Flow Lyrics
I woke up to find the earth was round one day
And all around the world now, things began to change
Never had I ever seen the sun
Rise that way above the day to greet the dawn
And the earth shook beneath my feet
And the storm raged through the night
And I lost all that I had won
Oh, but I flowed like the river
[Chorus]
Flow, oh-oh-oh, ooh
Flow, woah-woah, ooh
[Verse 2]
So you think you got it all figured out
All this money in the bank and women all about
Well, now whatcha gonna do when your ship starts to sink?
Caught in a monstrous sea and you won't be able to think
Yeah, and it's there you'll learn what I know
That all of this world will fade
You gotta learn to let it all go
Oh, and flow like the river
[Chorus]
Flow, oh-oh-oh-oh, ooh
Flow, woah-woah-oh, ooh

I wrote while I was living in Tenessee for a while. That was a day that I was stressed out ‘bout somethings going on in life. I decided to walk down to this river that was close to my house with my guitar. That song kinda came out in 50 minutes. That song is called “Flow.”
