Vince Staples “When Sparks Fly" Official Lyrics & Meaning | Verified

[@EternalLight940]

I like how he played around the actual meaning of the sound and gave an alternate perspective that was still meaningful, dude really is an amazing artist.

[@gelel918]

His album deserves to be in the convo for best of the year

[@younggodicarus]

@@Kurosaka nah it definitely is an aoty contender next to denzel curry

[@glizzo1034]

@@Kurosaka best.

[@kwes1507]

Vince always had my ear he makes you think

[@fentanyljones6956]

He’s straight trolling em. He shoulda had album of the year w/ this.

[@coffeebean1465]

Vince made every bar a double entendre. An insanely well written and well delivered song.

[@swaggyg6093]

This album and this song in particular really moved me in a time I was low. Art is so important and the ability to connect to it is one of the best experiences to feel

[@fleeceboi]

This song is definitely about his gun but I love the double meanings regardless. Vince da GOAT

[@jervelove2544]

Man you’re like the only person I’ve seen that ACTUALLY understands the song😂

[@connerstibich5478]

@@jervelove2544I mean its meant to be interpreted in different ways…. So everyone knows the meaning

[@HOkilla805]

Thank u,I found this song today and listened 5times trying to figure if it was a gun or a girl.

[@mekaquintana9813]

No it’s a gun talking about him if you really listen

[@bonezgstable]

It's literally about both bruh. Use your heads. 🤣🥴🤦‍♂️

[@badguytalks6655]

Vince has to be top5 humans on this earth..dawg really sat here and trolled Genius 😂😂😂😂

[@user-og2pp4rz5s]

ramona park broke my heart is definitely my top 3 if not my album of the year. i didn’t expect to love it this much, i’m a newish fan and didn’t have many expectations. im so glad for this man, he’s so underrated. also top tier song. it’s deep and the flow is so mesmerising. love vince!

[@jemwaves]

Yes to this comment

[@johnschustek9308]

if your a new vince fan check out big fish theory and summertime 06

[@MillerFBaby91]

His self titled album is the best he’s ever made

[@dabs.47]

check out his mixtapes Shyne Coldchain Vol 1 and 2 also "Stolen Youth" with Mac Miller he produced the whole thing man's couldn't make a trash song even then .. you can listen to them on here he's the only artist I actually watched blossom to the artist he is now, since he was heavily affiliated with Odd Future back then, it's a blessing 💯 I remember when "queens bridge zoo" was his only music video

[@user38211]

Vince just keeps on getting better with age, I didn’t expect him to breakdown my favorite song. It’s amazing to see him smile, be more vulnerable on projects, and have a show on Netflix. I’m ready to see him tour next 😌🤎

[@terrillmaxwell3862]

That I do agree with

[@luzlavivora]

For sure one of my top favorite songs of all time, stays on repeat ✨

[@dgayle2348]

This was like the sequel to Nas "I Gave you Power" and Vince wrote this beautifully.

[@julionmenyfield5389]

And "Me & My Girlfriend".

[@colinwhite1997]

this the most calm and serious we've seen vince in a minute

[@GaryPwner]

The fact that the song's perspective is left up for interpretation is already amazing, let alone the beautiful sample and the rest of the album its attached to

[@JC-rs3nh]

i realized it was a metaphor for a firearm upon my second listen. but obviously it’s about love as well. top 5 albums this year

This song made me tear up when I first heard it

[@renej.morales5609]

In my opinion.. this has to be the best episode in which the artist gives you their meaning behind the song lyrics!.. awesome!

[@micahcobb7580]

Fr and you can hear him immediately trying to hold back the emotion and stay composed from the get-go, it’s obvious his work means so much to him

[@Whowhatidkbro]

This is one of best songs ever made. In history.

[@DeathandGrim2]

Bro really committed to the bit so hard LMAO that's a dedicated troll right there. But it also shows just how much skill he has as a songwriter that the double entendre is entirely a plausible explanation as well

[@redericson1993]

There's something about Vince Staples as a truthful black man that brings my mind, body and soul back to its center.

[@KristieKillick]

“I think it’s important to speak on your reality” facts!

[@duduzanitondori1334]

Vince is a legend, this album will last for years.

[@yawbonney6799]

"Your side,my side and the truth" greatest words i ever heard

[@untitled917]

man Vince staples is one of the most underrated rappers right now, he has a lot of potential

[@992porter]

Bro! We all know it’s about a gun but also the way he broke these thoughts down it applies to just the simple emotion of love with 2 people

[@LockzYT]

Ramona park broke my heart easily album of the year wish i would’ve found Vince staples sooner

[@stevelacylover11]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I LOVE HIM SM OMG his lyrics ALWAYS have such a deep meaning and I love how he takes the time to get us all to think when we hear his songs. He seems like such a cool dude to be in a room with and vibe with. I love how he left the song up to his fans to interpret the song however we want, how he's so real as an artist, AND how hes like one of the very few rappers WHO SOUND THE SAME LIVE! broo i was vibing the whole timee

[@depthbomb94]

Amen. If you liked this song check out I gave you power by Nas. Kinda the same concept 🐐🐐

[@kboogie617]

One of my favorite songs this year

[@tanishiadungy9890]

So happy you guys had him break this song down. I would have never looked at it as a relationship with a gun. I was always looking at it as a relationship with a thug and his woman supporting him. This is a very deep song and my favorite song on the album. 🙏🏾💖

[@horacejnr2]

Is funny how the Grammys won’t consider nominating this album as “Album of the year” but we the real fans know he won this beautifully and had the best project with the mid projects most rappers dropped this year !

[@Teezydiddat]

Vince staples has 2 albums that are runners for AOTY

[@MatthewGrim777]

Hell nah I got a theory the song is lowkey from the perspective of a gun, when you listen to it again with that context it makes sense

[@romcwolf]

The first verse is from the perspective of the gun to him. The second verse is from him to the gun

[@pixie5050]

I love you so much
