“CORSO” is the introduction to the plot that we will later go through as the album progresses. Tyler has done this on multiple occasion in his discography such as “WOLF” from Wolf, in which we are introduced rather abruptly the characters that will play out over the course of the album.
The song title could also mean that Tyler dropping an album is a festivity in itself, since it is the first major song on "CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST".
According to Tyler, this song was also originally going to feature A$AP Rocky, an artist he often has collaborated with in the past. Unfortunately, he never responded to the request.
“CORSO” debuted at #55 on the Hot 100 during the charting week of July 10, 2021.

Tyler the Creator Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On this here stage tonight is something legendary (yeah)
He goes by the name of The Creator (crazy, ayo)
But you, you call him Tyler Baudelaire (look)
I be talkin' that fresh, shit, I don't need gum (nah)
Cookie crumbs in the Rolls, never no weed crumbs (no)
He ain't talk to his bitch in three days (no)It ain't gotta be this way, I'm down for the threesome (woo)
I might buy a boat (nigga, yeah)
Depends if Capri got space, don't really need one
I could go in the wintertime, baby, I bleed sun
Find another nigga like me 'cause I ain't seen one (tell 'em, no)
Pull up in that, uh, whatchamacallit? (nyoom)
Played a couple demos at Madison Square Garden
And tell them motherfuckers at Sony I'm not callin'
I'm plottin' on a billi, chili in my garden, yo
Alright, I admit it
We just been playin' with you niggas, man
T, I think you need to load that second clip
B-Hop, uh, French Waltz, uh
She say like the Royce and I'm like, "Which one?
I got two, hun," look (let's go)
Catch me in my other, other, other, other crib, that's my AKA
Hurricane-proof all the views, shit like "A Bay Bay!" (damn)
A fuzzy hat, ascot, passport got tattoos
Slim nigga, big dick with a fuckin' gap tooth
Where you been? (Money)
Call me Mr. Always On Some Shit You Never Seen (huh)
In that mansion, livin' single, bitch, I'm Maxine
"Niggas of you status shouldn't talk"Give a fuck about your thoughts, call me if you get lost, bitch
Okay, now you understand what we came here to do, right?
Oh yeah, me, I go by the name of DJ Drama
And on my side, that's Tyler Baudelaire
AKA Bunnyhop
AKA The Creator
Call me if you get lost, suckers
We didn't come to play with' you niggas
Look, tried to take somebody bitch 'cause I'm a bad person
I don't regret shit because that (woo) worth it
In the end, she picked him, I hope when they fuckin'
She still thinkin' of me 'cause I'm that perfect
I'ma get that deep text when it first surface
Better send it to my ego 'cause that shit hurtin'
Hope y'all shit workin' (true story), I'm a psycho, huh?
Don't give a fuck, you left my heart twerkin'
Movin', losin' grip on my doin's
Eyes is cryin' on the jet, cruisin'
'Bout to sweat millions just to fill voids up
Drama, I need you (yessir), can you turn the noise up?
Can you turn the noise up? Can you turn the noise up? (go, go, go, go)
Turn the fuckin' noise up, Odd nigga, my heart broken
Remember I was rich, so I bought me some new emotions
And a new boat, 'cause I rather cry on the ocean
It's T, baby, uh
Hahahaha, I tried to tell y'all
I don't even like using the word "bitch"
It just sounded cool
The opening verse of Tyler the Creator's song CORSO serves as a way for the rapper to introduce himself and to establish his alter-egos – Tyler Baudelaire, Bunnyhop, and The Creator. He then goes on to express his confidence and self-importance, highlighting his wealth, his preferences, and his musical achievements. Tyler boasts about his status as a unique individual, emphasizing the rarity of someone like him. He also mentions his ambition to reach a billion dollars, which seems like a common theme in his recent discography. He includes various pop culture references, such as the Whatchamacallit candy bar and the Royce car model, which serve to illustrate his eccentricity and his limited set of interests.
The second verse takes a different turn, as Tyler becomes more introspective and vulnerable. He talks about a failed attempt to steal someone else's partner, admitting that he is a "bad person" who doesn't regret his actions. Tyler reveals that even though the woman chose the other man, he hopes she still thinks of him during sex. He then admits to feeling hurt by someone's words, showing a more emotional side to his personality. While flying on a private jet, Tyler questions his own actions and is unsure of his next moves. He ends the song by asking the DJ to turn the noise up, suggesting that he wants to distract himself from his thoughts and emotions.
