Robin Thicke Day One Friend

Robin Thicke Day One Friend

It’s been roughly a year since the release of Robin Thicke’s most recent offering On Earth, and in Heaven. He released a few singles between then and now, including a festive feature titled “Perfect Holiday.” The positive energy continues its prevalence, with “Day One Friend” being a jubilant reference to those who have been a part of your world from the jump, and those that stuck around in the midst of life’s mayhem. Rapsody comes through to deliver her outlook as well, making for a well rounded offering from the seasoned R&B artist.

Rapsody handles the intro of the song, which was a fantastic idea, due to her engaging presence and vivacity. Regardless of the topic at hand, Rapsody is one of the most impressive lyricists on the planet right now. Full stop. Her understanding of pace and use of homonyms served her well here, as the word “day” was incorporated consistently and creatively. The verse fit thematically, and really opened up the song for Robin Thicke to do what he does best.

Following Rapsody’s verse, Robin Thicke enters with a smooth and soulful serenade. While the track is obviously directed towards non-romamtic interactions, the love is still abundant both sonically and lyrically. The track doesn’t overdo anything, and there’s almost no rigidity to be found. When you’ve been singing and performing for as long as Robin has, you typically gain insight into what works, and when to do it. While the rest of the song doesn’t have the tenacity Rapsody provided, it’s a springtime easy-listen, perfect for the weather which will surely break soon.

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Rapsody]
I got a day one like day-day
That pull up on a Friday
Like get yo’ ass up, we ’bout to party
Another one that’s always praying for me ’cause she Godly
And a few that throw hands in my name if you try me
Dara know my dirt and she keep it under rug
Kash tell it like it is
Pat used to give me cash when I ain’t have a cent
Netta taught me how to pop the wop
Nique held me down when my temp hot, hella hot
Marcus always lied when I used to skip school
Almost got arrested, we was actin’ a fool
Few day ones, I don’t even talk to
If you don’t know my mama, then you just a debut
Newcomer trying to act like you really paid dues
You ain’t seen me at my worst
Ain’t dropped everything when I called
Had genuine love since the first day one

[Verse 2: Robin Thicke]
Ohh, I’ve been there, I’ve been there, I’ve been broken like you
Changed my hair what I wear and my whole attitude
When you’re strong but you’re scared, you’ve got so much to prove
It takes time

[Chorus: Robin Thicke]
My day one friend
If you wanna party
All you do is call me
I will be there
My day one friend
When you’re feeling lonely
You don’t have to worry
I have been there

[Verse 3: Robin Thicke]
Celebrate, celebrate, caviar and your smile
Pour the wine, more champagne, tell non-sinner we tried
Good cigars, single malt, we’ve no secrets to hide
From each other, from each other
Oh yeah

[Verse 4: Robin Thicke]
Took a drive up the coast
Dipped my toes in the bay
Turned it off, all the things still to do
And to say
Pour some out, a salud
If you never knew pain, then what’s pleasure?

[Chorus: Robin Thicke]
My day one friend
If you wanna party
All you do is call me
I will be there
My day one friend
When you’re feeling lonely
You don’t have to worry
I have been there

[Bridge: Robin Thicke]
Don’t I know
Don’t I know
Don’t I know
Don’t I know
My sister, oh yeah
Don’t I know
Don’t I know
Don’t I know
Don’t I know
My brother, my day one friend
I love you my friend

[Chorus: Robin Thicke]
My day one friend
If you wanna party
All you do is call me
I will be there
My day one friend
When you’re feeling lonely
You don’t have to worry
I have been there
