[Intro: Estelle]
Alright, turn the music up
And my vocals, listen
[Chorus: Estelle]
I packed up all my bags and then I hit the door
I landed in the land of whatever goes it goes
I gave you guys my heart in each and every show
And I sing, yeah I flow, yeah I sing, yeah I flow
I packed up all my bags and then I hit the door
I landed in the land of whatever goes it goes
I gave you guys my heart in each and every show
And I sing, yeah I flow, yeah I sing, yeah I flow
[Verse 1: Estelle]
I never used to say a lot but now I'm sayin' everything
Used to let 'em chat me, thought I got the bigger win
But every now and then, you gotta get into the dirt
Get out of your way and let these fuckers know the work
This the real work, yeah
I can't take the fake in
Plastic ain't the movement, you think I'm playin'
Think I moved a entire country for my family
And got these little anythings out with no hand to me
Yeah, I'm in the mood, I gotta tell the truth
Yeah, I'm in the mood but that ain't nothin' new
They linin' up to shoot and still I play by the rules
But trust me, you be in the mood if you were in my shoes
You thought you'd ride me like a train? But I bet you don't
You thought you'd play me like a game? But I swear you won't
I brought ya' down a hundred times, always come up dope
But baby, I survive and watch these others choke
[Chorus: Estelle]
I packed up all my bags and then I hit the door
I landed in the land of whatever goes it goes
I gave you guys my heart in each and every show
And I sing, yeah I flow, yeah I sing, yeah I flow
I packed up all my bags and then I hit the door
I landed in the land of whatever goes it goes
I gave you guys my heart in each and every show
And I sing, yeah I flow, yeah I sing, yeah I flow
[Verse 2: John Legend]
Hey, dreams of a grown up kid
Small town, buddy, think big
Combination of the power and the passion
Fly high, not afraid of crashin'
Vroom, vroom, keep movin'
Vroom, keep doin' what we're doin'
Can't tell me nothin' now, turn my music way loud
I never knew I'd make it
Never knew I light the sky like Vegas
There's somethin' in my heart, somethin' in my heart
Said lady, I think I'll buy ya' a as a new ride
Move up to the east side
We out of here, let's go, my dear
[Outro: Estelle]
Yeah, and so I packed up all my bags, I moved up to the hills
I took it to the stars, now that's the way we live
I'm lookin' at my life, I love the way it is
'Cause I flow, and I sing, yeah I flow, and I sing
I packed up all my bags, I moved up to the hills
I took it to the stars, now that's the way we live
I'm lookin' at my life, I love the way it is
'Cause I flow, and I sing, yeah I flow, and I sing
Alright, turn the music up
And my vocals, listen
[Chorus: Estelle]
I packed up all my bags and then I hit the door
I landed in the land of whatever goes it goes
I gave you guys my heart in each and every show
And I sing, yeah I flow, yeah I sing, yeah I flow
I packed up all my bags and then I hit the door
I landed in the land of whatever goes it goes
I gave you guys my heart in each and every show
And I sing, yeah I flow, yeah I sing, yeah I flow
[Verse 1: Estelle]
