Once in a Where the girls feel girls And the world is painted cotton (cotton candy) Where the sweet lemonade of street (sweet lemonade) Was the best damn of the summer breeze Your dad drives a car (a foreign car) And mama looks like a beauty queen
Now the sour taste (sour bitter taste) Of a waste Seems to light up my nights And the I play must be Loud, loud, loud, as can be So I don't to hear myself think (no, no) So I don't to wake up from this (no, no)
I don't wanna sing no single mama I'm not look at me I've been abused Oh I'm another silly lost staring at you (staring at you) So maybe put on my high heel shoes (ba, ba) And soar the away (ba, ba) And the night away (ba, ba,) But I do
I'm not gonna slow this bird (down) I wanna look life in the eye (eye) I'm not gonna fall first in this spiral called a life I'm not (no) I'm not (no) Not an (no) I'm not out here So just the fuck up (shut the fuck up) bird's not slowin' down
Once in a (once in a while) the sun does its job Lets the clouds take a day off (day off) I can through the day And just run the night (run through the night) Hearing come from those big blue eyes His smile blazes like On the evening of of july So I got to fly
Slowin' (down, down, down, down) down (down, down, down, down) down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, Slowin'
[Solange not over yet The song isn't yet
no birds gonna slow me I'ma on rollin' And ain't no gonna me down on rollin' And ain't no gonna me down I'ma keep on And ain't no gonna slow me ("rollin' " throughout background)
