[English]

In my ear drum, reminds me

His name was just way down in my feet

And this moment will fly like the breeze

You can't control something left to live free

And the rhythm's exciting

My windows tell this road through the streets

I'm glad you get this one for cheap

In Harlem, where I started to breathe

The beat was like a soundtrack to me

I was the girl, my daddy built my world

He played the notes and keys

He said to look for melody in everything

It feels just like it should

To wake up this, and 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 beat vibrates right through me

We press the strings, I love everything

Let them play, forget the time, make it stay

Watch the doors, dance and give it away

Just around me, I hear it

The melody was right over me

The place to grow was happening for me

It feels just like it should

To wake up this, and 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

The beat was like a soundtrack to me

I was the girl, my daddy built my world

He played the notes and keys

He said to look for melody in everything

It feels just like it should

To wake up this, and 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

It feels just like it should

To wake up this, and 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, it feels just like it should

To wake up this, and 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
