  • Yes
    Ah
    Yeah yeah, ready for the summer, girl, your hair look killer
    See your batty getting bigger but your waist looks slimmer
    And I hope I'm still with you when your hair get thinner
    I ain't gotta work it out, I know I'm on to a winner
    And I love it when I see you sing a song in the mirror
    When you play your favourite records where there ain't no filler
    Chicky-cha-chicky-chicky, Sade, J Dilla
    Now I'm on the right track, went from a train to a limo
    Now we on the right track
    Used to know me back in college, now I got it like that
    Could've gotten sidetracked, now I'm back on my feet
    If I hadn't achieved, would you pack up and leave?
    Now you're scratching on me like we're Adam and Eve
    Playing "Remix to Ignition" in the back of the Jeep, ah
    She like the hook but she don't know the verse
    She know I love her even if I never say the words

    You were something I can't replace
    You made my heart work
    You make me stronger
    I'm not letting go, I'm not letting go

    You were something I can't replace
    You made my heart work
    You make me stronger
    I'm not letting go, I'm not letting go

    Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh
    I'm not letting go, I'm not letting go
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh
    I'm not letting go, I'm not letting go

    Living in a bubble, we ain't struggling in life
    Ready for your trouble and a couple of fights
    Why don't you stay over here and keep me up in the night
    And when you're coming in here, I'll do it just like you like
    Girl I'm ready for your loving, girl I keep on falling
    You my lucky number that I keep on calling
    Wanna never let me go, she said she fed up of touring
    Because I kiss her in the night and I then leave in the morning
    I tell her one, already know she the one
    She 22, we in Le Fontainebleau
    And when she's free, you know she call on me
    And then I make her take it off and pull it all on me
    Playing in the sheets, don't sleep tonight
    Playing R. Kelly, I Believe I Can Fly, yeah
    She like the hook but she don't know the verse
    She know I love her even if I never say the words

    You were something I can't replace
    You made my heart work
    You make me stronger
    I'm not letting go, I'm not letting go

    You were something I can't replace
    You made my heart work
    You make me stronger
    I'm not letting go, I'm not letting go

    Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh
    I'm not letting go, I'm not letting go
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh
    I'm not letting go, I'm not letting go

    Oi my size, I see you're quite shy
    Guess I'm a sucker for those nice eyes
    I ain't in it for the money or the fame
    I'm the one that all the honeys couldn't tame, yo I changed
    You make my heart work
    You make me stronger (you know I changed)
    This thing we have
    It can't be bought or sold, now

    You were something I can't replace
    You made my heart work
    You make me stronger
    I'm not letting go, I'm not letting go

    You were something I can't replace
    You made my heart work
    You make me stronger
    I'm not letting go, I'm not letting go

    Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh
    I'm not letting go, I'm not letting go
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh
    I'm not letting go, I'm not letting go Writer/s: Gareth Keane, Janee Bennett, Jermaine Jackson, Jessica Hannah Glynne, Krishane Murray, Lewis Shay Jankel, Patrick Junior Chukwuemka Okogwu
