about

Allow It is about the necessity of going with the flow in our lives. Sometimes we want something that isn't best for us. Or we may have to be patient, and allow growth to occur before we can have it.

lyrics

ALLOW IT


1st VERSE

If its meant for me then,
It ain't pretend
Won't leave me so
If you must go,
then go.
I'm not gone hold you here.
Not bout to stand and stare
watchin the door as it closed
Knowing I loved you most.
Yeah I may cry, cry my hardest
Knowing you're gone, now departed
But I'mma Allow it.
Baby I'mma Allow it.

CHORUS:

I'mma Allow this pain I feel (move, go on, move)
I'm not gon' say you shouldn't be here.
I'mma allow it to flow
only way that I'mma know.
I'mma allow you to walk away. (move, go on move)
I'm not gon' say you should stay
I'mma Allow you to go.
Only way that I'mma know. (Move out of my way)

2nd VERSE

Stop your clinging.
Exits are freedom ringing.
Good things may go.
Let them go.
A voice inside you hear
sayin, just be still
sayin, you must grow
(sayin) you must struggle.

So I'm gon' just do my part its
inspiration for this artist.
This gon' make me more equipt.
And for that I'm fortunate.


CHORUS:
I'mma Allow this pain I feel (move, go on, move)
I'm not gon' say you shouldn't be here.
I'mma allow it to flow
only way that I'mma know.
I'mma allow you to walk away. (move, go on move)
I'm not gon' say you should stay
I'mma Allow you to go.
Only way that I'mma know. (Move out of my way.)

Move, go on move.

ZAIMAH RAP VERSE:

Feels like a burden
inside of me
I'm about to snap like I need a lobotomy
I'm tryna tune into the very heart of me,
lost my momentum
when I lost a part of me.
So I dig deeper
reach my goal then Eureka
touch the soul of a Believer
more than gold, I'm a keeper.
Sayings of old tell us patience
Brings gifts to be told
So I'm waitin, I will.
And I'll be still like film on a reel
Momma said don't make mountains of molehills.
Got out my own way, then all Fitnah stopped.
It's out my hands?
Okay then I'll let it rock.
And roll.

Guarantee its gon get much better.
Guarantee you gon get that letter.
Guarantee you gon make good weather.

Guarantee you gon get that letter.
Guarantee you gon get much better.
Guarantee you gon make good weather.

I guarantee.
