Monks
Frank Ocean Lyrics
Mosh pits and bare chest
Stage diving sky diver
Spray the crowd with cold water
Now its mosh pits and wet tits
I think I need a cold shower
Cool waters
African girl speaks in English accent
Likes to fuck boys in bands
Likes to watch westerns
And ride me without the hands
She's on her own tour
But you're beautiful to me
Wave 'em high girl to the sky
But you're beautiful to me
We're in the clouds
Wave 'em high girl to the sky
But you're beautiful to me
Life in the clouds
Keep em high y'all
Beautiful stars
In the sky
Monks in the mosh pit
Stage diving Dahli Lama
Feet covered in cut flowers
They mosh for enlightenment
Clean chakra good karma
One with the water
Indian girl sleeps above the temple
Planning a run away young at heart
You found a boyfriend
And now you wanna get away, get away
Just a virgin lover on a getaway, get away
And at sunset they're gonna try and get away, get away
Abhaya Mudra
I never ask for much
But please keep up lover
We've got no choices left
The running's fast
Run run run run
You're beautiful to me
Run run run run you'd better run
You mean so much to me
In my world, in my world
We made it safely
Even with your father's army trailing us
We escaped him
Even with his archer's bows at our backs
What a great escape
But there's a long way still in fact
We're lost in a jungle underneath these clouds
There's a monsoon that never ends
A coke white tiger woke us from our slumber
To guide and protect us til the end
We're in the clouds
Wave 'em high now, to the sky
But you're beautiful to me
Keep em high y'all, show you right
But you're beautiful to me
Beautiful

He was born Christopher Edwin Cooksey (later legally changed to Breaux) in Long Beach, California, and moved to New Orleans with his family as a young child. He has helped pen tracks for Justin Bieber, John Legend, Brandy, and Beyoncé. In 2011, Ocean released his debut mixtape, Nostalgia, Ultra, for free via his Tumblr.
After high school, Ocean enrolled in the University of New Orleans to study English. However, he had to suspend his studies due to Hurricane Katrina and its devastating effects that took place in the summer of 2005. His home and personal recording facility were destroyed, and after briefly studying at another college, he dropped out and moved to Los Angeles, California to pursue a music career. Ocean joined Los Angeles-based collective OFWGKTA, whose members he met through mutual friends, in 2009. At the end of 2009, he met Tricky Stewart, who helped Ocean sign a contract with Def Jam Recordings as an artist; however, he was initially unable to build a successful relationship with the company. In an April 2011 interview, Ocean intimated that his relationship with Def Jam had strengthened since the release of his mixtape.
On April 28, 2011, Ocean was arrested on unspecified charges by the LAPD, and was released on the morning after on April 29, 2011. Ocean joined his OFWGKTA bandmates for the first time on tour from May 12 to May 19, 2011. On May 31, 2011, Def Jam released the single Novacane on iTunes soon followed by Swim Good Taken from his mixtape Nostalgia, ULTRA. Ocean's first "proper" album, Channel Orange was released on July 17, 2012. On April 23, 2015, he legally changed his name to "Frank Ocean" after attempting to do so a few times in the previous several years.
In 2016, he released the visual album Endless alongside his second studio album Blonde, following several years of delays. "Blonde" debuted at number one in the United States and the United Kingdom.
In 2017, Ocean released several singles, including "Chanel" and "Lens" through his Blonded Radio show, and made several appearances on other songs by artists like Calvin Harris, A$AP Mob, and Tyler, the Creator. The next year, he released his cover of "Moon River", a popular 1960s song from the film "Breakfast at Tiffany's". At the end of 2019, he released two more singles: "DHL" and "In My Room". At the beginning of April 2020, "Dear April" and "Cayendo" were released, the latter's title translating to "Falling" in English.
