lyrics

The story’s only yours to be told
Just keep your head up and never let it go

Taking a journey to a land afar
Been thinking
Of charting my voyage to a different star
Got a story to tell,
Goodbye, Farewell

Packing my bags and I’m on the run
Train’s leaving off to the land of eternal sun
Got a story to tell
Goodbye, Farewell

Riding the rails to my destiny
To where I’m ‘sposed to be
The engine is humming underneath my feet
I’m so far from home with still a ways to go

The ride is rocky and the road is long
But I know that my soul is never gonna steer me wrong
Gonna master the art of following my heart
And I won’t worry what tomorrow will bring,
I don’t need no second thought when it’s my heart I’m following

Riding on a train, taking my trip
And I’m gonna keep on riding ‘til I reach the mothership
Riding on a train, taking my trip
And we gonna keep on riding ‘til we reach the mothership

Just a beautiful jazzy rap album with buttery smooth flows versed with huge talent. It's not only lovely to the ears, but the lyrics are profound and empowering about the struggles that she faces. zhangtastic
