Another track, “ Garden Shed ” featuring Estelle, revolves around forbidden love and keeping secrets.

Ayo
Garden shed, garden shed, garden shed, garden shed
For the garden
That is where I was hidin’
That was where love I was in
Ain’t no reason to pretend
Garden shed, garden shed, garden shed
Garden shed for the garcons
Them feelings I was guardin’
Heavy on my mind

All my friends lost
They couldn’t read the signs
I didn’t wanna talk and tell ’em my location
And they ain’t wanna walk
Truth is, since a youth kid, thought it was a phase
Thought it’d be like the Frank; poof, gone
But, it’s still goin’ on

Other people are also saying it’s nothing new and that he’s mentioned multiple times that he was gay. Interestingly enough, in 2015 Tyler posted an tweet that read: “I TRIED TO COME OUT THE DAMN CLOSET LIKE FOUR DAYS AGO AND NO ONE CARED HAHAHHAHAHA.”

Flower Boy is expected to officially arrive on July 21, and?features guest appearances from Frank Ocean, A$AP Rocky, Lil Wayne, Estelle, Roy Ayers and Jaden Smith.
