Childish Gambino - Sweatpants Meaning

Song Released: 2014

Sweatpants Lyrics

Watching haters wonder why Gambino got the game locked
Half-Thai thickie, all she wanna do is Bangkok
Got her hair done, French braids, now she A$AP
Bino so insensitive, she asking, "Why you say that?!"
I'm chillin', real nigga feeling
Rich...

   Sweatpants is about lazy rich white American kids...
   And they irritate Bino. He rolls his eyes in the video and appears annoyed throughout.
   White kids trying to act hard but they're privileged and don't know what it's like to struggle.
   The have "glass houses in the Palisades. White hood. White hood. O KKK."
   Jay-Z graduated to the MoMA, but rich white kid's dad "OWNS half the MoMA."
   It's called Sweatpants because they're lazy and didn't have to work for any of their wealth, privilege, or status.
   "I was born rich, life ain't fair."
   They use their privilege when it's convenient and when it's not convenient, they're still "winning, yeah, yeah, I'm winning. Paint me as a villian..." cause "I don't give af about my family name."
   Bino points to the false pretense and ridiculousness of their attitude... rich, silver spoon white America would not have the advantages they have if they weren't born who they were born.

   Gambino goes through the restaurant 3 times an each time they represent him(look like him) more and more and near the end when he says "I dont give a fuxk about my family name" everything goes silent because he is a douche back then and everyone knows it and everyone hates him because eof his douchy ways

   Very simple.
   Everyone thinks he's a douche just cause he's rich.
