Tinashe - Staying Afloat lyrics

[Verse 1] Red bottoms to announce my arrival... Click clicking on that blacked out tile I see em looking so I smile, all the while Thinking you know I know That even you doubted I would ever make it Baby eat your heart out, tell me can you take it Going too hard tryna get right I be having blue dreams, up all night I'm, straight shuttin it down with my chin up Heard so many times I should give up Now they gonna talk sh** more than ever 'Sum inside won't quit, I remember [Chorus] Knowing where the wind will blow is impossible When you're still in the sky You gotta just let it blow... Just let it blow... Just let it blow... Just let it blow... Knowing where the river goes is impossible When you're still in the water Gotta just let it flow ...just let it flow And an indestructible faith Imma make it Oh, is what keeps me afloat [Verse 2] So you're going to school I'm a**uming? Uh, no, I spend full-time on my music People get so scared when they hear that Why can't I be young and independent? Face it I'm a f**ing monster Nothings gonna stop me I will never falter Say it like tinashe Yes it's from zimbabwe Better start to practice You'll mention me all day one day... Don't you see what's wrong with the system? These are the rules, shut up and obey them Brainwash the babies, teach them the same stuff Limit their minds so we all stay in line, so [Chorus] Knowing where the wind will blow is impossible When you're still in the sky You gotta just let it blow... Just let it blow... Just let it blow... Just let it blow... Knowing where the river goes is impossible When you're still in the water Gotta just let it flow ...just let it flow And an indestructible faith Imma make it Oh, is what keeps me afloat [Post-Chorus] I am floating yeah I am floating yeah I am floating... yeah Tryna stay afloat but the river's so deep Tryna stay afloat but the current's pulling me, oh Tryna stay afloat as it drags me out to sea Tryna stay afloat, better swim— gotta breathe, oh Tryna stay afloat but the river's so deep Tryna stay afloat but the current's pulling me, oh Tryna stay afloat as it drags me out to sea Tryna stay afloat, better swim— gotta breathe, oh [Chorus] Knowing where the wind will blow is impossible When you're still in the sky You gotta just let it blow... Just let it blow... Just let it blow... Just let it blow... Knowing where the river goes is impossible When you're still in the water Gotta just let it flow ...just let it flow And an indestructible faith Imma make it Oh, is what keeps me afloat
