[Verse 1: Normani]
We’ve all been searchin’ for somethin’
Somethin’ that’s bigger than us to believe in
[Refrain: Normani]
Who knew a star was so close it could touch us?
Light up our hearts, lead …
[Verse 1: Jussie Smollett & Rumer Willis, Both]
I can get
Rediculous
When I don’t have you
And I need my fix
Your perfume smells like licorice
Wanna pull your hair every time we kiss
I like …
[Verse]
Yo Kiss of Death, letting the semi ring
You know they say if you don’t stand for nothing
You’ll fall for anything
Preferably I’d rather hustle than do stick ups
Call me, your number’s …
Can’t even focus now
All up in my ear, girl you need to settle down
You can’t play like that with all of these folks around
Girl, I know that look but no, …
I was reaching for heaven
It became my obsession
But I guess it was more like a curse and less like a blessin’
And It was perfect on paper
But there weren’t any layers
And …
[Verse]
I got my eyes on you, you’re everything that I see
I want your hot love and emotion endlessly
I can’t get over you, you left your mark on me
I want your hot love and emotion endlessly 1
[Hook]
Cause you’re a good girl and you know it
You act so different around me 2
Cause you’re a good girl and you know it
I know exactly who you could be 3
Just hold on, we’re going home
Just hold on, we’re going home
It’s hard to do these things alone
Just hold on, we’re going home 4
[Verse + Hook]
[Bridge: Majid Jordan]
You’re the girl, you’re the one
Gave you everything I loved 5
I think there’s something, baby
I think there’s something, baby 6
[Hook]
Drake is singing that he is completely in love with his girl, such that everywhere he turns he finds a hint of her and it will be hard to let her go because she has firmly cemented her place in his heart. The line ‘You left your mark on me’ is an echo from three other songs namely, Best I Ever Had, Take Care and Find Your Love, music videos by Drake.
He sings of one of the unique traits about her, which is that she acts in a different way when she is around him as when compared to how she acts when in the company of others. It could also have the meaning that she is also trying to let him know that he is special in her own way and even when she puts on a show Drake can still see the good girl within her.
Drake has reviewed her qualities and he thinks that she is suited to be more than just a girlfriend.
He uses this line to confirm that he would like it very much if this lady was his wife and hence the ‘just hold on, we are going home’ and how hard is to be alone where society dictates that everyone should be with someone. It may also mean that he is doing something that he is attached to and doesn’t want to leave it just yet.
Majid Jordan tells the girl that she is the chosen one and he gave her the things that he valued most, to show her just how valuable she was to him.
He completes the song by reaffirming that this girl has the potential to become more than just a girlfriend.

This song is about sex. He contrasts her being a “good girl” (good girls generally don’t put out easily) with being “different around me”, implying that she’s more sexually aggressive with him. He seems to be telling her that they’re heading home to have sex, since he noticed that she’s horny, and is telling her to bottle up her sex drive until they get alone in the bedroom.
