Parade on Cleveland Lyrics

[Part I]

[Intro: Drake]
Woah

[Verse: Drake]
How the fuck you out here goin' tit for tat? (Tit for tat)
I should've saw the signs, how could I miss that? (How could I miss that?)
Ayy, soon as I'm fresh out the box like a Tic-Tac
We havin' sex soon as I get my bitch back
It ain't gon' be sexy when I get my lick back
I'm about to mop up some boys, it's custodian time
Me and my thoughts is the loneliest time
Don't tell me 'bout loyalty, show me this time
Don't tell me 'bout loyalty, show me this time
Business is business, you owe me this time
Slime on your head, Nickelodeon time

[Chorus: Drake]
Oh, woah
Parade on Blevеland soon as I get home
I'm comin' home
I'm comin' homе

All the dawgs, all the lifers
All the pythons, all the vipers
Parade, parade on Bleveland soon as I get home
You already know, you already know
[Segue: Young Thug & Drake]
Hello, this is a prepaid call from Jeffery
An inmate at the Cobb county adult detention facility

To accept this call, press zero
To refuse this call, hang up or press one

Yo, what's up, my brother?
What's up, my brother?
Talk to me, what's the word?

Uh, I ain't doin' shit, man
Just pushin' more Peter, more sweeter, more completer
Than any Peter pusher around
See what I'm sayin', twin? Ha (Ha-ha-ha)


[Part II]

[Verse: Young Thug]
Spider back, I'm a big dawg, you a cat
How is that you was ever in the format?
Honeybun, on the bed, yeah, hundred racks
Sun's up, I ain't sleep, I been countin' stacks
Hands down, yeah, the big dawg comin' back
Think you good? Nigga, pants down, you smokin' crack
Michael Kors robe, mm-mm, nah, Michael Jackson
Back in like forty days, forty seconds
Backend after backend like I'm trappin'
Actually, I been trapped in, but I took a black bitch to Beverly Hills
Now she white, Michael Jackson

After we fuck, she told her friends, "Bitch, it's crackin'"
Made a jail call to your bitch, she say you down

You a bug in the grass, finna get ate by my cow
I'm just livin' my life on the jet, ridin' 'round
Two hoes with me, one white, the other one Bobby Brown

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

Parade on Cleveland represents a smooth introduction into Thugger’s project BUSINESS IS BUSINESS. It is track #1 on the album, produced by Metro Boomin, Kid Masterpiece & DAVID x ELI, and saw its' official release in June of 2023.

On the track, Drake and Young Thug rap over an R&B influenced beat, making for an unexpected, almost dreamy introduction to the album.

Before Thug’s verse, a voice recording indicating that a phone call is coming in from Cobb County Adult Detention Facility plays. Thug uses this opportunity to reassure fans that “Yeah, the big dog coming back”, indicating that he believes he’ll make it out of the Jail facility soon.

Parade on Cleveland acts as a tribute to Lil Keed who grew up on Cleveland Ave, Southwest Atlanta.
