About This Track

'Mine' is a two-part track from Beyoncé's self-titled fifth album, featuring Drake. The song blends alternative R&B with trap elements, African beats, and muted modern hip-hop, according to production notes credited to Noah "40" Shebib. The structure shifts between introspective verses and Drake's refrain about devotion to a "good girl", the contrast between private doubt and public declaration anchoring the arrangement.

Beyoncé opens with post-natal anxiety and distance, singing about conversations about breakups and separations, unsure whether the relationship will survive the strain. The second half pivots to possessive certainty, the chorus built around the repeated claim "you're mine", framed as both reassurance and ultimatum. The lyric "we should get married" arrives as a late-night thought rather than a proposal, the song catching the moment before commitment hardens into decision.

Drake's contributions stay in the refrain, a looped endorsement that never quite engages with the uncertainty Beyoncé voices. The production layers Afrobeats textures beneath the trap framework, the rhythm section doing much of the emotional work the lyrics leave unresolved.

"Mine" is a track by Beyoncé, from the album BEYONCÉ, released 13th December 2013. It's filed under Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 17 articles about Beyoncé.

Lyrics

Mine

[Part I]

[Verse: Beyoncé]

I've been watchin' for the signs

Took a trip to clear my mind, oh

Now I'm even more lost

And you're still so fine, oh my, oh my

Been havin' conversations about breakups and separations

I'm not feelin' like myself since the baby

Are we gonna even make it? Oh

'Cause if we are, we're takin' this a little too far

If we are, we're takin' this a little too far

Baby, if we are, we're takin' this a little too far

With me bein' wherever I'm at

Worried 'bout wherever you are

We're takin' this a little too far

We're takin' this a little too far

We're takin' this a little too far

[Part II]

[Refrain: Drake]

Know you wanna roll with a good girl

Do it big, do it all for a good girl

One time, this is a song for the good girl

Don't sleep when you know you got it good, girl

One time, this is a song for the good girl

Wanna roll, wanna roll with a good girl

One time, this is a song for the good girl

And I still keep it hood, still treat you like I should, what's up?

[Verse 1: Beyoncé]

On my mind, up past my bedtime, no rest at the kingdom

Alone in my place, my heart is away, all that I can think of is

We should get married, we should get married

Let's stop holdin' back on this and let's get carried away

[Pre-Chorus: Beyoncé]

Stop makin' a big deal out of the little things

'Cause I got big deals and I got little things

Got everything I'm asking for but you

Stop makin' a big deal out of the little things

Let's get carried away

Come right now, you know where I stay

[Chorus: Beyoncé & Drake, Beyoncé]

I just wanna say, you're mine, you're mine

I just wanna say, you're mine, you're mine

Fuck what you heard, you're mine, you're mine

All I'm really askin' for is you

You're mine, you're mine (Yeah)

I just wanna say, you're mine, you're mine

Fuck what you heard, you're mine, you're mine

Long as you know who you belong to

[Refrain: Drake]

Know you wanna roll with a good girl

Do it big, do it all for a good girl

One time, this is a song for the good girl

Don't sleep when you know you got it good, girl

One time, this is a song for the good girl

Wanna roll, wanna roll with a good girl

One time, this is a song for the good girl

And I still keep it hood, still treat you like I should, what's up?

[Verse 2: Drake]

From eight until late, I think 'bout you

You own my nights, I don't know what to do, do

I can't get no rest, can't get no sleep, yeah

This whole thing got way too deep and we should

[Pre-Chorus: Drake]

Stop makin' a big deal out of the little things

'Cause I got big deals and I got little things

I got everything I'm askin' for but you

Stop makin' a big deal out of the little things

Let's get carried away

Come right now, you know where I stay

[Chorus: Beyoncé & Drake, Beyoncé]

I just wanna say, you're mine, you're mine

I just wanna say, you're mine, you're mine

Fuck what you heard, you're mine, you're mine

All I'm really askin' for is you

You're mine, you're mine (Yeah)

I just wanna say, you're mine, you're mine

Fuck what you heard, you're mine, you're mine

Long as you know who you belong to

[Refrain: Drake]

Know you wanna roll with a good girl

Do it big, do it all for a good girl

One time, this is a song for the good girl

Don't sleep when you know you got it good, girl

One time, this is a song for the good girl

Wanna roll, wanna roll with a good girl

One time, this is a song for the good girl

And I still keep it hood, still treat you like I should, what's up?

[Break: Beyoncé]

(All I'm really askin' for is you, yeah)

(Long as you know who you belong to)

[Part III]

[Verse: Drake]

Yeah, yeah, yeah

(Pull up on you) I gotta pull up on you

You gon' make me have to pull up on you

Don't go ghost on me, I'ma go "Thriller" on you

I'ma just (Pull up on you)

I'ma let my hands do the talkin' when I see you, baby girl

I miss feelin' on you (Pull up on you)

I miss everything that's real about you

And that's everything about you, that's just how I feel about you (Pull up on you)

Been about you and I'm still about you, but

We ain't finished talkin' (Pull up on you)

I told you you don't need to worry 'bout them bitches

All them fives need to listen when a ten is talkin' (Pull up on you)

'Cause they don't wanna see you happier than them

And, girl, you swear they all your friends and that's been a problem (Pull up on you)

You the one they hate, this come with that (Yeah)

I know you think it's funny that your ex is not a runnin' back

But that nigga came runnin' back (Pull up on you)

And you tell me you done with that

And I believe it's true

Long as you know who you belong to

Oh, oh-oh-oh

[Outro: Beyoncé]

All I'm really askin' for is you

Yeah
