The True Meaning Behind Get Along Better By Drake Ft Ty Dolla $Ign

When Drake and Ty Dolla $ign got together to collaborate on "Get Along Better," the song ended up seeing the two get very real, very fast. "Hold me closer in these / Trying times, supposed to be mine / Baby / I need some help just like anyone else / Hold me closer in these / Trying times, open your eyes / Baby," the two sing in the first verse, according to Genius. While that simply makes it seem like whoever is behind the lyrics needs to lean on the person they're with when things get tough, there's much more going on here.

"You said you felt something for me (Talk to 'em) / I don't know when / Based on the signals you send / Based on the way you apologized," the duo continues as the verse goes on. Making it clear that the relationship wasn't going so well at one point, the lyrics note that even though she went to him to address whatever had happened between them, she "had the nеrve to defend" the "mistakes that [she] made at the end." Adding a little more honest context, it was apparently the fact that she felt he "was too invested," which is why she was "forced ... to go and pretend."

While that could have been how the story ended, when this relationship fizzled out, another started that may have been way too close for comfort.
