  • And my ear drum, reminds me
    His name was just way down in my feet
    And this moment, well, I can't breathe
    You can't control, something that's getting free
    And the rhythm's, exciting
    Oh when I start this road full of streets
    I'm glad you get this one for cheap

    In Harlem, where I started to breathe
    Your beat was like a soundtrack to me
    I was the girl, my daddy was the world
    He played the notes and keys
    He said to look for melody in everything

    It feels just like it should
    I wake up, this, this is what it looks like
    So don't miss this, this is what it looks like
    So call on me, it feels just like it should
    So call on me

    The best favorites, go through me
    I press the strings, I love everything
    Hurtful pain, forget the time and keep staying
    Hold the doors, dance and give it away
    Just around me, I hear it
    And melody was right over me
    But whistleblowers happened for me

    It feels just like it should
    I wake up, this, this is what it looks like
    So don't miss this, this is what it looks like
    So call on me, it feels just like it should
    So call on me

    In Harlem, where I started to breathe
    Your beat was like a soundtrack to me
    I was the girl, my daddy was the world
    He played the notes and keys
    He said to look for melody in everything

    It feels just like it should
    I wake up, this, this is what it looks like
    So don't miss this, this is what it looks like
    So call on me, it feels just like it should
    So call on me
