Rose Tinted Cheeks (Rough Draft) Lyrics by Tyler, The Creator
[Intro]
Hello, no one is available to take your call
Please leave a message after the tone
Beep
[Verse 1]
I never had the courage to tell you I adore you
I did it in a song, I was too afraid to call you
I know, I know, I’m sorry, I know I’m annoying
I just want your attention
Ever since I saw you, knew nothing was important
Your gravity is too strong and it’s f—–g up my orbit
Contact avoided by the time I record this
I just want you to listen
[Pre-Hook/Chorus]
Everytime I see you, yeah, you brighten up my day
You’re the cashmere to my cotton and I wished you felt the same
More options in the alphabet, I know I’ll be okay-kay-kay
No, I won’t…
[Hook/Chorus]
‘Cause it’s them rose tinted cheeks “cheeks, cheeks”
It’s them rose tinted cheeks “cheeks, cheeks, cheeks, cheeks”
And it’s them rose tinted cheeks “cheeks, cheeks, cheeks, cheeks”
It’s them rose tinted cheeks “cheeks, cheeks, cheeks, cheeks”
[Verse 2]
They black flag we AF
We BF as AF
But they won’t get that
That’s that 20 Century Women reference
You so hard to get like intricate metaphors
Companies? I own four
But all I want is yours
Hit the ‘plex and catch a band or sushi spot I recommend
Float around hitting wheelies, leg or engine-based, it all depends
Either one is cool to me
And you’re way too cool for me
I’ma freeze to death tryna keep up
Thirsty I am, I may need three cups, what’s up?
[Pre-Hook/Chorus]
Everytime I see you, yeah, you brighten up my day
You’re the cashmere to my cotton and I wished you felt the same
More options in the alphabet, I know I’ll be okay-kay-kay
[Hook/Chorus]
It’s them rose tinted cheeks “cheeks, cheeks, cheeks, cheeks”
It’s them rose tinted cheeks “cheeks, cheeks, cheeks, cheeks”
And it’s them rose tinted cheeks “cheeks, cheeks, cheeks, cheeks”
It’s them rose tinted cheeks “cheeks, cheeks, cheeks, cheeks”
[Verse 3]
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
Eye contact, eye contact, eye contact, yeah
Speeding down the 5 in my newest ride
You was kinda high, speakers mild high
Track 10 track 10, dirt bike afternoons
As long as pale skin is near, I didn’t have to leave the room
Switch gears
Roamed around around fell in love “fell in love”
Broke my leg and got stuck, what the f–k?
Hit my head, wait, I wish you would fall in too, I said
I wish you would fall in and snap them legs
Cause I’ma be stuck here until I’m dead and gone
[Bridge]
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
Yeah
La-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la
[Outro]
I remember when we first met
My eyes, like jeans too tight, I couldn’t take ’em off you
You’re precious metal I was a magnet just looking
I’ve been searching for something
But didn’t know what I was looking for
Then you popped and it became so clear
Like that water up north, so clear
Got me saying
Alright, alright
And truthfully now
I’m intimidated by your existence
Flustered because of your presence
Your absence leaves me, leaves me in a state of confusion… I mean…
I really can’t function
I can’t explain it
I’m aware enough to know this is just a temporary pool of emotion
But since I’m here, I might as well drown
Please don’t save me
