Music & Lyrics: Vol 5

I was introduced to my first Frank Ocean track, Blasted from the Lonny Breaux Pt. 1 mixtape by my 'bigger' bro (as usual) a couple of years ago after which it was on replay for quite a number of days at a stretch on my playlist.

Plus it got me loving up on the in depth meanings of the lyrics on a few of his other singles. Always viewed him as somewhat of a poet since then.

Blasted still happens to be my best Frank hit. Like the saying goes, 'You never really forget your first love.'

 [Verse 1]

She's the prettiest girl I've ever seen on a skateboard

And I'm just a guy with a couple of open ears for her
She told me every story behind all of her tattoos
She's thinking maybe the next one, 
Should have something to do with you, 
To do with me

[Verse 2]
She said you should get a rubix cube over your heart
But you say I've already figured it out
Already figured out the love
She want me to get a spaceship tatted inside of my lip  
Cause that's what she feel like she on when we
On each other
Loving on each other 
Kissing on each other

[Pre-Hook]
Okay well you gotta do mine in color
Cause all of your exes are in black and white

[Bridge]
Paper to pen, Needle to skin
I'm in the chair, and she's over there
Taking these pictures and blowing me kisses
When I ask her to hold my hand, 
She told me to take that ink like man
Told me take that ink like a man
She told me that

[Hook]
You wanna get blasted, yeah
Cause you know this love is gonna last
And now we getting blasted
Cause I couldn't let you do it by yourself 
My feelings go deeper than the ink, 
It goes deeper, deep in to your soul

You know it...
