Janelle Monáe – Lettin Go lyrics

Verse One

Oooh! I got a call today, from my job up the block
It was my boss to say, you know we like you a lot
But we don't need you J, you daydream too much,
Well man I'm glad yall let me go!

Cause with no 9 to 5, its a brand new day!
My rents due but Imma party any way!
I feel so alive, stress just faded away!
Its time to live my own life!

Chorus

So, Imma let it go!!!!
Gonna leave my worries behind!
Gotta take control!
I just came to have a good time!
Imma let it go, no time for stress on my mind!
Imma lettin go!!!!! Oooh I'm lettin go!

Verse two

That's right, left right
I'm losing it to music, cameras, bright lights!
I'm staying out all night
Don't shove don't fight!
Well make a million memories -- all incredible!
Cause with no 9 to 5 its a brand new day!
Got bills due, but Imma party anyway
I feel so alive! Stress just faded away
Its time I live my own life!

Chorus

So, Imma let it go!!!!
Gonna leave my worries behind!
Gotta take control!
I just came to have a good time!
Imma let it go, no time for stress on my mind!
Imma lettin go!!!!! Oooh I'm lettin go!
