Drake “In My Feelings” Lyrics

[Intro: City Girls]
Trap, TrapMoneyBenny
This shit got me in my feelings
Gotta get it out
Real Drake vibes, ya know?

[Verse 1: Drake]
Kiki, do you love me? Are you riding?
Say you'll never ever leave from beside me
'Cause I want ya, and I need ya
And I'm down for you always
KB, do you love me? Are you riding?
Say you'll never ever leave from beside me
'Cause I want ya, and I need ya
And I'm down for you always   

[Chorus: Drake]
Look, the new me is really still the real me
I swear you gotta feel me before they try and kill me
They gotta make the whole world feel me
Always been a OG, now they tryna clone me   

[Verse 2: Drake]
Resi, do you love me? Are you riding?
Say you'll never ever leave from beside me
'Cause I want ya, and I need ya
And I'm down for you always
JT, do you love me? Are you riding?
Say you'll never ever leave from beside me
'Cause I want ya, and I need ya
And I'm down for you always   

[Chorus: Drake]
Look, the new me is really still the real me
I swear you gotta feel me before they try and kill me
They gotta make the whole world feel me
Always been a OG, now they tryna clone me   

[Bridge: Drake]
Broke the code, I broke the code
Yeah, yeah
I don't even need to do the most
Yeah, yeah
I just want somebody I can chill with
I can build with
I been waiting on you all my life
All my life, all my life

[Chorus: Drake]
Look, the new me is really still the real me
I swear you gotta feel me before they try and kill me
They gotta make the whole world feel me
Always been a OG, now they tryna clone me   

[Outro: City Girls]
Bring that ass, bring that ass, bring that ass back
Bring that ass, bring that ass, bring that ass back
Bring that ass, bring that ass, bring that ass back
Woo, woo

Drake “In My Feelings” Meaning

“In My Feelings” explores love, loyalty, and self-identity, wrapped in an infectious beat that turns introspective themes into a celebration. Drake’s signature use of colloquialisms and insider language reinforces his Toronto roots, while the track’s heavy influence from New Orleans bounce, including samples from Magnolia Shorty’s “Smoking Gun” and Lil Wayne’s “Lollipop,” cements its rhythmic appeal.

Drake opens with a plea for love and loyalty, repeatedly asking, “Kiki, do you love me?” Initially linked to Keshia Chanté, “Kiki” was later revealed as K’yanna Barber, a past romantic connection. He follows with “KB,” further personalizing his longing. Drake grapples with authenticity in fame, declaring, “The new me is really still the real me.” He contrasts two types of women: one valuing authenticity (From the block like you Jenny) and another drawn to wealth (What’s your net-net-net worth?). The second verse shifts to City Girls’ Yung Miami and JT, aligning with Drake’s habit of uplifting rising artists. He also shouts out producer TrapMoneyBenny, who crafted the track with OVO 40 and BlaqNmilD.

The song’s New Orleans roots are reinforced through Magnolia Shorty’s sample, seamlessly blending with City Girls’ vocals and Drake’s storytelling. The outro features a clip from Atlanta, where Zazie Beetz’s character humorously desires a selfie with Drake for social media clout, reinforcing the track’s theme of validation in modern relationships.
