval I miss early 2010s.
I miss it so damn much. the year I graduated high school. the year I found my one true love. would do anything to go back.
🥺
I miss 2016
FUN FACT: The beat to this song is an actual human heart beat, hence the song title being "over my dead body" 👀👀👀
Richard Diaz 💯💯💯💯
The beat is lively!
@@Theohybrid literally. Hahaha.
LIES
@@IllDawgable lol
Beautiful song man.
who still here in 2024 ?
Been here every year since ‘11 my brother 🙏🏼
Take care is a classic, there no way Drake could ghost write this!
This song reminds me of so much Yung memories when I was 4 years old. I can't belive I still listening to this old track from 2011 until today jeez thatz wonderful
Ah yes, memories. 2 six packs of cold pacific ale, sitting alone in my room, depressed and teary eyed, wondering where it all went wrong.
no one came to save me.
i moved closer to home later that year, took time off for myself, fixed relationships that were causing me anxiety, lived a little, changed it up a bit, got into new hobbies and fastforward to now i've never felt better.
moving back to the same city soon, things'll be better this time round.
word of advice: just take care of yourself. everything will keep going on but it's all for naught if you aren't fully there to experience it.
and no one will came to save you, it has to be you.
love you so much, you'll get through it, just like i did too.
U did great mate💪
One of my favorite instrumentals, I had no idea it was made by drake but I found out about from the masterpiece of an anime 86
One of his best albums👌
Yepp
Still here in 2024
Take me back to 2012 and let me live in that moment forever, no worries, no care in the world, just being happy! The simple life, growing up sucks.
Brings a lot of nostalgia 🥲
This beat go hard AF
This beat will never not just cut right through me..
Shit hits Different in 2020 makes me reminisce of my childhood
I’m so thankful a version without a drake verse exists
The actual song isnt bad (this is when I enjoyed his music) but ya this beat and hook hits SOOOOOO hard!
so many emotions with this one happy new year
I thank drake for this song, man it takes me back in my high school days in 2009 and 2010. I love it till now❤
This hit different after you listened to the original so much ❤
Literally gives me chills.. Here in 2024
One of the dopest beats and hook❤️
Well isn't this the most peaceful little toon?
Tj Johnson u mean tune ? Sorry for being 2 years late
Rose Torres 3 years** sorry for being 1 year late
Yup
Oops sorry for being 5 years late
@@WRXKADE19 haha nice one
i could listen to this all day long
12 People thought the like bar was so filled that it went the other way in reverse
That was fly bro. Keep at rapping man. Don't let nobody put you down.
See how,far he came now
RIP Akira Toriyama
This particular song plus rainymood is pure bliss.
Piece of art
We miss you Bron you always be the King , a real life Superhero!!!
love this version much more
This is such a vibe… 🤍
Drake has had so many legendary beats
this shit life changing
Man you can just relax and think on this beat well done
for a lot of people this song seems to make them feel nostalgic/sad and a lot of drake's songs do but this one in particular always gives me like god-like level strength inside. i play it when i'm angry it's a good release for me. mellow...
I love this instrumental
This beat touches my soul
Chantal Kreviazuk…absolutely haunting vocals. Incredible. I’ve listened to this track hundreds of times just to hear the hook
This song takes me back to simpler days but yet again to remembering the one that got away.
Timeless music man
got hit by nostalgia 🥹🥲🥲🥲
Same. this shit brings me back to high school
Chills. Thank you drake
my favorite song also and paradise
I see a nigga who been thru it sitting on the bus watching the rain hit the window leaving everything behind to just go home
MY FAVORITE DRAKE ALBUM...this came out 10 Years ago🤯🤯🤯🤯 #2011 to #2021
She's great.
2021 and I still listen to this beat it’s like the beat sending me messages lol.... this beat emotional 😭
it's really nice
Perfection
I broke up with my girl just to feel the extra hurt when I listen to this song
This is iconic!
yo..lots of ppl including myself are hella good but right now its not rli how good you are just who you know
Nostalgic af!!
I like this.
My fav jam🥰💖
so relaxing :')
2016 listen fire!!
Thanks to God drake will never die
2011 was the shit 🔥
When nun feel right i come back 2 this
This is beautiful
her name is chantal kreviazuk and she's the one who's featured in the song wich is the hook so think before you speak :D
How I'm feeling, it doesn't matter
'Cause you know I'm okay
Instead, I ask myself "why do you hurt me?"
When you know, you know I'm the same
I know, I know that you love me baby
They're trying to take you away from me
Only over my dead body
I think I killed everybody in the game last year, man fuck it I was on though
And I thought I found the girl of my dreams at a strip club, mm
Fuck it I was wrong though
Shout out all to all my niggas living tax free
Nowadays its six figures when they tax me
Oh well, I guess you lose some and win some
Long as the outcome is income
You know I want it all and then some
Shout out to Asian girls, let the lights dim sum
Shots came, I don't know where they was sent from
Probably some bad hoes about to take the hemp from
Yeah, you know me well nigga
Yeah, I mean you ain't the only real nigga
They got me on these white women like Seal nigga
Slave to the pussy but I'm just playing the field nigga, yeah
Are these people really discussing my career again?
Asking if I'll be going platinum in a year again
Don't I got the shit the world wanna hear again?
Don't Michael Jordan still got his hoop earing in?
Man all of your flows bore me, paint drying
And I don't ever be trippin' off of what ain't mine
And I be hearing the shit you say through the grapevine
But jealousy is just love and hate at the same time
It's been that way from the beginning
I just been playing, I ain't even know that I was winning
And this is the only sound you should fear
Man, these kids wear crowns over here and everything is alright
I know, I know that you love me baby
They're trying to take you away from me
Only over my dead body
You say I'm old news, well who the new star?
'Cause if I'm going anywhere, it's probably too far
Just performed at a Bar Mitzvah over in the States
Used half of the money to beat my brother's case
Red wine over Fed time
But shout out to the niggas that's doing dead time
And shout out to the bitches there when it's bedtime
And fuck you to the niggas that think it's their time
Yeah, don't make me take your life apart boy
You and whoever the fuck gave you your start boy
Or you wanna be a muthafuckin' funny guy?
Don't make me break your Kevin heart boy
Yeah, it's whatever. You know, feeling good, living better
I think maybe I was numb to it last year
But you know I feel it now more than ever
My city love me like Mac Dre in the Bay
Second album, I'm back paving the way
The backpackers are back on the bandwagon
Like this was my comeback season back, back in the day
And I met your baby moms last night
We took a picture together, I hope she frames it!
And I was drinking at the Palms last night
And ended up losing everything that I came with
Feel like I've been here before huh?
I still got ten years to go huh?
And this is the only sound you should fear
These kids wear crowns over here
And everything is all right
I know, I know that you love me baby
They're trying to take you away from me
Only over my dead body
I miss this style of Drake.
forreal
Drake u a genius for this beat.
this song feels like taking a night drive after a long day
Don't cry.
Dude it'd 2025 well about to don't chase happiness because sadness will come with. Live for the joy in and the moments.
