I only say hurtful things to you when I'm mad
Truth is I never found another man, said it to make you jealous, hoping you change up a little
And I'm not looking for another, heart saying stay single
Can't take no more heart breaks, you can't break me
And they get mad when I tell em' fall back
Always asking where my boyfriend at
Tell me how to work this thing (taps mic)
Tell me how to work this thing (tap, tap, tap)
Is it on, testing testing, one two three
I'm good, I'm good, just got to prove it
Testing, Testing, one, two, three
Tell me how to do this thing
Tell me how to work it
Is it on, testing testing, one two three
I'm good just got to prove it
(taps mic)
(ayy somebody come check this thing man)
Trying to follow my dreams, following my heart
There's not a lot of open doors where I'm from
To get to the biggest city, you have to cross the river
Closer to my dreams, Goapele
To get to the biggest city, you have to cross the river
Closer to my dreams, Goapele
Never been so afraid to love
This is it I know it, trying to play it cool
And just so you know
I'm not the one to play with
I'm the one you stay with
Come home with
Make babies with
Build bigger dreams with
See the unknown with
Take off your clothes with
Trying to follow my dreams, following my heart
There's not a lot of open doors where I'm from
To get to the biggest city, you have to cross the river
Closer to my dreams, Goapele
To get to the biggest city, you have to cross the river
Closer to my dreams, Goapele
Hello, Hello
Okay now it's on
Assume the position
Let us all just carry on
(skkkkrrrr) damn this thing loud, ouch! My ear
To get to the biggest city, you have to cross the river
Closer to my dreams, Goapele
(Damn, am I doing this right, somebody please come check this mic)
Gettin' on my nerves
