Stormzy gets romantic on "You're Like."

The last time we heard from Stormzy, he was lyrically decapitating his rivals over Drake's "Back To Back" beat, but today, he comes back in a much different mode. "You're Like" comes accompanied by artwork that shows Mickey and Minnie Mouse smiling and embracing, and that pretty much sets the tone for the song itself.

Stormzy kicks things off a cappella with some surprisingly adept singing before the beat, a warm, "Family Business"-style slice of chipmunk soul, kicks in. He spits some relatable relationship bars like "I wrote this song for you so you could show your friends / And tell 'em 'my boyfriend's the best' until they get annoyed," and winds up with a truly charming track.

Quotable Lyrics

You hate to see me leave and I hate to see the back of you
Wait, nah, I love to see the back of you
Look, I'm only joking, but jokes aside, I'm so grateful
How did my girlfriend become my guardian angel
