Rose Tinted Cheeks Lyrics - 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 annoyin' 

I just want your attention 

Ever since I saw you, knew nothin' was important 

Your gravity is too strong and it's fuckin' up my orbit 

Contact avoided by the time I record this 

I just want you to listen

Songs That Will Make You Cry Uncontrollably 

Love Stinks, So Here Are 15 Anti-Valentine's Day Songs 

Watch Will Smith perform to iconic song 'Prince Ali' from Aladdin 

[Pre-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... 

[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) 

Photos 

[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 (ooh) 

Sushi spot I recommend (ooh) 

Float around hittin' 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-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 

[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, uh 

[Verse 3] 

La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la 

Eye contact, eye contact, eye contact, yeah 

Speedin' 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 fuck? 

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, uh 

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 lookin' 

I've been searching for somethin' 

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 sayin' 

Alright, alright 

And truthfully now 

I'm intimidated by your existence 

Flustered because of your presence and 

Your absence leaves me, leaves me in a state of confusion... I mean... 

I really can't function (ahhh) 

La-la-la-la (uh-huh) 

I can't explain it (uh-huh) 

I'm aware enough to know this is just a temporary pool of emotion (uh-huh, alright) 

But since I'm here, I might as well drown, so 

Please don't save me (uh-huh)
