Blood Orange – Orlando lyrics
[Verse 1: Devonté Hynes]
Dreaming Orlando, get it?
Give it time
Walked these steps before
Sixteen-year-old boy
Confused and knowing that he’s different he wants to give in
After school, sucker punched down
Down and out

[Refrain]
First kiss was the floor
First kiss was the floor

[Verse 2: Devonté Hynes]
Thinking it won't make a difference if you don't get up
Timing is all
I don't know (tell us more
What do you think?
I’m changing anyway
All that I know was taught to me young, lesson one, when I cried in front of you all
Seen it all before

[Refrain: Devonté Hynes]
First kiss the floor
First kiss the floor
First kiss the floor
Shoot, baby, shoot

[Outro: Janet Mock & Devonté Hynes]
Life on the floor
You know, it's an insult we often put onto
Beneath the world
A lot of filth is, like, oh, you're doing too much
So like, a couple years ago I was like
You know what, my resolution, my eternal resolution will be to
Sand in your pearls
To do too much
Yes, I love it
