It speaks to two people reaching a peak and subsequently falling short thereafter, every single time. The assertion that things go awry after the "glory" shows that while it may have been good between the two at some point, and the "glory" implies it was definitely really good, it clearly isn't anymore. Just the same way you showed me, showed meYou showed me loveGlory from aboveGood Glory, dearIt's all downhill from here The hook certainly gives more info on the way that romantic relationship is or was directed. But, what I do get from it is that Ocean is speaking directly to someone, someone he is or was likely romantically involved with, judging by the intimate feel these lyrics give off. As per Genius, the first verse goes: That's the way everyday goesEvery time we have no controlIf the sky is pink and whiteIf the ground is black and yellowIt's the same way you showed meNod my head, don't close my eyesHalf way on a slow moveIt's the same way you showed meIf you could fly then you'd feel southUp north's getting cold soonThe way it is, we're on landSo I'm someone to hold trueKeep you cool in this good lifeWon't let you down when it's all ruinedĪdmittedly, that in and of itself doesn't give too much away in its abstractness. So, let's take that little factoid into consideration when taking a closer look at what the song is trying to say. The thing is, you don't include Bey on a song that doesn't mean something. Sure, she's only heard for a blink-and-miss-it moment, it but her presence makes quite the mark, regardless.
The singer provides listeners with endless clues in his lyrics, some of which are even sung by the Queen herself, her majesty, Beyonce.

How to start off such an analysis? Well, by looking at the source material, of course. But let's narrow the focus for comprehension's sake, shall we? For this installment, let's focus just one one particularly good song, "Pink + White." But just what is Ocean's "Pink+White" about? Because it's quite heavy, and needs to be discussed. It is required, especially because of the album's intricateness and clear detail in each note and lyric. Have you put on your sleuthing outfit yet? You know, the one you wear to help figure out the overarching theme of all of Frank Ocean's songs? Sure, it might be dusty after four years of not being used, but with Ocean's release of his album Blonde, it is more than needed.
