Chance the Rapper & Childish Gambino Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We feel the way that we create
Who ever knows what's real
Turn your backs to appreciate
And the day is gonna come
And the day is gonna come
And the day is gonna come
I know you know it, you know it
But you can't go choosing sides
But if you just show it, let me know it
Then I'll fight for you tonight
I'll fight for you
I'll fight for you, tonight
We take each others love
We know the way to use it all
The world can't turn enough
It never changes up for us
And the day is gonna come
And the day is gonna come
And the day is gonna come
When you decide who you'll become
I know you know it, you know it
But you can't go choosing sides
But if you just show it, let me know it
Then I'll fight for you tonight
I'll fight for you
I'll fight for you tonight
I'll fight for you
I'll fight for you tonight
Keep on fighting
Keep on fighting yeah, can't stop 'til it's time
'Til it, 'til it comes back
You don't gotta fight no more
This is my war put down your sword
Pack up, I'm strapped up, I got this, I promise
I think this is what they make back-up for
This is my score
Let me put something on the board
Your hand me down handicap secondhand trouble
That you try to juggle
You need a hand, hand me that
I'll hold the duffel, you shovel
I love you like blood do
Sea your shell scuffle and triumph
I beach your demons, now wipe off your sandy back
Shore, we fall, but standing back to back
I can't evacuate you in this situation
Tie your shoelace, I fall behind
You wait for, it's your boy
Got your forevermore
Rest your poor, bruised body and relax, score!
I know you know it, you know it
But you can't go choosing sides
But if you just show it, let me know it
Then I'll fight for you tonight
I'll fight for you
I'll fight for you tonight
I'll fight for you
I'll fight for you tonight
Dear Chance the Rapper,
The song "Fight for You" by Pia Mia portrays a deeply personal yet relatable message about fighting for the people we care about the most. The song talks about living in our own worlds and creating our own feelings, which speaks to the idea that while we don't always know what's real, we have the power to shape our own realities. The chorus, which repeats the line "I'll fight for you," is a testament to the lengths we'll go to protect and defend our loved ones.
The song also highlights the importance of showing our true selves and not choosing sides. As the lyrics say, "You can't go choosing sides, but if you just show it, let me know it, then I'll fight for you tonight." This sentiment speaks to the idea that authenticity and vulnerability can be powerful tools in forming deep connections with others.
The closing verse is particularly powerful, as it paints a picture of two people standing back to back, facing their demons together. The lyrics "I fall behind, you wait for, it's your boy, got your forevermore, rest your poor, bruised body and relax, score!" convey a sense of unwavering support and loyalty, reminding listeners that it's okay to lean on others when we need help.
Overall, "Fight for You" is an inspiring and uplifting song about the power of love and loyalty. It's a reminder that, no matter what happens, there's always someone who will stand by our side through thick and thin.

[Verse 1: Chance The Rapper]
Chance, acid rapper, soccer, hacky sacker
Cocky khaki jacket jacker
Slap-happy faggot slapper
Iraqi rocket launcher
Shake that Laffy Taffy, jolly raunchy rapper
Dang, dang, dang - skeet, skeet, skeet
She do that thing for three retweets
The album feel like '92
Now take that ball 'fore he three-peat
Chance, ho, acid, cruising on that LSD
Asked Joseph about my deal
He looked back said "hell yeah, let's eat!"
[Chorus: Chance The Rapper]
This shit my favorite song, you just don't know the words
But I still fuck with you, you just ain't never heard
It go like: count that stack, pop that cap then down that Jack
All my niggas hit that zan, and all my ladies bob that back
This my jam, this my jam, this my jam, this my jam
I'm 'bout that jam, I'm 'bout that jam, I'm 'bout that jam, I'm 'bout that jam
This my jam, this my jam, this my jam, this my jam
I'm 'bout that jam, I'm 'bout that jam, I'm 'bout that jam, I'm bout that jam
[Verse 2: Chance The Rapper]
Young Rascal Flatts - young ass kid ass could rap
Fuck all the faculty, tobacco-packing acrobat
Back-to-back packin' bags back and forth with fifths of Jack and
Fourths of weed, I'm back to pack on hands
With young Cletus to pat my back
Real nigga with a nose ring, that's right
Just here to rap them songs
Rag on my hair, wrap weed in Vegas, rockin' Vagabonds
Sang a song, oh you don't know? What?
Well, I still bang with you
Hang with you, sip drank with you
As long as I can sang with you like:
