Frank Ocean sings about losing someone and wishing he could go back and change things. He references the sky being pink and white, the ground being black and yellow, and experiencing the same way his partner showed him love. He realizes what he lost was significant and wishes he could climb trees and relive memories like he used to, or try one more time to make things right. The song depicts dealing with loss through weather and nature themes like hurricanes and the sun.

1. Frank Ocean – Pink and White
Yeah, yeah oh
Yeah, yeah yeah
That’s the way everyday goes - Suggesting repetitiveness/A routine
Every time we have no control
If the sky is pink and white
If the ground is black and yellow
It’s the same way you showed me – Lost/Missing someone
Nod my head, don’t close my eyes
Half way on a slow move
It’s the same way you showed me
If you could fly then you’d feel south
Up north’s getting cold soon
The way it is, we’re on land
So I’m someone to hold true – Wanting him or her to come back
Keep you cold in this good life
Won’t led you down when it’s all ruined – Something bad happened, didn’t
deal with it well
Just the same way you showed me, showed me
You showed me love – Becoming a better person
Glory from above – Learning from mistakes/ Following in others footsteps
Good Glory, dear
It’s all downhill from here
In the wake of a hurricane – Learning to deal with what he lost
Dark skin of a summer shade
Nose dive in the flood lines
Tall tower, milk crate
It’s the same way you showed me
Cannon ball off the porch side - Wishing he could relive memories
Older kids trying off the roof – Have another chance
Just the same way you showed me (showed me)
If you could die and come back to life – Wanting to start from scratch
Up for air from the swimming pool
You kneel down to the dry land
Kiss the Earth that birthed you
Gave you tools just to say alive
And make it up when the sun is ruined
That’s the same way you showed ne, showed me
You showed me love
Glory from above
Where God could fear
It’s all downhill from here – Realisation of what he lost and its significance

2. What a life
Remember how it was
Climb trees, Michael Jackson
Say what up to Magic, just shoot
Say what up to Penny
Say what up to life one more time - Persuasion to try one more time
And I know what you might want to know – Not giving up
Run from me and your team
Still ain’t grabbing six (take it easy)
Give me something to bite - Compromise
Bitch, I might bite, ain’t no tellin
This is life, life immortality – Living forever, never wanting the moment to
end
 “God up above” – A superior force/ being
 Weather theme – “Hurricane, cold, summer, floods” – Representation of
emotions. Possible theme to run throughout our music video
 Natural theme – “Earth, land, sea, the sun” – Will help place emphasis on
the colours e.g. Pink and White
These 2 themes will be commonly seen throughout our music video due to the
focus and links we can easily make from the music video.
