Akon

Released: October 22, 2014

[Verse 1]
Everybody walks in different directions
Whole world's running to each his own
It's a place that justifies it all
And nobody's ever wrong
I guess we got agreed to disagree
Even if we say it in the same song
You can try to change your life that don't wanna be true
If we all see eye to eye, whole world will be grey

[Hook]
So let's keep running
To each his own
If we all keep running
Then we can toast
To each his own
And we'll be alright
And we'll be alright

Alright

[Verse 2]
Everybody wants for success for whatever that is
The world world's running for each his own
It's a place where the truth stays in the line
Cause nobody ever lies
And we follow our hearts into the night
Wake up, thank God to be alive
You can try to save a life that don't wanna be saved
If we all see eye to eye, the world will be grey

[Hook]

[Bridge]
I am who I am
You are who you are
I could wish on the clouds
And you could wish on the stars
We could be alright
We'll be alright
Alright
We'll be alright

[Hook]

Akon (born Aliaume Akon Thiam), is a Senegalese-American Grammy-nominated and platinum-selling rapper, songwriter, singer and businessman. His trademark is singing the word ‘convict’ at the beginning of most of his songs.

His career took off when Lil Zane introduced Akon to music executive DeVyne Stephens, who signed him to his label UpFront Records and became his longtime manager and business partner.
