Song(s) of the Day #205

I just want someone or to feel not alone. Is that too much to ask for? I guess so. I love Gambino.

Childish Gambino- "So Fly" from Culdesac

"You are the bestest, I will obey you

They wanna know what, I couldn't say who

You are the only one who's ever really seen me

I know that I'm the reason that you don't watch any tv

I wanna lay on your stomach so bad

And it gets a little quiet in this bachelor pad

And I don't really understand the thing we had

I wanna try again, but it would just be sad

And oh, oh whoa

You are the only one who's ever let me be me

We can make it easy

We can do it simple

I'll be waiting right there

Promise to be gentle

Sittin' by your window

Girl, you're so fly to me

So fly. Girl you're so fly

So fly. Girl you're so fly

So fly. Girl you're so fly to me

So fly. Girl you're so fly

So fly. Girl you're so fly

So fly. Girl you're so fly to me"

Childish Gambino- "Be Alone" from EP

"I don't wanna be alone

I don't wanna be alone

I don't wanna be alone

Oh, oh, oh

'Cause ya know, somewhere inside

I cannot find

The feeling I got from you

No, somewhere inside

I cannot find

The feeling I got from you

Hard for a pitchfork, soft for a Rockefeller

Music was my side chick, but now we're moving in together

Always felt misunderstood, I guess I have to tolerate

My swag Jehovah Witness, dude, it never take a holiday

APC jeans, brown leather jacket on

Kitsuné cable knit, cardigan from Rag & Bone

Thick Filipino chick, homemade bracelet

Her booty make her just a rapper, she ain't gotta say shit

I'm someone they admire

Set the game ablaze, I'm an arcade fire

Laughed at my rides like my motion was funny

Yes, ashy to classy, my lotion is money

The ride is easy when the dollar's there to grease the wheels

Now everybody tell me what to do and how to feel

It seems the more I try to connect with the world

I am feeling more alone than I ever have felt before

I wanna pick up the phone, ask my dad how to handle it

But what will happen when my dad's not there to answer it?

I try to clear my mind of thoughts that only slow me down

Like when these niggas call me "faggot" and "we homies now"

But we are not homies, I just keep you around

'Cause all your talkin' is the noise I need to kill this sound

Have all these voices tellin' me no one can help me out

We are alone I'm just the only one to figure out"

Song of the Day #182

Childish Gambino- "Be Alone" from EP

"It seems the more I try to connect with the world

I am feeling more alone than I ever have felt before

I wanna pick up the phone, ask my dad how to handle it

But what will happen when my dad's not there to answer it?

I try to clear my mind of thoughts that only slow me down

Like when these niggas call me "faggot" and "we homies now"

But we are not homies, I just keep you around

'Cause all your talkin' is the noise I need to kill this sound

Have all these voices tellin' me no one can help me out

We are alone I'm just the only one to figure out

..

"You are the bestest, I will obey you"

These words I wrote for you when you were fuckin' other dudes

The only thing I need from you now is some solitude

Actions over words, "girls will be girls," that's all it proves

I used to be this guy sittin' with an open heart

Now my computer screen's the only place I feel a spark

I don't fuck with fake bitches except for when I fuck with fake bitches

Canon 5D to take pictures of these girls who wouldn't talk to me a year ago

49er chick askin' for money, she get zero, though"

Song of the Day #90

Childish Gambino- "Be Alone" from EP

Song of the Day #55

I'm pretty sure I've done this song of the day before. But it's pretty self explanatory. I turn to Donald Glover (or Kanye West/Jay-Z) songs far too much. "Be Alone" is one of those songs I've been listening to for over a year now. And after this week two bars the chorus and says it all.

"I don't wanna be alone
I don't wanna be alone
I don't wanna be alone
I don't wanna be alone
I don't wanna be alone
I don't wanna be alone"

"It seems the more I try to connect with the world

I am feeling more alone than I ever have felt before

I wanna pick up the phone, ask my dad how to handle it

But what will happen when my dad’s not there to answer it?"

Childish Gambino- "Be Alone" from EP

Song of the Day #14

Only been up an hour and I know I'll be listening to this on and off all day. I love the lyrics, Donald's flow is great, the chorus is simple but effective, and the beat is very nice. Just a song that resounds with me while being an all around good song.

Like when these niggas call me “faggot” and “we homies now”

But we are not homies, I just keep you around

‘Cause all your talkin’ is the noise I need to kill the sound

Of all these voices tellin’ me no one can help me out

We are alone I’m just the only one to figure out

I don’t wanna be alone

I don’t wanna be alone

I don’t wanna be alone

I don’t wanna be alone

I don’t wanna be alone

I don’t wanna be alone

‘Cause ya know, somewhere inside

I cannot find

The feeling I got from you

No, somewhere inside

I cannot find

The feeling I got from you"
