I wanna see him doing a live version of this with him actually telling the story of him coming home from camp on the bus. It's my favourite part of the song!
The original ending of this song just literally gave me the most musical inspiration I've ever had.. " I told you something. It was just for you and you told everybody. So I learned cut out the middle man, make it all for everybody, always. Everybody can’t turn around and tell everybody, everybody already knows, I told them"
I like how he's still humble. A lot of rappers you don't know what they're talking about and can't relate. He talks about the perils of creating your own unique dentity versus predisposed notions of societal norms for black people and struggling to survive in a poor household. In my opinion a great rapper. When I saw him on Community I had no idea he was a talented rapper too.
'Uh, yeah I'm killin' you, step inside the lion's den Man I'm Hov if the 'O' was an 'I' instead' I've always been so distracted by the chills the story about the bus home from camp gives that I never noticed the genious of this line til now!
this is one of my favorite songs by him. i love donald glover so much. he has so muc meaning in each of his songs. he’s my favorite rapper and I’m so thankful for a rapper/singer/director/actor/comedian like him 💓
eminem won an oscar... and he doesn't say that, he saying that white guys are saying he's too white, when he wasn't white enought to swim at the pool when he was eight, he's not saying white rappers are bad, eminem is one of his favorite rappers, the reason he got into rapping.
his lives are my favorite because I have a great stereo system... too bad I live in Park City, and won't be able to see his lives in person, that would be DOPENESS
@KrakenStudios You're not missing anything. There aren't any dates announced yet. :) Follow @DonaldGlover on twitter and you'll find out as soon as I do.
@nike17soccer he compares himself to an oreo as well. Black on the outside, white inside. Also "oreos, twinkies, coconuts" culd be compared to black girls, asian girls, and hispanic girls who are white on the inside. Not being racist...just saying what i read on rapgenius.

I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE
+CriticalGamer it's the best part of the song. "I didn't even know you were friends with them." 😕
+Taron Webb :( stupidest girl ever..
+no DESTINY :(
I realise these comments are from a year ago, but the outro was actually written by one of his Derrick Co-stars D.C. Pierson

Alan Bushell listen to that song just about everyday!
sure it’s sad but it’s a sadness i chose
I love the transition between angelic face when he's singing, and fucking psychopath look when he raps.
It's pretty dope.
Ludwig went from jammin small shows with Gambino to scoring The Black Panther score. I love that they're both succeeding
And winning a fucking Oscar.
@@TheRealConcertKing its wild right? But also like 100% deserved.
"I said I want a full house they said you got it dude ." Genius
"I consider you guys my family, cuz, only my family spends money on me..." Childish Gambino.

was anybody else on here hoping for the outro story to be included?
we still here in 2023
One thing you can never diss Childish Gambino for is passion
"This is Blake Griffin, and this is Royalty."
comedian, rapper, artist, lyrical genius, director, writer, singer, realist i think
Gotta love that wild look he gets in his eyes when he’s performing
he was like "hey thats blake griffin." and i was like "Ohh SHIT thats blake griffin"
I love how everyone is into it, everyone looks like they're feeling the music because of the music and not the pay
Man after getting into Gambino I almost can't even remember him from Community. I'll take a new bino album over more Community any day.
he's forever donglover in my heart
+Musty Shackleford I was promised BUTT STUFF
Tim Carter 2nd December 😂
Taylor Awaken, My love
'Uh, yeah I'm killin' you, step inside the lion's den
Man I'm Hov if the 'O' was an 'I' instead'

He goes SO hard. Favorite song on the Album
this is one of my favorite songs by him. i love donald glover so much. he has so muc meaning in each of his songs. he’s my favorite rapper and I’m so thankful for a rapper/singer/director/actor/comedian like him 💓

"Mm..FOOD like Rap snitch Knishes" I wish he would have gotten to collab with DOOM
This dudes talent is amazing! There's nothing he can't do...
A legend in the making....
eminem won an oscar... and he doesn't say that, he saying that white guys are saying he's too white, when he wasn't white enought to swim at the pool when he was eight, he's not saying white rappers are bad, eminem is one of his favorite rappers, the reason he got into rapping.
i love the quires reaction when he starts rapping

That Outro
THIS IS WRINKLING MY BRAIN
The Francois Truffaut line in this is probably the greatest line I've heard in any song ever. Props to Donald for having knowledge of classic cinema.

his lives are my favorite because I have a great stereo system... too bad I live in Park City, and won't be able to see his lives in person, that would be DOPENESS
Wouldn't that be crazy if when the end started and it's just the instrumental and he just started telling the story?
He can sing!
"Yea, that's Blake Griffin."
