Lyrics

I'm here to see my younger brother

Expressing arrival to visit the younger brother

I'm his older brother, Gator

Introduction as the older brother named Gator

Hey

Greeting

Hi, Angela

Greeting someone named Angela

Nice to meet you

Polite acknowledgment of meeting

Come on in

Invitation to enter

Thanks

Gratitude for the invitation

How ya doin'?

Casual inquiry about well-being

Good

Response indicating feeling good

Good, Alright

Confirmation of feeling good

Flipper

Reference to someone called Flipper

It's your brother

Informing about the arrival of the brother

My brother? Hey

Recognition of the brother's arrival

She likes them black men standing over 6 feet tall

Describing a preference of Angela for tall black men

See this weird tattoo when she takes off her bra

Noting a peculiar tattoo seen when Angela undresses

And she lives ten minutes west of LA, in East Hollywood

Angela's residence location near LA in East Hollywood

She's friends with young rich bitches and some old white people

Her social circle comprises young rich individuals and older white people, despite her not liking them

And the irony is that she don't like them either

Observation on Angela's tolerance for her social circle due to good pay

But she goes ahead and puts up with them, plus the pay is good

Details about Angela's appearance and confidence

She got the peach lipstick, and Chanel scent

The effect Angela's demeanor has on the speaker emotionally

And the way she walks with confidence

Experience of going to Angela's place with a captivating smile

It all just makes me feel some type of way

Questioning the authenticity of the experience

She took me back to her pavilion

Repetition emphasizing the image of a white girl singing in the shower in the afternoon

With a smile that's worth a million

-

Wonder if it's real, is this life today?

-

You got some white girl singing in the shower

-

In the afternoon

-

You got some white girl singing in the shower

-

In the afternoon

-

You got some white girl singing in the shower

-

In the afternoon

-

You got some white girl singing in the shower

-

In the afternoon

-

Party in the hills with pure white lines

Reference to a party involving drugs

With Solange playing under the dim, dim lights

Description of the atmosphere with dim lights and music by Solange

Too high in the moment, don't know how I ended up in the kitchen

Being disoriented and ending up in the kitchen while being high

Now I don't know if I'm fit for the mild high life

Questioning suitability for a relaxed lifestyle due to constant fear of death

And it don't help that I constantly fear of dying

Willingness to take risks for someone like Angela despite fears

But for someone like her, I honestly just might risk it

Reflections on Angela's impact and authenticity in the speaker's life

She got the peach lipstick, and Chanel scent

-

And the way she walks with confidence

-

It all just makes me feel some type of way

-

She took me back to her pavilion

-

With a smile that's worth a million

-

Wonder if it's real, is this life today?

-

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Expressing conflicted feelings about living in Malibu versus Inglewood

Living the dream in Malibu (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

-

Gazing over the ocean blue (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

-

Even with this, I still think of you (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

-

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (Love)

-

I'd rather be Inglewood (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

-

City of Angels don't feel right to me (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

-

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

-

Uh, are you feeling me now with this?

Personal growth, recognition of support, and success

I done got everybody invested

-

Bitches lining up just to see me

-

Cannot get overwhelmed, I'm protected

-

You was the only one there, you defected

-

Never knocking the hustle, I no longer struggle

-

I'm calling it double directed

Asserting individuality and identity as a young entertainer

Got here with my brothers, supporting my mother

-

My family finally resting

-

And I'm still can't legally drink, a young entertainer with standards

-

Bitch with a flannel, she really Ned Flanders

-

Putting that Dharma Wheel right on the banner

-

Fucking on beat, recognize what I'ma be

-

That's P-O-E C-E-T-E

-

You niggas stay running from the individual

Encouragement to embrace individuality and not forget one's origins

Never forget who you'll forever see

-

You got some white girl singing in the shower (She look good!)

Reiteration of the image of a white girl singing in the shower, varied by location and surroundings

In the afternoon

-

You got some white girl singing in the shower

-

In the afternoon, ooh, ooh

-

White girl singing in the shower

-

Oh, just spread your wings

-

White girl singing in the shower

-

In the afternoon

-

You got the white girl singing in the shower

-

You got the white girl swaying with the palm trees

-

You got some white girl singing in the shower

-

All over the ocean

-

In the afternoon

Expanding the imagery to a broader context, singing all over the ocean in the afternoon
