about

What do you do when you're at the bottom-of-your-barrel thinking of ways to get to your goals? When your patience is wearing thin while waiting for your day in the sun? Or you're outta your wits from the problems that beset you?! You FLOAT. A chill-out driving music for days you just want to skip, Njel de Mesa sings the blues away with this new fusion R&B single.

lyrics

Chorus
I'LL FLOAT
IMMA JUST GO WITH THE FLOW
'COS I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GO
AND I CAN'T FIND MY WAY
WELL TO HELL WITH THIS DAY
I'LL FLOAT
IMMA JUST GO WITH THE FLOW
'COS I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GO
AND I'M SINGIN' THIS SONG
SO IT DON'T FEEL SO WRONG

SEE MAMA SAYS I'M CLIMBIN' THE EVEREST
AND SHE SUGGEST
THAT I PERSIST
AND
'TIL THE WORLD IS LISTENIN'
BUT SOMETIMES WHEN THE CADENCE
INDICATES AND OBVIOUSLY IS SLOW
YOU KINDA LOSE YOUR PATIENCE
BUT I GUESS IT'S A GAME
AND IT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME
THERE WILL ALWAYS BE PAIN
BUT IN THE END YOU GET THE GAIN
SO IGNORE THOSE OTHER PEOPLE
WHO THINK YOU'RE INSANE
DON'T YOU BE STRESSIN' OUT
OR EVEN FILL YOUR HEART WITH DOUBT

Refrain
SO I TRY
TO LOOK UP TO THE SKY
AND SEE A SILVER LINING IN THE CLOUDS THAT PASSES ME BY
I ASK WHY
WITH A SIGH
JUST GIVE ME A SIGN
TO TELL ME I'M FINE
'COS I'M RUNNIN' OUT OF TIME

Repeat Chorus

PROBLEMS
CRISIS
CHALLENGES
AND PRICES
KEEP YOUR HEAD ABOVE THE WATER
SAY "WHATEVER"
COMES
IMMA LET THOSE DAILY TROUBLE COME
IMMA MAKE THEM LINE-UP
AND IMMA TELL THEM "WASSUP?!"
BUT RIGHT NOW
I'M NOT FEELIN' BRIGHT NOW
AND SOMEHOW
I'M NOT UP BUT I'M NOT DOWN
SO IMMA WAIT FOR MY CUE
AND TO WHOEVER WROTE THIS SONG
SOMEDAY IMMA THANK YOU
YOU KNOW WHO?

Repeat Refrain and Chorus
