Song of the Day #175

Childish Gambino- "Heartbeat" from  Camp

"[Hook x2]

I wanted you to know

That I am ready to go, heartbeat

My heartbeat

I wanted you to know

Whenever you aren't around, can't speak

I can't speak

[Verse 1]

I know what your boy like

Skinny tie and a cuff tight

He go and make breakfast

You walk around naked

I might just text you

Turn your phone over, when it's all over

No settling down, my text go to your screen

You know better than that

I come around when you least expect me

I'm sitting at the bar when your glass is empty

You thinking that the songs coming on to tempt me

I need to be alone like the way you left me

You start calling, you start crying

I come over, I'm inside you

I can't find you

The girl that I once had

But the sex that we have, isn't half bad

The text say that "It's not fair"

That's code for "He's not here"

And I'mma flirt with this new girl

And I'mma call if it don't work

So we fuck, till we come, to conclusions

All the things that we thought we were losing

I'm a ghost and you know this

That's why we broke up in the first place

Cause

[Hook x2]

[Verse 2]

It's late night Thursday

I know that you heard me

But you don't want the same thing

Well two can play that game

So I'm chilling with my girlfriend

But she not my real girlfriend

She got a key to my place but

She's not my real girlfriend

Stupid, so dummy

Say the wrong thing and wrong girls come runnin'

I'm paranoid that these girls want something from me

And it's hard to make a dime go one hundred

And my dude freakin' out over a worse fate

She on time, but she late for they first date

Cause he went and tried out all new condoms

Slipped off in a threesome, good problems?

Right? Wrong

Askin' him if she gonna play games

With the super smash brothers, but none of them you

I miss the sex when you kiss whenever you through

Sixty-nine is the only dinner for two

I was wrong, but would you have listened to you?

Uh, you were crazy

I got a heart, but the artichoke

Is the only thing girls want when you in that smokin' light

[Hook x2]

[Verse 3]

So we're done? This the real shit?

We used to hold hands like field trips

I'm a jerk, but your dude is a real dick

I read his posts on your wall and I feel sick

He ain't cool, he ball and all that

But he just a fake nigga who blog in all caps

You couldn't wait to date

I'm going straight for your thighs like the cake you ate

I give a fuck about the niggas that you say you hate

You know that I’m the best when I’m a-ffection-ate

I'm the best that you had, face it

J and Keyshia are related, racist

I give you money, then you burn it, like you made off

She ain't a killer, but she'd fucking blow your head off

I know he wondering, "What the fuck you hiding?"

That we dated like raps about Bin Laden

Ayo, fuck this

Are we dating? Are we fucking?

Are we best friends? Are we something in between that?

I wish we never fucked, and I mean that

But not really, you say the nastiest shit in bed and it’s fuckin’ awesome"

Third time I've used this song of my blog. I love the lyrics in this so much, the chorus is amazing and the beat is incredible.

Song(s) of the Day #56

All Childish Gambino edition. Been listening to this album the past two days driving between the houses moving stuff. All have lines and chorus' that already mean a lot to me and I feel have a bearing on my life. Not just that the lyrics are done well, the beats are amazing and they're just fantastic songs. Last year in November I couldn't wait for this album to drop. It took me a couple months to really get into this album, Camp, and I now adore it. Had it not been for Watch the Throne, this year and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy last year, Donald Glover would have my album of the year two years running now.

Childish Gambino- "Letter Home" from Camp

"You're the only girl that I have ever wanted

Every other girl is trying to be you

My mama says that I should write you letters

But I think you're with other dudes

Take my hand, you'll like it

You don't even have to call

Yes I've had some alcohol, I'm sorry

Take my hand

You don't even have to call

You're somewhere out there after all

You're all I ever wanted

You're all I ever wanted

You're all I ever wanted"

Childish Gambino- "Heartbeat" from Camp

"She ain't a killer, but she'd fucking blow your head off

I know he wondering, "What the fuck you hiding?"

That we dated like raps about Bin Laden

Ayo, fuck this

Are we dating? Are we fucking?

Are we best friends? Are we something in between that?"

Childish Gambino- "L.E.S." from Camp

"Baby, you're the baddest

Baby, you're the baddest girl and uh

Nobody else matters

Nobody else matters girl and uh

We're kissing in the bathroom

We're kissing in the bathroom girl and uh

I hope nobody catch us

But I kinda hope they catch us"

"When I'm depressed you're someone I run to"

"Ooh girl, I wanna know

Are you ready to cry, cause I'm no good, no good

Ooh girl, I wanna try

I'm an awful guy and I'm always away

And I'm tryin' to say

I'mma piece of shit

Believe in this

I'm tellin' you

Cause we barely knew, what we had

I'm not that bad, the fun we had

Ooh"

Childish Gambino- "Kids (Keep Up)" from Camp

"If we were kids

I'd want to give you everything that you would want

Those other boys

They gave you toys, but all they wanna do is

Keep up

Keep up, keep up, keep up

That's all I want, keep up

Keep up with me, keep up

Keep up

Keep up, keep up, keep up

That's all I want, keep up

Keep up with me, keep up"

"The chips are up and on my shoulder, you heard me?

I take it out on girls who don't even deserve it"

"The only thing I put before me is do re

If you had told me the truth we’d be ok"

Song(s) of the Day #10

So on my way to school and in first period I listened to Childish Gambino's first official album release, Camp. With me being a pretty big Donald Glover fan, of course I loved it. On the way home I stopped at Target to grab the physical copy of the album ($8, not too shabby). But after the first three listens yesterday there were two songs (so far) that got stuck in my head. These are those two songs. On the album they're starting off the meat of the album itself. The beats are nice (especially the background to "Letter Home" which I already adore), the lyrics are real, and the rapping is on point. Not much more you can ask for me music-wise. *Nods head to the beats*

"You're the only girl that I have ever wanted

Every other girl is trying to be you

My mama says that I should write you letters

But I think you're with other dudes

Take my hand, you'll like it

You don't even have to call

Yes I've had some alcohol, I'm sorry

Take my hand

You don't even have to call

You're somewhere out there after all

You're all I ever wanted

You're all I ever wanted

You're all I ever wanted"

"She ain't a killer, but she'd fucking blow your head off

I know he wondering, "What the fuck you hiding?"

That we dated like raps about Bin Laden

Ayo, fuck this

Are we dating? Are we fucking?

Are we best friends? Are we something in between that?"
