Am I the only one playing "Pyramids" like this?

Whenever i listen to "Pyramids" by Frank Ocean, i always skip the first part and go straight to the second half of the song. This second segment is such a bliss for ears, the beat, the pad, the synth, the arpeggio, the vocals, the hook ("she's working at the pyramids at night") - all of this is so perfect and such a perfect combination. But the first half... it just falls off for me, i cannot listen to it, for some reason, the beat and lead synth with noise mixed up sounds so weird and doesn't come any close to what the second part is. Is someone else feeling this way?
