Childish Gambino Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is it too much to ask for lyrics?
(Alright, alright)
(Royalty has never done a track together)
I mean it's 2014 man, c'mon really
(Well I thought we would get everybody on the same track)
You niggas could learn a lot by now
(I'll go first)
Stone Mountain
Give a fuck about these haters man
I'm the flyest that there's ever been
I'm always reppin' Stone Mountain
You know my show is sold out
You know my smoke is so loud
It's still about his business
Stay up out my business
Flow so vicious
When niggas talkin' shit, shut they mouth, catch what this is
I walk up in the party, we took all the bitches
They love how I move, we might need a minute
God damn, Summer looking like son of Sam, I'm killin' niggas
Hang with models and a couple strippers
She love my music so I nutted in her
Damn I'm decent, Liam Neeson
I'm takin' over, you plain sober
Gassed up and you finished last
I'm crying nigga, that's tear gas
Woooh, now I'm flexing
Was that fire? Bitch you guessed it (Oh shit!)
I bet you I can make that ass hot
C'mon bae, drop it like a ass shot
Say my sixteen will make that ass hot
Song done, drop it like a ass shot
Boy stuntin' got they ass hot
Go on nigga, drop 'em like a ass shot
Jump on this beat and get they ass hot
Go on girl, drop it like a ass shot
I am, the prince, two cups, always
Our team, got money, stunt hard, so don't hate
Fall off, no way, we run it, it's too late
We smoke sour, call that flowers
I just blew, a bouquet
My girl, so sweet, like Crème brûlée
But still, she that hood, like red Kool-Aid
We on top, toupée, I got hits, like touché
I just did Rome in one day

I'm independent man and still doin' major
Young King so flashy got me lookin' like lazers
Atlanta housewife I can make ya like Phaedra
So let's play my, I'mma play ya
Get bands, then head to la playa

Start her off with gin and tonic, mine's a double
Out in Vegas fool, you know I'm bettin' double
Double your car note, double your mama rent
Ain't shit but house money, I ain't spent a cent
Mo' money mo' problems, yeah that's official

So I feed my boo boo hard that moo moo bags
If she need mo', then girl I miss you, bye
But ain't no lookin' back
Cause I know it's a salt pile (you salty?)
I'm goin' Chevy with metallic fuckin' gun style
No door handle, she high tryna figure how
While my auto mobile looks like Girls Gone Wild
That's top off, nigga drop offs
Slidin' dirty with yo' dame
Og sativa baby, watch ahead for that air plane
Fuck with my money, and I'm at your house like the mail came
You meet the Swank lion, beast mode, untamed

Go on nigga, drop 'em like a ass shot
Jump on this beat and get they ass hot
Go on girl, drop it like a ass shot
Big homie have you seen her
She got the dope breath, all white nina
Packed like Serena, maybe Trina

So of course he came to give you all these courses
And you can't ignore 'em, cause these hoes adore 'em
Words hot, don't slur 'em
I just speak up, so please ho, keep up
Please ho, keep up
Ok, ok, ok, she ain't getting money, no way
I met her on a Monday, but I fucked her back to Sunday
I told her she my Brandy, I'm her one and only one Ye
Till she drove off the driveway in her '97 Hyundai, bitch
(Alright, alright)

But ain't no lookin' back
Cause I know it's a salt pile (you salty?)
I'm goin' Chevy with metallic fuckin' gun style
No door handle, she high tryna figure how
While my auto mobile looks like Girls Gone Wild
That's top off, nigga drop offs
Slidin' dirty with yo' dame
Og sativa baby, watch ahead for that air plane
Fuck with my money, and I'm at your house like the mail came
You meet the Swank lion, beast mode, untamed
I bet you I can make that ass hot
C'mon bae, drop it like a ass shot
Say my sixteen will make that ass hot
Song done, drop it like a ass shot
Boy stuntin' got they ass hot
Go on nigga, drop 'em like a ass shot
Jump on this beat and get they ass hot
Go on girl, drop it like a ass shot
Big homie have you seen her
She got the dope breath, all white nina
Packed like Serena, maybe Trina
Shit I don't know, they both got ass
So of course he came to give you all these courses
And you can't ignore 'em, cause these hoes adore 'em
Words hot, don't slur 'em
I just speak up, so please ho, keep up
Please ho, keep up
Ok, ok, ok, she ain't getting money, no way
I met her on a Monday, but I fucked her back to Sunday
I told her she my Brandy, I'm her one and only one Ye
Till she drove off the driveway in her '97 Hyundai, bitch

Line by Line Meaning
Stone Mountain
I always represent Stone Mountain, and I don't care about haters because my show is sold out and my music is loud.
It's still about his business
Stay up out my business
I take my music seriously, so stay out of my personal life and don't talk shit about me.
Flow so vicious
When niggas talkin' shit, shut they mouth, catch what this is
My rap is top-notch, and if anyone disses me, they'll regret it because I'll shut them up with my skills.
Damn I'm decent, Liam Neeson
I'm takin' over, you plain sober
I'm a great rapper, and I'm taking the industry by storm. If you're not on my level, you're just sober and boring.
Gassed up and you finished last
I'm crying nigga, that's tear gas
If you're overconfident and don't focus on your craft, you'll fail and be left behind. And if anyone tries to mess with me, I'll make them cry.
I bet you I can make that ass hot
C'mon bae, drop it like a ass shot
Say my sixteen will make that ass hot
Song done, drop it like a ass shot
Boy stuntin' got they ass hot
Go on nigga, drop 'em like a ass shot
Jump on this beat and get they ass hot
Go on girl, drop it like a ass shot
I'm so confident in my rap skills that I can make anyone dance and get wild. And everyone who tries to compete with me will fail miserably.
We smoke sour, call that flowers
I just blew, a bouquet
My team and I smoke a lot of weed and we call it flowers. And I just smoked so much that it's like I inhaled a bouquet.
My girl, so sweet, like Crème brûlée
But still, she that hood, like red Kool-Aid
My girlfriend is sophisticated and sweet like Crème brûlée, but she's also from a rough neighborhood like red Kool-Aid.
Mo' money mo' problems, yeah that's official
I just throw cash at it, that's my issue, it's hard
Having more money can come with more problems, and I deal with those problems by throwing money at them. It's a hard life, but I'm handling it.
That's top off, nigga drop offs
Slidin' dirty with yo' dame
Og sativa baby, watch ahead for that air plane
I drive around with the top off and women in my car. I also smoke weed while driving, so watch out for cops.
Big homie have you seen her
She got the dope breath, all white nina
Packed like Serena, maybe Trina
Shit I don't know, they both got ass
I'm asking my friend if he's seen a girl with great looks and a great body, and I don't care if she's like Serena or Trina.
Ok, ok, ok, she ain't getting money, no way
I met her on a Monday, but I fucked her back to Sunday
I told her she my Brandy, I'm her one and only one Ye
Till she drove off the driveway in her '97 Hyundai, bitch
I met a girl who's not rich, but I slept with her multiple times. I told her she's my Brandy and I'm her only man, but then she left in her old car, and I don't care.
