Float Lyrics
I can't hear myself
Yeah
(When I see you, I)
No, I'm–, no, I'm not–, no, I'm not the same
No, I'm not the same, no, I'm not the same, no, I'm not the–, fuck
No, I'm not the same, uh
I think I done changed, yeah
Woo, woo woo
No, I'm not the same, nigga (Not the same, no)
I think I done changed, nigga, uh
See somethin' not the same, nigga (Not the same, no)
I used to walk into the room head down
I don't walk, now I float
Float on 'em, I float on 'em, just float
They hangin' on to that Goose down in my coat
Float on 'em, I float on 'em, just float
I don't step, I don't walk, I don't dance, I just
Float, float, float, float
I don't dance, I just
Float, float, mm, float, float, float
Mm, I just float
I'm light as a feather, I'm light as a feather, yeah, baby, I float
It's hard to look at my resume, hoo, and not find a reason to toast
She throwin' that thang in a circle, makin' in viral, I might just elope
Say, "Listen lil' mama, you like shibari? Watch while I show you the ropes"
I used to let niggas get to me, I used to be my own enemy
Now I done had several epiphanies over some breakfast at Tiffany's
Had to forgive all my frenemie, they are not who they pretend to be
I had to protect all my energy, I'm feelin' much lighter, now I
Float on 'em, I float on 'em, just float
They hangin' onto that Goose down in my coat
Float on 'em, I float on 'em, just float
I don't step, I don't walk, I don't dance, I just
Float, float, float, float
I don't dance, I just
Float, float, mm, float, float, float
Mm, I just float
I wear the attire, check out the robe. I'm fresh like a pope
I'm doin' my dance, on catamarans and you gotta cope
I'm counting my blessings, we ain't stressin', just look at this glow
I got that magic, I'm really prepared for whatever, whenever so who want the smoke?
Came back from the future to take all y'all niggas and take all y'all hoes
They said I was bi, yeah, baby, I'm by a whole 'nother coast
She stay in the hills, he stay in Atlanta, I paid for them both
My face card don't come with a limit, I swipe it, I spend it, I swear I be doin' the most
Float, float on 'em, I float on 'em, just float
They hangin' on to that Goose down in my coat
Float on 'em, I float on 'em, just float
I don't step, I don't walk, I don't dance, I just
Float, float, float, float
I don't dance, I just
Float, float, mm, float, float, float
(When I see you, I)
Alright, I have a toast if you're willing to repeat it
Yeah
Repeat after me
Alright
To the lives we lead
(To the lives we lead)
To the dreams we chase
(To the dreams we chase)
To the moments that we make
(To the moments that we make)
And the fucked up shit we can't erase
(And the fucked up shit we can't erase, whoaa)
