Wow a lot of people don’t even know the meaning of this song. This is a very deep, sad song about losing a close relative/friend that he grew up with and reflecting on the childhood memories
I just think because of how the song starts out everyone gets lost in it and don't really pay attention to the end. I guess it's up for people's own interpretation.
I first listened to this song when snowboarding about 2 years ago. It was majestic… the crisp piano notes coming in while gliding down the mountain looking at all the snow covered trees in the distance and the vocals brought it all together. It was absolutely perfect
Their relationship is amazing. She’s a lgbt alley and so supportive of Frank, writing songs with him, featuring him on her songs etc. So amazing seeing two talented artists supporting each other !
I was driving on the LA Freeway around evening time when the sun was setting and this song was playing then I looked to the sky and it was pink and white. I got literal chills, chills.
If you ever wrote a book, I'm reading it; I love your comment, I have no words to describe its essence but it's deep the way you wrote, the song makes me feel the same, I absolutely agree
2:00 everytime when frank singing "glory from above... regard me dear" and beyonce's back vocal kicks in, I get emotions that cannot be explained in words spring up.
@@indrajeetchouhan4655 Its implied on Genius, where they analyze the meaning of the lyrics, and how "its all downhill from here" can be good or bad or both. Its really up to the listener on how they interpret it. From Genius: Frank’s reached a high, but this is the pinnacle of their relationship-the pair can only go downhill. However, “downhill” could mean that their relationship will be easy from here. “Uphill” is going to be difficult/hard, and that the hard part is over and it’s all smooth sailing from here on.
This would be the perfect song to play when you've achieved all your life goals and the credits start rolling as you're looking up at the sky while enjoying a nice picnic.
When me and my bf were lost our homes in LA we'd drive around all day staring at the pink and white sky and the black and yellow pavement. This song helped me enjoy what i had.
That's the way everyday goes Every time we've no control If the sky is pink and white If the ground is black and yellow It's the same way you showed me Nod my head, don't close my eyes Halfway 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 Keep you cool when it's still alive Won't let you down when it's all ruin Just the same way you showed me, showed me You showed me love Glory from above Regard my dear It's all downhill from here In the wake of a hurricane Dark skin of a summer shade Nosedive in the flood lines Tall tower of milk crates It's the same way you showed me Cannonball off the porch side Older kids trying off the roof Just the same way you showed me (You showed) If you could die and come back to life Up for air from the swimming pool You'd kneel down to the dry land Kiss the Earth that birthed you Gave you tools just to stay alive And make it out when the sun is ruined That's the same way you showed me, showed me You showed me love Glory from above Regard my dear It's all downhill from here Remember life Remember how it was Climb trees, Michael Jackson, it all ends here Say what up to Matthew, to Shoob Say what up to Danny Say what up to life immortality Bending up my Nikes Running out the melpomene, nicotine Stealing granny cigs (Take it easy) Gimme something sweet Bitch, I might like immortality This is life, life immortality
This song makes me think of my late partner. Died unexpectedly after a brief telephone conversation he died five minutes after we verbally chatted and fortunately I texted him and said I love you. I saw that he read the message. So thankful to have had such a great relationship
Picture this: it's a beautiful, warm summer night. You're sitting in the garden or on a beach with the sun setting perfectly and this song playing loudly, joined by a few of your favourite people...
I bonded with my best friend over this song. Gave her flowers and asked her on a date in November 2020. Now we're having a child in just under 5 months. This song will forever make me cry thinking about how far we've come. 😭❤️
This song makes me feel like that day is beautiful today, makes me want to take a walk in NYC, makes me want to look at the sky and appreciate how beautiful it is
Summerbreeze, clear blue skies, Ocean twinkling like diamonds, a good glass of champagne and then the voice of Beyoncé like an angle from above. Top notch❤
I hate that I’m late to this party! Im loving this song! It make me miss my childhood..especially my grandma. She taught me love. Glory from above!!! Sending love and light to everyone loving this song and missing someone.
This song feels like waking up in the morning, sunlight streaming in through the curtains and a fresh new day about to begin. One of Frank's best for sure!
playing this on a sunny saturday walking through your local mall is just so refreshing to me, and the nature sounds in the background just makes it all more beautiful jesus
this song is the last one I listened with my doggie before he died next day, we were on the roof watching the sunset. now this song is very special for me cuz is so accurate abt how I feel
now I picture your dog jumping on clouds, listening to this song in heaven cuz it reminds him of you, and I love this song even more... RIP to your friend, it's nice you had a beautiful moment before he passed ❤️
Yeah, yeah oh Yeah, yeah yeah That's the way everyday goes 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 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 Keep you cool in this good life Won't let you down when it's all ruined Just the same way you showed me, showed me You showed me love Glory from above Good Glory, dear It's all downhill from here In the wake of a hurricane 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 Older kids trying off the roof Just the same way you showed me (you showed) If you could die and come back to life 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 stay alive And make it up when the sun is ruined That's the same way you showed me, showed me You showed me love Glory from above Where God could fear It's all downhill from here What a life Remember how it was Climb trees, Michael Jackson, all in this year Say what up to Magic, just shoot Say what up to Penny Say what up to life one more time And I know what you might want to know Run from me and your team Still ain't grabbin six (take it easy) Give me somethin sweet Bitch I might bite, ain't no tellin This is life, life immortality
this song is my therapy with my depression. You really appreciate music when you spend some time in a mental hospital. 😭 Still working on my depression but I do feel soooo much better.
Found Frank ocean when I started listening to Tyler the creator back in 2010-2011 when times were still good💔 this song for some reason gives me those vibes back then
"If you could die and come back to life, up for air from the swimming pool, you'd kneel down to the dry land, kiss the earth that birthed you, gave you tools just to stay alive and make it out when the sun is ruined" This whole part for me :')
That's the way every day goes Every time we've no control If the sky is pink and white If the ground is black and yellow It's the same way you showed me Nod my head, don't close my eyes Halfway 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 Still I'm someone to hold true Keep you cool when it's still alive Won't let you down when it's all ruin [Chorus] Just the same way you showed me, showed me You showed me love Glory from above Regard, my dear It's all downhill from here [Verse 2] In the wake of a hurricane Dark skin of a summer shade Nosedive into flood lines Tall tower of milk crates It's the same way you showed me Cannonball off the porch side Older kids trying off the roof Just the same way you showed me (You showed) If you could die and come back to life Up for air from the swimming pool You'd kneel down to the dry land Kiss the Earth that birthed you Gave you tools just to stay alive And make it out when the sun is ruined [Chorus] That's the same way you showed me, showed me You showed me love Glory from above Regard, my dear It's all downhill from here [Outro: Frank Ocean & Beyoncé] Remember life, remember how it was Climb trees, Michael Jackson, it all ends here Say what up to Matthew, to Shoob Say what up to Danny Say what up to life immortality Bending up my Nikes Running out the melpomene, nicotine Stealing granny cigs (Take it easy) Gimme something sweet Bitch, I might like immortality This is life, life immortality
This song is easily already a classic... the way it envelopes you with nostalgia, melancholy and emotion... a haunting feel that very few songs are able to deliver

I was learning this song on the piano for my dad about three or four months before he passed from lung cancer, which was in October of 2021. It's been two years, and I'm no longer avoiding this song.
@siolles dauph Let's remember that Solange has written or co written for Bey including Upgrade You and Get Me Bodied as well as for Destiny's Child and Kelly. She has taught big sis as well. Solange is in her OWN lane and is her own UNIQUE talent and would be whether Bey were her sister or not. Let's say they inspire each other and very few can write masterpieces like Solange did with Cranes in The Sky. Takes a certain amount of intellect.
I’m speechless. 😢 This song just hugs my insides tightly and makes me smile. I feel free, beautiful, unstoppable,and gorgeously me when I listen to it ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥💓💓❤️🔥💓💞💞💞💕💖💘💘💖💖
