Drake, The Weeknd 'Live For' AUDIO & LYRICS With 'Kiss Land' & 'Nothing Was The Same' Release Approaching
The Weeknd enlisted Drake for Live For, a song off his upcoming album Kiss Land.
"And you have to do it all just to know where it gets you," The Weeknd sings. "Living dreams we could never afford now we're sitting in the back saying, this the sh-- that I live for."
Drake adds bars to the second verse rapping, "How long do you think it's going to take for y'all to fall? That's a serious question because I seriously question all of y'all."
The two artists previously collaborated on Crew Love, a song off Drake's sophomore album Take Care.
The Weeknd, whose real name is Abel Tesfaye, will release his sophomore album at on Sept. 10. He already premiered the album's title track in May.
"I'll admit baby, I'm a little camera shy, but exceptions can be made baby, cause you're too damn fly. For what it's worth, I hope you enjoy," he sings on the tune.
The record will be the follow-up to his compilation album Trilogy, which was released in 2012. The album has sold 355,000 copies to date, according to Nielsen SoundScan. It features the popular song Wicked Games.
Kiss Land comes a week before Drake will release his third album Nothing Was The Same. For the album, which hits stores on Sept. 17, Drake collaborated with Jay Z, Lil' Wayne and DJ Hudson Mohawke.
His third album will be the follow-up to 2011's Take Care. The rapper's second album peaked at No. 1 on Billboard, as did his debut album Thank Me Later in 2010. Take Care also won the Grammy for Best Rap Album at the 2013 award show and sold more than a million copies in the U.S. alone.
"This is my f--cking moment to say if I wanted to rap all the time, really rap, I would, but I also love to make music," he told GQ in July about his forthcoming album. "I'll do this for you right now. But it's for me, too. It's my story... I'm trying to get back to that kid in the basement. To say what he has to say. And I'm trying to make it last."
