Danny Brown - Float On Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
Backwood of that good to the pain for the brain
A cup of lean for me to sleep see I be going through things
Music business got me stressed Xanax to maintain
Waking up on wrong sides got me writing in vain
Remember praying to get in there saying rap to my brothers
And now I got the whole world listening
Give your ear for a second a life changing decision
Every other minute thoughts run through my mind
About how bad I wanted this but I cannot waste time
So I'm trapped in the beat stuck on every line
Nothing else matters except my next rhyme
You can never understand all the pressure I'm against
Getting high thinking how to make it better than your last shit
Might have a mental breakdown
And no matter how it gets I hold on
Rolling up this dope to cope I float on
Nigga I float on
[Hook x4: Charli XCX]
I float on
Let's go
Hop up in the Chevy 4 door let's roll
[Verse 2:]
Remember back when mommy sent me for the Wonder Bread
And niggas jumped me stomped on my fucking head
It's like I learned right then you either sink or you swim
And to beat your enemy you gotta think like them
So I was up late breaking day with the gremlins
Music in my heart but my thoughts wouldn't listen
Hood outta bye bye cause rap shit was sci-fi
So I'm tormented with the things I seen with these eyes
Can't get a wink unless I'm leaning off of syrup
Dreaming of my past like a nightmare so I wake up
Staring at the ceiling with this feeling that won't go away
Until the verse is done wrote all day but them shits throwaway
So I'm breaking day sniffing Adderall writing
And not for the money for the life after dying
Pray I get old just to hear I been the future
Just to see my influence in this genre of music
And might make it to see somehow
If it wasn't for these pills here now
And no matter how it gets I hold on
Rolling up this dope to cope I float on
Nigga I float on
[Hook x4: Charli XCX]

[Verse 1]
Backwood of that good to the pain for the brain
A cup of lean for me to sleep, see I be going through thangs
Music business got me stressed Xanax to maintain
Waking up on wrong sides got me writing in vain
Vicodin to numb me up help me cope with the struggle
Remember praying to get in there saying rap to my brothers
And now I, got the whole world listening
Give your ear for a second a life changing decision
Every other minute thoughts run through my mind
'bout how bad I wanted this but I cannot waste time
So I'm trapped in the beat, stuck on every line
Nothing else matters, except my next rhyme
You can never understand all the pressure I'm against
Getting high thinking how to make it better than your last shit
[Bridge]
Might have a mental breakdown
If it wasn't for these pills here now
And no matter how it gets I hold on
Rolling up this dope to cope I float on, nigga I float on
[Hook: Charli XCX]
Let's go, hop up in the Chevy four-door
Let's roll (I float on)
[Verse 2]
Remember back when mommy sent me for the Wonder Bread
And niggas jumped me stomped on my fucking head
It's like I learned right then you either sink or you swim
And to beat your enemy, you gotta think like them

Music in my heart but my thoughts wouldn't listen

Quentin Elliott “pray i get old just to hear rap in the future” is the correct lyric but thank u
lol yeah, i just copied it from genius.com tho..
Does anyone know where I can find a instrumental for this song?
https://mp3-pn.com/song/46640390/Danny_Brown_-_Float_On_Instrumental/
One of my favorite songs. This track has a unique vibe to it. Charli and Danny make a real dope combination.
I want to hear mf doom over this so bad
High as fuck, this is lit
I need the instrumental
NotJesus I know!!!!
Adam Polanco i found it
oh shit?!?!? you got the link bro?
here man https://mp3-pn.com/song/46640390/Danny_Brown_-_Float_On_Instrumental/
i remember listening to his whole album but this in particular during my first year at uni, only coupl years ago but damn, this was refreshing to find again.
bruh im doing exactly that rn
chills everytime
Nice avatar bruh
float on vs 30
30 wins, but aye ODB was intended to be the album closer on Old right?
Am I the only one that really doesn't like 30 that much?
@Cat 54 prob not
Backwood of that good
float on...
Just found this track. I know I'm late but deeeaaam. Better late than never
+Tyler Thesuavematador betta late than neva homie... betta late than neva
Danny brown. Ty
Charli's voice on this is magical, what a beautiful song
BADBADNOTGOOD BABY
hop up in that chevy 4 door lets roll, I float on!!
This is his best song
NOSWEAT805 This the only Danny Brown song I come back to time and time again
Love Danny Brown!
Him and Charli are such a weird pairing on paper, but it fits. Heard this on acid and when her parts come in it literally felt like I was floating.
Sean Clark don't do too much acid, you might float away and never come back.
Charli has that effect, even when not on acid
shitttt ive been there , shrooms in and im acturelly floated
best song of the album
Shout out to my vices for allowing me to hold on.......barely.
I feel ya
keep on keeping :)
shout out to my hydros, oxys, aderalls, and triple cs.
@Ryan O. LOL why the triple cs tho....
edit: or use to potentiate with the dxm's
effect on opioids?
"If it wasnt for these pills here right now, and no matter how you get to hold on, rolling up this coke i float on...................float on."
its rolling up this dope to cope ;)
@paula mathieson haha thanks for the clarification, i was like, you can't smoke coke wtf. Thought maybe he was refering to crack, but i thought he just went to jail for selling crack but never did it. I get confused easily as you can tell lol.
No Newfriends You can smoke coke, its called freebasing. Mike Tyson emptied a cigarette out and stuffed it full of the stuff. He was with Steve-O, it was his stash.
Beat sounds like it's supposed to be a more relaxed cover of "No Snakes Alive" by King Geedorah.
*scrolls down comments*
... damn it... I'm not the first person to notice the similarity. That's cool tho.
@Tommy O. is that doom?
yeah, DOOM produced "No Snakes Alive".
+Tommy O. king geedorah is doom though
Nothing else matters except my next rhyme
-Danny Brown Float On
Danny Brown is wonderful. And I'm glad he's becoming popular.
Badbadnotgood..
"backwood of that good" is the actual lyric
@***** oh ok thought he was saying that was the lyric
@will johnson @latelydawnIII backwood is a type of rello
@Ryan O. im aware
Bumping this all through lake shore drive Chicago Il
Good work DBrown
Better be seeing danny brown at pitchfork bruh
Float on people
Could someone PLEASE make the instrumental to this????
hop up in that chevy 4 door, lets roll
this is so dope it feels the same way like hendrix's burning of the midnight lamp.
beautiful
best track of the album
the beat is built*
pretty sure the built is made from a slowed down sample from No Snakes Alive. If not they're incredibly similar
I listen to this song at least twice a day..Love this fucking song..
haha this is not a different danny brown. this is how he used to sound back in the day.
I NEED This Instrumental In My Life!!!
Burn a fatty to this one, ya'll
i love this album, but i do have to agree, i think XXX is a little more polished, despite the slightly less ambitious production
Is this Danny?! Wow it's different but I'm feelin it for sure
BAD BAD NOT GOOD
no probs its nice to have a grown up youtube arguement for once lol
i dont really think they are techno i just dont know what else to call them and fyi my musical ear is just fine....i was just expecting more of his old sound (ie The Hybrid & Detroit State Of Mind tapes) after hearing "Side A" and was dissapointed with most the electronic shyt, judging by the fact that the words "euro-EDM/Grime" (whatever that is) came out of your mouth tells me you enjoy electronic music while I like hip-hop so i can see why you like it more than me. agree to disagree.
Bought the album, gave it three listens now, It is probably the weaker between this and 30 (xxx), but its still an incredible album very well done and well produced, Float on, 25 bucks, and dip are the three best songs, Dope Song is a great pump up song for me for some reason. 4/5
wow so ope
"No Snakes Alive"... no idea if it's an actual sample, just very similar
which track
except 75% of the techno bs songs
King Geedorah
album is perfect
