Have Some Love
Childish Gambino Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Have a word for your brother
Have some time for one another
Really love one another
It's so hard to find
Have a word for your brother
Have some time for one another
Really love one another
It's so hard to find

You got the power, you got the power
Of every hour, of every hour
I come to getcha and I know where you are
I come to getcha and I know where you are
It's getting hot, it's like a sauna
Then every night, in Arizona
They come to getcha when they grope in your mind
They think you creepy, getting down in your mind
Come to getcha, come to getcha
It doesn't matter, you making magic
I got the business to make a mind
I got the business to make a mind
And if you feel it, if you feel in your toes
And you there'll be nothing like nobody knows
But if you want it, you better want it

Have a word for your brother
Have some time for one another
Really love one another
It's so hard to find
Have a word for your brother
Have some time for one another
Really love one another
It's so hard to find
Have a word

Come on baby, oh
Darling no, no, no, no, no, no, no
That's right baby
That's right
I see wherever, wherever, wherever you are
(Wherever, wherever, wherever you are)
I see wherever, wherever, wherever you are
(Wherever, wherever, wherever you are)
Wherever, wherever, wherever you are
(Wherever, wherever, wherever you are)
Do no wrong now
That's right baby

There's a big wide world out there
I need to get in
We have got to bring this thing together
And I hope and I pray
We will find it someday
We have got to really stay together
So

Have a word for your brother
Have some time for one another
Really love one another
It's so hard to find
Have a word for your brother
Have some time for one another
Really love one another
It's so hard to find

That comment about being "an original fan" is so fucking close minded it hurts. As an original fan you should know that he stated he wanted to drop the Childish Gambino character and move onto doing something real. This is similar to what Filthy Frank/Joji is doing. People move on, and this is fucking amazing
