A música Ivy é uma reflexão melancólica sobre um amor perdido e a complexidade de sentimentos envolvidos no crescimento e nas relações passadas. Frank Ocean utiliza metáforas e referências pessoais para explorar temas como arrependimento, memória e a inevitabilidade da mudança ao longo do tempo.

I thought that I was dreaming when you said you love me
C
The start of nothing
G
I had no chance to prepare
Am
F
I couldn't see you coming
C
The start of nothing, ooh
G
I could hate you now
Am
F
It's quite alright to hate me now
C
G
When we both know that deep down
Am
F
The feeling still deep down is good
C
G
Am
If I could see through walls, I could see you're faking
Am
F
If you could see my thoughts you would see our faces
C
G
Am
Safe in my rental like an armored truck back then
Am
F
We didn't give a fuck back then
C
G
I ain't a kid no more
G
Am
F
We'll never be those kids again

We drived to Syd's, had the X6 back then

No matter what I did

Everything sucked back then

We were friends

In the halls of your hotel
Am
F
Arm around my shoulder so I could tell
C
G
Am
How much I meant to you, meant it sincere back then
F
We had time to kill back then
C
G
You ain't a kid no more

We'll never be those kids again

It's not the same, ivory's illegal
