Childish Gambino, Erik Fair - The Brown Recluse lyrics

[Childish Gambino, Erik Fair - The Brown Recluse lyrics]

At this point, the Boy’s perception of time
Slows down immensely

D2: who did you call?!

The Boy looks at Dude 2, not at him though he
Can see inside of him he sees his soul
All of his fear and confusion swirling
Around violently inside of him

TB: (nonchalantly) you’ve had my phone

D2: It must be other dealers
Who did you piss off!

The Boy stops looking through Dude
2 and feels something
He can’t describe we call
This feeling "urgency"

TB: What did you call me?

D2: What are you talking about, man?

The Boy’s heart starts beating rapidly

TB: You just said it again

D2: I just called you "man"

TB: I’m not

D2: I mean…sure you are, how old are you?
TB: 30

D2: Alright, what’s your name in case we
Don’t make it out alive?

TB: (no-face emoji)

D2: I’m Brian! What’s your fucking name?!

TB: I’m not man… I don’t have a name

Brian starts looking through The Boy
He starts seeing something he can’t believe

Brian: I can see you… you’re sitting on a bus

The Boy (sitting on a couch with his
Legs crossed) feels his heart
Rate slow and closes his eyes
When he opens them, he is back on the bus

TB: Destiny

Brian: Huh

TB: Getting off of this bus is my destiny

He suddenly stands up, starts
Walking towards the door
Feeling less childish with each step

The Boy gets to the door
Slowly turns the handle
And opens it but before he walks out
He stops and turns to see a petrified Brian
TB: Can I have my phone back?

Brian: Y you su-su-sure man

TB: (snatches the phone like a man) It’s Donald

Donald walks out and feels himself getting
Off of the bus two
Guys get into a truck and speed off one of
Them shouts something at Dude 1’s
Dead body about fucking the
Wrong nigga’s bitch they don’t notice
Donald standing outside texting

Donald to Naomi: meet me at the mansion
I’ll make ossobuco and we can talk

Naomi to Donald: Making dinner for me huh?
Tryna be my man or something?

Donald to Naomi: Maybe

Donald notices he left his coat inside but
Sees a red hoodie in the
Street he throws it on and starts
Skipping jubilantly to the mansion

Freaks and Geeks starts playing
Credit's roll
