One time I was at the beach
And we were looking at the stars
And this girl was laying next to me
And the blanket that we had was, had stars on it as well
It looked liked we were just floating in an abyss
Honestly, when I see her face I just smile I guess
I mean, our cars came and the lights were on on them so we could see what the waves look like
I′ll be waiting here on the sand
I remember that first night you were wearing a power ranger black T-shirt
So was I, a different color, so was Moey and his brother
Not as pure, so insecure
The times have changed
But really we just looked up at the stars
For a couple hours, turned off all the lights on the cars
The world was ours it was, yours
It was mine
The time flew by like it was prime time and I'm inside of
Life, you shouldn′t be my wife you should just be with me on this beautiful night
Maybe we can make things right
Maybe we can do it without any spite
It's just for tonight, and we hope it doesn't end
So we drive back to our homes chilling with our friends

Balling like Jabari Parker, they say I look like him
If we met bet it would be awkward break out the sudafed
Cause the flow cold, like it′s so cold
I was smoking smoking John Lennon where my Yoko?
This that call yo grandma you ain′t ready yet
Verbal maniac, imma show you the illest get my cousin to kill it
Had a flow but you steal it, I'm in the mood so we ball out
Got the top down in the back we could fall out
We could fall out, nigga we could fall out
Your girlfriend push a prius she giving me that genius
Mensa, we that Tony Danza
Wine on the rug man you know that shit expensive
I′m on that Willy Wonka, green so Blanka
Vape so good and the pot like lobster
Nigga imma monster, fuck it I'm a monstar
Man, I got this beat I′m going ham like a cop car
That's unless you see me pulling up on the boulevard
Turn them flashing lights, at least you know who you really are
We are becoming god
We are becoming god
We are becoming god
We are becoming god
We are becoming god
We are becoming god
We are becoming god
We are becoming god
We are becoming god
We are becoming god

Goddamn, Goddamn Goddamn
Yo it′s kinda hard not to like, get fucking cheesy on this shit
But, does that even matter?
You know what I′m saying, juxtaposition man, juxta fucking position
My nigga Jaden Smith dropping jewels and niggas don't believe him cause he′s Jaden Smith but
It's all about packaging right?
Real shit though, good and bad is all relative man
It really is, a lot of niggas is sheep
We don′t even know what we like anymore we just know what the most hype is shit
Do you really like that shit you like?
Or you like the way they gave it to you?
You know what I'm saying? Pepsi, Coca-Cola same thing
Dave Chapelle said that, the one that taste the best was the one that was paying him the most at the time
That′s all that happens with us man, we some weak niggas man all of us
Followers, sheeps, plural made that shit up
Apology ain't no real word my nigga
We know this, but he knows more cause he broke the rules that don't even fucking exist man
Funny thing is man is like, as a futurist, and I can call myself a futurist
Nobody is even going to give a fuck until I′m gone
So does it even matter?
Yes it does

Dalam lagu *Late Night In Kauai*, Childish Gambino dan Jaden Smith berhasil menyampaikan pesona malam yang tenang di pantai, sembari menyisir tema hubungan manusia dan refleksi diri. Liriknya membawa pendengar pada sebuah pengalaman emosional yang mendalam, menggambarkan keindahan sederhana dari kebersamaan di bawah bintang-bintang.
Vibe Nostalgia dan Kenangan Indah
Diawali dengan gambaran pemandangan malam di pantai, lirik tersebut menyentuh pada momen-momen berharga saat dua orang menikmati kebersamaan. Uraian tentang “laying next to me” dan “the blanket that we had was, had stars on it as well” menyiratkan ketenangan dan kedekatan yang intim. Momen ini dikontraskan dengan elemen-alasan sekitar seperti “the cars came and the lights were on”, yang memberikan kesan bahwa dunia di luar masih berjalan, tetapi pada saat yang sama, mereka merasakan bahwa “the world was ours”.
Perubahan dan Ketidakpastian
Dalam lirik, terdapat pengakuan terhadap perubahan yang terjadi seiring berjalannya waktu. Ungkapan “Not as pure, so insecure” menunjukkan bahwa meskipun ada kenangan indah, hubungan ini juga dibayangi oleh keraguan dan ketidakpastian. Perubahan menciptakan jejak kesedihan, namun lirik ini berusaha untuk mengatasi dengan harapan di masa depan, “maybe we can make things right”.
Refleksi Diri dan Kritikan Sosial
Jaden Smith dalam bagian akhir lirik menghadirkan pandangan yang lebih luas mengenai eksistensi dan persepsi sosial. Ucapannya “a lot of niggas is sheep” menekankan bagaimana masyarakat sering kali menjadi pengikut tanpa mempertanyakan apa yang sebenarnya mereka sukai. Poin ini ditandai dengan perbandingan yang cerdas antara produk konsumer seperti “Pepsi, Coca-Cola”, yang menunjukkan bahwa banyak orang didorong oleh apa yang sedang hype tanpa pendekatan kritis.
Kesimpulan: Sebuah Pengalaman yang Relatif
Melalui lirik *Late Night In Kauai*, Childish Gambino dan Jaden Smith mengeksplorasi luasnya pengalaman manusia, dari cinta yang rinci dan nostalgia, hingga kesadaran sosial yang mendalam. Lagu ini mengajak pendengar untuk merenung tentang hubungan mereka dengan orang lain dan dengan dunia di sekitar mereka. Apa yang kita pilih untuk dicintai, dan bagaimana kita menginterpretasikan kehidupan, ternyata berlapis-lapis dan sangat subjektif. Terlepas dari waktu dan tempat, ini adalah sebuah pengingat bahwa “good and bad is all relative”, dan kita adalah penentu dari narasi hidup kita sendiri.
