Paved with Gold - Sampa the Great, Estelle

In the light, in the dark

When my engine lost its spark

When my vision blurred and I can’t be heard

And I can’t locate my path

And I’m filled with indecision

And I can’t be sure enough

And I’m weary, lost and stuck

And the voice within me shut

Say to me

When the beat goes heart

Renegade

And we eat go yard

And we don’t dance around with my heart

Man ago swear they passion go hard

If you don’t stand alone you gone fall alone

I believe in me and go hard

And you gon' walk right out of your pain

And you gon' walk right into your path

And I believe you a come up

Bish you a stunner

Yes you a winner like your father

Baba, music gon reign, you a runna

And you gon' rise to the top, nigga, tada

Voila, mama, I’ma be bold

I’ma be strong, I’ma be gold

I’ma gonna grow me straight to my path

Music gonna grow me straight to my soul

I know

I know for certain

The streets weren’t paved with gold

Still got your soul

I know it’s pressure, baby

But hold on to it all

Still got your soul

In the high and the lows

In the midst of friends and foes

When you elevate your spirit

And you reaching all your goals

When the light, it shines within you

And the streets is paved with gold

And the pressure falls behind me

All the lies I often told

Say to me when the beats go hard

Resonate and I feel my spark

And I don’t dance around with my heart

And I’m gon' swear my passion go hard

And I have been through the wire

And seen the fire

Mans in a higher empire

And I just walked right out of my pain

And I’m gon' walk right into my path

And I believe I’m a come up

Bis I’m a stunner

Yes I’m a winner like my father

Baba, music gon' run, I’m a stunner

And I’m gon' rise to the top, nigga, tada

Voila, baba, I’ma be bold

I’ma be strong, I’ma be gold

Music gonna grow me straight to the path

Music gonna grow me straight to my soul

I know for certain

The streets weren’t paved with gold

Still got your soul

I know it’s pressure, baby

But hold on to it all

Still got your soul

All or nothing

Gave it something

I’m still running

I’m still stunting

Melody

And it keep coming

Memory…

Tadadaddada

All of it inna my soul

Tadadada

My path

My soul

I know for certain

The streets weren’t paved with gold

Still got your soul

I know it’s pressure, baby

But hold on to it all

Still got your soul
