[Chorus]
Why go to the party? Why go to the party?
Why go to the party at all?
Two shots and a body, two shots and a body
Two shots and a body involved

[Verse 1]
Where are those subtle men?
With the decency to might be wrong
Where are those winter girls?
Who corrected, say women
I'm sorry, forgiven
Why would we ever change?
Planets never see a day that isn't towards the Sun
Bliss is a cheap emotion, everyone here seems to afford
So I don't know why I'm here without you, you

[Chorus]
Why go to the party? Why go to the party?
Why go to the party at all?
When you're not invited, you take what you're given
Some wait every day for the call

[Verse 2]
Grief is a standing ocean, I never swam unless you did
So I don't know why I'm here without you
I miss you

[Chorus]
Why go to the party? Why go to the party?
Why go to the party at all? (You)
I call to a spirit, you may never hear it
How else could I keep you alive? Alive

[Outro]
'Cause it's hard for me to love myself without you here
'Cause the days are slow, but the years are fast
I wonder when I'll feel your smile

Childish Gambino

You can call him Donald Glover, Childish Gambino, or just simply talented. Mr. Glover wears many hats when it comes to entertaining; in the last five years alone, he has been highly successful in the paths of acting, rapping, writing, and performing stand-up.

‘Bino has displayed great versatility over his rap career, from the boasting yet muted Culdesac, to the open and vulnerable yet sweet sounds of Camp, and finally to the brash/broken/sullen tour de force that was Because the Internet. He also has released electronic instrumental work under the moniker Mc DJ.

Donald broke a six-year streak of releasing projects in 2015. Instead, he made up for it by directing the FX series Atlanta—where he is also the creator and the lead actor. This role led him to win the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Television Series Musical or Comedy. In November 2016, Gambino announced his next LP, “Awaken, My Love!”, which released on December 2nd. His latest effort landed him 5 Grammy nominations in 2018, including Album of the Year and Record of the Year. With two Emmy awards and one Grammy under his belt, he is well on his way to EGOT status.
