It's February 13th, 2017, which means it's one day before Valentine's Day and 8 years since Drake's breakthrough mixtape So Far Gone. As anyone who's listened to Drizzy's R&B-influenced project will tell you, it's no coincidence that the tape arrived just in time for everyone's favorite Hallmark holiday. Drake spends much of the project speaking about and directly to women, whether it's someone new who's caught his eye, a longtime crush, a flame that expired too soon, or an ex he can't stand the sight of. It's no secret that Drake lines can inspire some late night texts, in fact, there's an app that allows you to send messages entirely in Drake's words. Of course, there are a lot of different messages you may want to send your ex this Valentine's Day, so we've made an effort to go back through So Far Gone and categorize some of Drake's most personal lines for you.
