Post Malone scores his fourth top five hit and Swae Lee lands his second with ‘Sunflower,’ a featured track from the great new movie Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.
In the film, the song is a favorite of lead character Miles Morales.
This is as good a time as any to recommend Into the Spider-Verse, which is certainly one of the best attempts to bring the webslinger to the screen (and there have been many).
The movie has wit, charm, genuine thrills and a visual style that sets it apart from both the live-action Spider-Man movies and most traditional animated films.
Definitely check it out before it leaves theaters.
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy (Ooh)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (Ooh)
Ayy, ayy
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 1: Swae Lee]
Needless to say, I keep it in check
She was all bad-bad, nevertheless (Yeah)
Callin’ it quits now, baby, I’m a wreck (Wreck)
Crash at my place, baby, you’re a wreck (Wreck)
Needless to say, I’m keeping her checked
She was all bad-bad, nevertheless
Callin’ it quits now, baby, I’m a wreck
Crash at my place, baby, you’re a wreck
Thinkin’ in a bad way, losin’ your grip
Screamin’ at my face, baby, don’t trip
Someone took a big L, don’t know how that felt
Lookin’ at you sideways, party on tilt
Ooh-ooh, some things you just can’t refuse
She wanna ride me like a cruise and I’m not tryna lose
[Chorus: Swae Lee]
Then you’re left in the dust, unless I stuck by ya
You’re the sunflower, I think your love would be too much
Or you’ll be left in the dust, unless I stuck by ya
You’re the sunflower, you’re the sunflower
[Verse 2: Post Malone]
Every time I’m leavin’ on ya (Ooh)
You don’t make it easy, no (No, no)
Wish I could be there for ya (Ooh)
Give me a reason to, oh (Oh)
Every time I’m walkin’ out (Oh)
I can hear you tellin’ me to turn around (Oh, oh)
Fightin’ for my trust and you won’t back down (No)
Even if we gotta risk it all right now, oh (Now)
I know you’re scared of the unknown (-Known)
You don’t wanna be alone (Alone)
I know I always come and go (And go)
But it’s out of my control
[Chorus: Post Malone]
And you’ll be left in the dust, unless I stuck by ya
You’re the sunflower, I think your love would be too much
Or you’ll be left in the dust, unless I stuck by ya
You’re the sunflower, you’re the sunflower (Yeah)
Meet Me In Montauk 
Love love love love love this movie!! Can’t recommend it enough. And this song is pretty wonderful as well. 🙂
Ditto what you and Maddie said.
I have heard very little about this movie — the music video gives me a taste of it. Thank you for — yet again — expanding my musical and cultural horizons.
