    He sings, “Ever since I left the city, /You got a reputation for yourself now /Everybody knows and I feel left out/ Girl you got me down, you got me stressed out.” These lyrics give a sense that Drake’s sadness and loneliness is valid because he has lost the attention of his loved one. However, feminists argue that these feelings are not valid because the fault lies with Drake.…

    “Look what you’ve done by Drake” Ever since the first time I heard this song I’ve always felt so sad listening.

    Along in this stanza he reflects on the times at his childhood home 2014 Forest Hill Drive, a home physically far from perfect, until his mom defaulted on her loans, which caused the home he ever knew to become foreclosed. Uncertain of what his mom was going through, he explains and later apologizes that instead of being there to acknowledge his mother’s troubles, he was gladly indulging in women and chasing parties in New York City. Blaming himself for being selfish for chasing and enjoying his success, looking back on his life as an adult, he consequently is remorse about not being there for his loved ones. Fast forward in his life, now in a relationship, he is starting to notice that the way he treats his girlfriend is more robust and different in way compared to his relationship with his mother. Knowledgeable of this reality, he says, “And though it don’t always show I love her just like I love you” (verse 1 line 22), he reveals that although his past actions and relationships with others might suggest otherwise, however he wants her to know he loves her regardless of anything.…

    We understand that the son misses his father, specifically his voice. He misses and admires him by remembering their time together. We get our first point of the speakers perspective when he says “in something he has just said/to his son: a song” (6-7). We are introduced to the song here, not a song in the traditional sense, but about the father’s song of life that he shares with his son. This speaker’s perspective is a son whose father taught him how to grow up and become mature, along with learning his way and the background of being Native American.…

This is similar to when we find out that Mayella was abused by her father but still loves him because well, it’s her father. They both show unhealthy relationships and how bad things can be at home. The mood in both of this song and the book is desperate. They are both desperate for love and will do anything to stay by their family/man.…

    It is definitely important to remember Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ histories because it helps us understand the hardships they faced as a culture and it can further help us recognise how we can close the gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people share four main world views; culture, land, place and country and relationships. The world view, relationships, is conveyed many times in each of the literary texts by relating back to certain events that Aboriginal elders faced. Three texts that clearly represent the world view relationships are,; Change the Game, by the Colli Crew; Treaty, by Yothu Yindi and Took the Children Away, by Archie Roach. The Colli Crew’s song, Change the Game, is about the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people- mostly describing the people of the past; in the text, it states that they are singing from north Queensland near the border.…
