    [Intro: Drake, Aretha Franklin]

    02

    Now let me see ya prove it (Never miss)

    03

    Just let me see ya prove it

    04

    Alright

  2. 05

    [Verse]

    06

    The Pulitzer Prize winner is definitely spiralin'

    07

    I got your fucking lines tapped, I swear that I'm dialed in

    08

    First, I was a rat, so where's the proof of the trial then?

    09

    Where's the paperwork or the cabinet it's filed in?

  3. 10

    1090 Jake woulda took all the walls down

    11

    The streets woulda had me hidin' out in a small town

    12

    My Montreal connects stand up, not fall down

    13

    The ones that you're getting your stories from, they all clowns

  4. 14

    I am a war gеneral seasoned in prеparation

    15

    My jacket is covered in medals, honor and decoration

    16

    You waited for this moment, overcome with the desperation

    17

    We plotted for a week, and then we fed you the information

  5. 18

    A daughter that's eleven years old, I bet he takes it

    19

    We thought about givin' a fake name or a destination

    20

    But you so thirsty, you not concerned with investigation

    21

    Instead you in that Venice studio, it's a celebration

    You gotta learn to fact-check things and be less impatient

    23

    Your fans are rejoicin' thinkin' this is my expiration

    24

    Even the picture you used, the jokes and the medication

    25

    The Maybach glove and the drug he uses for less inflation

    Block noteChallenges the target's public standing

    TargetKendrick Lamar

    MeaningWhat it means: In “Your fans are rejoicin' thinkin' this is my expiration,” Drake questions whether Kendrick Lamar's attention, audience, or reputation reflects genuine respect. Why it was said: The track is part of Drake and Kendrick Lamar's 2024 exchange, a rapid sequence of response records that followed Kendrick's verse on “Like That.” Visibility can be mistaken for victory, so the artist recasts Kendrick Lamar's recognition as temporary, manufactured, or disconnected from credibility.

    27

    You dumb and reactive, nigga, I'm petty with dedication

    28

    What about the bones we dug up in that excavation?

    29

    And why isn't Whitney denyin' all of the allegations?

    Block noteQuestions the target's judgment

    TargetKendrick Lamar

    MeaningWhat it means: In “You dumb and reactive, nigga, I'm petty with dedication,” Drake characterizes Kendrick Lamar as unintelligent, careless, or unable to understand the situation being addressed. Why it was said: The track is part of Drake and Kendrick Lamar's 2024 exchange, a rapid sequence of response records that followed Kendrick's verse on “Like That.” The insult makes the target's decisions part of the evidence: a poor response can be framed not as strategy, but as proof that Kendrick Lamar never understood the contest.

  8. 30

    Why is she followin' Dave Free and not Mr. Morale?

    31

    You haven't seen the kids in six months, the distance is wild

    32

    Dave leavin' heart emojis underneath pics of the child

    33

    Speakin' of anything with a child, let's get to that now

    TikTok videos you collected and dissected

    Instead of bein' on some diss-direct shit

    37

    You rather fucking grab your pen and misdirect shit

    Block noteAttacks the target's ability to rap

    TargetKendrick Lamar

    MeaningWhat it means: In “You rather fucking grab your pen and misdirect shit,” Drake challenges Kendrick Lamar on writing, delivery, flow, or command of the microphone rather than relying only on a personal insult. Why it was said: The track is part of Drake and Kendrick Lamar's 2024 exchange, a rapid sequence of response records that followed Kendrick's verse on “Like That.” This goes to the qualification that gives Kendrick Lamar standing in a rap battle; if the craft is weak, the reply loses authority before its other claims are considered.

    My mom came over today, and I was like, "Mother, I—

    Multi-line diss block
    43

    This is trauma from your own confessions

    44

    This when your father leave you home alone with no protection, so neglected

    45

    That's why these pedophile raps and shit you so obsessed with, it's so excessive

    Block noteMakes the feud personal through family

    TargetKendrick Lamar

Why it was said: The track is part of Drake and Kendrick Lamar's 2024 exchange, a rapid sequence of response records that followed Kendrick's verse on “Like That.” Family references explain why the conflict feels personal: they raise the emotional cost for Kendrick Lamar and make the line more consequential than a routine comparison of rap skill.

    55

    Like if Dave really fucked your girl and got her pregnant, talk about breedin' resentment

    I'm not sure how to ease the sentiment, this shit's too intimate

    57

    I'm praying you recover from both incidents

    Block noteUses a relationship to provoke the target

    TargetKendrick Lamar

Why it was said: The track is part of Drake and Kendrick Lamar's 2024 exchange, a rapid sequence of response records that followed Kendrick's verse on “Like That.” The reference is designed to provoke an emotional response and make the dispute publicly humiliating, where silence can be portrayed as acceptance.
