Lyrics:
[Hannah Williams]
Why do I find it so hard to love you?
When I know in my heart that I want to
I've been putting you down when you aren't around
I'm letting you down every day
I've been messing around when you're out of town
Why do I keep on running away?
I'm a part-time lover and I'm never there
I find it hard to believe you don't want it to end
I'll be changing my tune when you walk in the room
I'll be fixing the look on my face
I'm gonna get close to you, give my loving to you
At least until you're going away
I know that I'm not good
I'm never gonna treat you like I should
I've heard that all of the boys think you're crazy
When I treat you so bad, why do you want me?
I've heard that all of the girls are starting to hate me
For stealing your heart and treating you badly
[Hannah Williams and Kim Burrell]
It doesn't hurt anymore when you walk through the door
I forget every word that you said
And I can't put you down when no one else is around
And when you're gone, you're getting replaced
[JAY-Z]
Look, I apologize, often womanize
Took for my child to be born, see through a woman's eyes
Took for these natural twins to believe in miracles
Took me too long for this song, I don't deserve you
I harassed you out in Paris
"Please come back to Rome, you make it home"
We talked for hours when you were on tour
"Please pick up the phone, pick up the phone!"
I said: "Don't embarrass me" instead of "Be mine"
That was my proposal for us to go steady
That was your 21st birthday
You matured faster than me, I wasn't ready
So I apologize
I seen the innocence leave your eyes
I still mourn its death and
I apologize for all the stillborns
'Cause I wasn't present, your body wouldn't accept it
I apologize to all the women whom I toyed with your emotions
'Cause I was emotionless
And I apologize 'cause at your best, you are love
And because I fall short of what I say I'm all about
Your eyes leave with the soul that your body once housed
And you stare blankly into space
Thinkin' of all the time, you wasted it on all this basic shit
So I apologize
[Tyler, the Creator]
What's the point of bein' rich when you wake up alone?
What's the point of goin' home when it ain't nobody there?
Fuck that, I grab my bike and phone home in the air
And I pedal through the city with the wide frame steer
With that tall pale boy that I met last year
Grape, that's what I call him, love, that's what I fall in
Fell in, I ain't like sports growing up, but now I'm ballin'
I guess I'm a late bloomer
Ayo, look, high tide bottoms 'cause the neck on lunar
Them GOLF le FLEUR unos 'cause, we don't do Puma, nah
20k pairs, gone in 3 seconds
You ain't gotta like him and you ain't gotta respect him
For playin' chess with these ------
That think that they're bench pressin'
Leg day is getting skipped, guess who really runnin' shit?
Young Teezy, it ain't easy, feelin' wheezy in this bitch
New slaves got y'all ------- feelin' breezy on the ship
Pour a Fanta in your poison so its easier to sip, huh?
Haha!
[JAY-Z]
I apologize
Our love was one for the ages and I contained us
And all this ratchet shit and we more expansive
Not meant to cry and die alone in these mansions
Or sleep with our back turned
We supposed to vacay 'til our backs burn
We're supposed to laugh 'til our heart stops
And then meet in a space where the dark stop
And let love light the way
Like the men before me, I cut off my nose to spite my face
I never wanted another woman to know
Something about me that you didn't know
I promised, I cried, I couldn't hold
I suck at love, I think I need a do-over
I will be emotionally available if I invited you over
I stew over; "What if-"
"You over my shit?"
[Kim Burrell]
I'm never gonna treat you
I'm never gonna treat you like I should
Oh
[JAY-Z]
And if my children knew
I don't even know what I would do
If they ain't look at me the same
I would prob'ly die with all the shame
"You did what with who?"
What good is a ménage à trois when you have a soulmate?
"You risked that for Blue?"
If I wasn't a superhero in your face
My heart breaks for the day I have to explain my mistakes
And the mask goes away
And Santa Claus is fake
And you go online and see
For Blue's tooth, the tooth fairy didn't pay
[Kim Burrell]
I'm never gonna treat you like I should
[Tyler, the Creator]
My shit leaked two weeks before that release date
First week, did dos, a thousand off, beat Meek
Shout out Meek! Two -------- first week top 3!
And I can't even get a song to play on the radio
But tripled in them ratings, TV channels still pay me tho, haha
P told me not to trip
I am in my Ziploc, ------
Feel like I got the best album out (uh)
I know I got the best album out (preach)
[Kim Burrell]
You know that I'm not good, oh no
I'm never gonna treat you, never gonna treat you like I should
[Hannah Williams]
I'm a part-time lover
It should be a crime to have an ad in the middle of a music video.

That transition legit gives me chills. This is genuinely one of the best alt intros ive ever heard
i see this exact comment on every alt intro/change your life mixes
@@TheRat900 Because the popular ones are good.
See a doctor if u get chills that easy mf boutta die💀💀crazy ong
have a listen to hot wind blows by tyler. The alternate intro is insane!
Thats because late nights and heartbreaks is just a banger on its own
Jay z who regrets his use of fame due to the way he treated Beyoncé and still stayed immature even when it came to maturing in his older life and yearning for the return of his love perfectly contrasts Tyler’s verse where he embellishes in life while also yearning for the love that Jay z took for granted and also contrasting Jay z maturity with the experience and Tyler’s immaturity not ever having experienced Jay’s situation all in the same sample of “the part time lover” showing TWO SIDES OF THAT COIN, so good idk if my comment glitched so this might be my second time sending this

This song is a banger

The OG is honestly a really good song.
@@showerh what’s the og?
So Tyler sampled a sample
@@char5379they sampled the same song
@@showerh late nights and heartbreak by hannah williams & the affirmations
I love how Tyler mixed the beat a little differently to get the bass a bit punchier and with more compression to give more room for his lower voice. It adds this subtle dynamic in this mashup that makes the song so much more enjoyable.
no offence but isn’t the opposite literally true? The low end is much more crowded on this mix, and as such jay’s voice sounds even thinner than on the original mix. Not sure what you’re getting at.
if Tyler's voice is lower making the bass punchier would conflict with the lower voice... do you mean that he made room in the mix for his voice?
Genius. The original song always gives me chills but this gave me hypothermia. My daughter was born at 4:44 am.
Whats the original song called bro?
@@ChilakilesConPollo Late Lights & Heartbreak, 4:44, and Ziploc
This is sweet mam
I fkn love that. She's a little a warrior queen.
Your comment has 444 likess😮😮😮
I need to see how this transition would hit at a live show. The drums kick in harder the lights hit, the graphics switch. It would be epic but probably never happening 😢
Imagine, the sample just playing out, and it kinda just seems like they’re just teasing and not gonna play the song, Jay is just walking around stage setting up, then the beat drop happens
Meh the intro would be boring af at a concert
@@JackofCubes It would have to be shortened, but I think Ye did something similar with Father Stretch My Hands 1
@@sagarkathuria8194 that was soul not r&b.
@@JackofCubesno it wouldn’t 😭 you would be exited don’t lie
I have never heard a better seamless transition from the original to the sample in my life. It does justice to both songs and gives you an even greater appreciation for them. This is next-level exceptional.
WHATS THE POINT OF BEING RICH WHEN YOU WAKE UP ALONE WHATS THE POINT GOING HOME WHEN YOU IT AINT NOBODY THERE
I remember Tyler dropping this, it got to me on a whole other level
Jayz ***
@@milford2781 Nah, the Tyler cover.
@@milford2781 yeah jay did it first but Tyler hopped on the beat and did it justice
where did he drop it?
@@hudson1232 He is talking about Tyler dropping his cover. No need to dick ride Jay so hard. He don't know you.
When the Wendy's cashier ask what I'm ordering:
I think the 4: 44 beat might be my favourite beat of all time, that sample is otherworldly. I heard Ziploc from Tyler and adored the beat, then when I finally went looking for the sample I realized the beat was a song from Jay Z. So I ended up finding two incredible songs, an amazing beat and original sample, and this beautiful mashup in the process
I recomend you to listen to hollow Bones by wu tang
real ones know jayz the blueprint
real ones dont shame newer fans@@coolname5840
that ad in the middle of tyler’s verse is foul behaviour 🤢
Istg
Real
transition from the original into the sample and Jay-Z into Tyler the creator is absolutely insane
man this here hits so hard tylers lyrics are undervalued
There was probably 3 times you'd think the beat would switch to the song and it doesn't, suspense.
Man, I've had this on repeat like I've don't listen never heard the song first the first time. The beat transition is phenomenal.
Same. This shit hits hard...
Am I having a stroke?
@@ohtofriman3945 💀💀😂 I gave up on reading it at first
what
"I have do not listen never heard the song first the first time" wtf? English much?
I have a stank face for the rest of eternity that transition gave me chills
im sitting at my desk writing a 20 page stats paper with the air turned on cold with this on repeat. and I am at complete peace Edit: Now it's 11pm on 4/17/2023, I'm now writing a 15 page paper for a business class. Still at peace vibing while I'm writing.

The original sample is "Late Nights & Heartbreak" by Hannah William/The Affirmations, for anyone wondering
Yeah, and in my opinion Jay's song would have been nothing without it.
@@mistateearuba he has great bars but the sample is just incredible as it's own thing
@@odencore Absolutely.
These two have single handedly massacred what is simply an incredible original track. I'm all for good sampling but this really doesn't do either party any justice
@@michaeltownsend7037 lame ass opinion. What has been "massacred"? Its actually bringing many people who would have never heard the original song to it. Making it hold up through the ages
I keep coming back to this edit, so beautiful.
Never expected you being here
what are you doin here bro. anyway whats up
real
That transition was angelic.
This is the logical path that some portion of hip hop needs to take as much of the audience and artists age - 9 minute tracks. Stoner Metal length songs and albums of 6-8 tracks. Tight, sexy, moving pieces of work that vibe and make me go “oh daaaaaamn” Or at least a project approach some artists could take.
I mean it's just the OG sample added to the intro. But yeah in the 70s a lot of RnB and disco had extended versions so it's not a bad idea.
love that idea, but w streaming giving everyone an incentive for shorter songs it seems unlikely :/
Wouldn't be feasible because of copyright and sample laws, and with some songs being a mix of like 3-4 samples it would be harder. But that is also what KZhead and music nerds like us are for LOL
@@supermegajoseph that’s where creativity and a genuine love for creating art comes in i think
Bro dopesmoker by sleep is amazing because of how long it is, a rap version of something like that would be insane, solace by earl sweatshirt is the best example I can think of
WTF BRO WHEN THE BEAT SWITCH IT GAVE ME CHILLZ 🥶🥶🥶🥶
