all the shine

Singer:childish gambino

what the fuck do y'all niggas really want?

i went with realness instead

but all the real niggas i know either crazy or dead

yeah

i dropped the free ep for these other kids to feel a lot

niggas keep asking on whether this dude's for real or not

i'm not trying to come hard

i'm trying to come me

that's why these older songs that i used to make i'd release free

what's the point of rap if you can't be yourself

huh?

that's why i come first like my cell phone

i'm a role model

i am not these other guys

i rap about my dick and talk about what girls is fly

i know it's dumb

that's the fucking reason i'm doing it

so why does everyone have a problem with talking stupid shit?

or is it real shit?

'cause sometimes that stupid shit is real shit

like when you make out with your best friend's baby sis

you know the one with short hair you used to babysit?

see

that's not even right

you with a different girl like each and every fucking night

and kiss her while she's sleeping and sneak out the front to catch a flight

that's not life

dude

it's just making up for fucks i missed in high school

i keep it wrapped until i meet the right one

'cause i ain't mumford

i ain't tryin' to have sons

all i wanted was some more like ashton

i ain't the coolest but i know i got passion

i got passion!

i really wanna do right and it doesn't matter

we've got all the shine we need to find

i really wanna do right and it doesn't matter

we've got all the shine we need to find

baby
