Believe it or not, Drake has provided us with the soundtrack for our lives. When you're looking for the right words to say that can encapsulate how lucky you're feeling at a specific moment, you're going to sing the chorus of "Blessings." If you want to tell someone how happy you are for them, you're going to do the hook on "Make Me Proud."
