Drake: I'm Upset Meaning
Song Released: 2018
I'm Upset Lyrics
-
The song was released before XXXtentacion was shot and killed. Drake was referring to pornography and the shooting had to do with his body part. Part of a double entendre and saying when he shoots other artist (metaphorically speaking) he destroys because he aims for the head and not below the neck. Because when he looks at porn is the only time he shoots below the neck. He is referring to killing them in the rap game.

Drake mentions in the song that his father has been paying alimony to his divorced wife since 1991, which must have been incredibly burdensome on his life. It seems as if the song is about women trying to get with and marry Drake only because he is rich and famous so that they can be set for life financially, even if they divorce. "They keep trying to get me for my soul," is probably referring to potential girlfriends who are fans of Drake, who would want to date him only because he is rich and famous. The reference to the shooting of XXXtentacion further cements the themes of violence and betrayal in the song. This same theme is also expressed by the skeletal hand and scorpion on the album cover, as well as the blood moon, which symbolizes betrayal.
