The Real Meaning Behind Future's 'Life Is Good' Featuring Drake

Posted by Valentine Belue on Thursday, May 9, 2024

As the title may suggest, Future and Drake's "Life Is Good" is a celebration of their success. In the first verse, Drake seems happy to be proving his haters wrong: "Say my days are numbered but I keep waking up" (via Genius). In the chorus, the Canadian rapper also admits that his work schedule is pretty hectic: "Workin' on a weekend like usual / Way off in the deep end like usual (Like usual)."

Meanwhile, Future brags about his watch collection and spontaneous overseas trips: "I done flew one out to Spain to be in my domain and Audemars-ed the b***h, woo." For the record, Audemars Piguets watches can go for as much as $55,000. The rapper seems to be particularly loving them, as he once said that all of his romantic interests can be recognized by wearing an AP watch (courtesy of Future, of course).

In a 2020 interview with XXL, Future expanded on the real meaning of the song. "It's about life and being good and just enjoying life," he said. He also thinks we should be more appreciative of the lives we have. "So many tragedies and catastrophes and everything is going on in the world," Future continued. "And you want to enjoy life, as long as you have it. Waking up, breathing, well, you want to be able to soak it all up and be appreciative for every moment on this earth, every moment that you're living." Well said, Future!
