    “They might try to move funny with you. They might stab you in the back. They might do a lot of things to you,” Drake, 37, continued.

    “You’ll come to that realization, wherever you’re at in life. You’ve probably been there and you’ll be there again. That’s how life is. Sometimes it’s you and you alone by yourself.”

    The “God’s Plan” emcee abruptly ended his speech before playing Beyoncé’s anthem “Me, Myself and I.”

    The Grammy-winning rapper — born Aubrey Drake Graham — also sent a message when he played 50 Cent’s 2003 track “Many Men.”

    “Many men wish death upon me / Blood in my eye, dog, and I can’t see / I’m tryin’ to be what I’m destined to be,” the song goes.

    The “Family Matters” rapper’s speech comes after he reportedly unfollowed NBA stars LeBron James and DeMar DeRozan on Instagram after they showed support for Lamar.

    Fans assumed Drake removed James, 39, and DeRozan, 35, because they both attended Lamar’s Juneteenth concert over the summer.

    James enjoyed the show from the audience, while DeRozan joined the “Humble” rapper, 37, onstage as he performed his No. 1 Drake diss track, “Not Like Us.”

    On the hit record, Lamar accuses Drake of liking underage girls , which he has denied .

    The two rappers exchanged a series of diss tracks this year, with Drake alleging Lamar cheated on his fiancée, Whitney Alford, and questioning the paternity of their son.

    Their feud began in March when Lamar was featured on “Like That” with Future and Metro Boomin.

    In response to J. Cole name-dropping him on Drake’s song “First Person Shooter,” Lamar rapped, “Motherf—k the big three, n—a, it’s just big me.”
