What the Hell?
[Verse 1: Hodgy]
I ain't been home in a week
Barely been to Pasadena since them San Fran streets
I stay the night at the studio, I get no sleep
My passion for this music yo, it's far too deep
I rest for 3 hours a day, 4 and an half if I'm lucky
4:45 in the mornin' and I'm the only one up, see
I'm all about the hustle, Hodgy 'bout his grind
And you'll no longer struggle once you make up your mind
I had made up my mind and now I'm takin' the time
Steady niggas takin' from mines, I record in outer space
Bendin' time, lendin' rhymes, not a hand
Mixtapes to a fan, giving and gettin' grams
Odd Future shinin', S.P.F. sunscreen
Needs to be applied to burn from sunbeams
Teach a lesson if haven't learned from one's schemes
Mankind wouldn't be realistic if no one dreamed, yeah
[Chorus: Frank Ocean, Hodgy & Frank Ocean]
I got, I got anime on the screen
I got, I got pen in hand, scripting dreams
I got, I got — rich man said to me
"Just remember one thing: you'll never have time," time
You'll never have time, time
You'll never have time, time
You'll never have time, time
[Verse 2: Hodgy]
I knew it, mama, I knew it
One wish every birthday candle before I blew it
Son carved the paths out but I drew it, sicker than the flu
I'm on my stew shit, just let it simmer and brew
When I'm remembering you
We fall out in the winter
September, October, Novembering you
No contender with you, I'm like tendering food
Zip-Lock marinated, cook it if you care to take it
The time now to bake it, mama, show me how you make it
Bring me to life with an icing covered knife
Single handedly raised us, sacrifice and had to fight
For pay just to raise us, love is what made us today
Trust, we always got steel
I'll proceed to protect if I'm goin', shot, kill
I'm the star, twinkle, twinkle
Thanks for every birthday, you lit candles for cake, sprinkles, uh
[Chorus: Frank Ocean, Hodgy & Frank Ocean]
I got, I got anime on the screen
I got, I got pen in hand, scripting dreams
I got, I got — rich man said to me
"Just remember one thing: you'll never have time," time
You'll never have time, time
You'll never have time, time
You'll never have time, time
[Interlude: Left Brain]
Yo, yo, what the fuck is an interlude, anyway?
What the fuck is an interlude for, man?
What the hell do you need a fuckin' interlude for, man?
Fuck that, just play the next song
What the Hell?
