Drake is letting the world (and Chris Brown) know exactly how he feels about Rihanna in his latest single "Days In The East." The 27-year-old dropped another new song today (Apr. 3) and it seems like he used the track to confess his love for the "Stay" singer.
Even though Drake didn't name drop, it's easy to tell Rihanna must have been on his mind. Check out some of the lyrics below:
"Told you about givin' him chances on chances on chances/He's not holdin' you down, he's holdin' you back," he raps at one point in the song.
As everybody knows, Rihanna used to date Chris Brown. Over the years the songstress has broken things off with Drake to get back together with Brown. In a 2011 interview Drake actually opened up about how Rihanna would dump him for Brown.
"At the time it hurt, but she didn't mean to," he said, according to the Daily Mail. "I'll never put that on her. I was hurt because I slowly started to realize what it was. I guess I thought it was more."
"Waking up in Amsterdam with the boy/Long flight home, another xan for your boy," Drake said in the song.
Last month, Rihanna was spotted in London and Amsterdam with Drake as he traveled for his "Would Like a Tour?" tour. That's around the time reports surfaced that the two were back together.
At the beginning of the song, Drake says "Why you keep asking me about her? She's not here right now, she's not here right now."
The "Draft Day" rapper is constantly asked about his relationship with Rihanna. He recently opened up about their "friendship" in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine.
"She's the ultimate fantasy. I mean, I think about it. Like, 'Man that would be good.' We have fun together," he told the magazine. "She's cool and s**t. but we're just friends. That's my dog for life."
The most obvious reference that Drake was singing about Rihanna: lyrics from her song "Stay" could be heard in the background at one point.
