Lyrics
[Chorus – mellow confidence, layered vocals]
March to the beat of your drum,
Don’t give a fuck ‘bout what you on.
I’m still going strong,
Life’s too short, gotta keep movin’ on.
Goin’ slow, takin’ my time,
Takin’ my strides,
Marchin’ to my own drum,
Everything’s all right.
[Verse 1 – chill spoken-sung, neo-soul phrasing]
Got incense burnin’, mood on flow,
Sun hit my skin, yeah, I’m in that glow.
Learned the hard way, gotta take it slow,
Ain’t no race, baby, just let it grow.
I don’t rush what’s meant for me,
Peace of mind, that’s luxury.
All that noise, don’t trouble me,
I’m tuned out, yeah, comfortably.
[Pre-Chorus – melodic lift before hook]
I used to chase what didn’t fit,
Now I vibe with every bit.
Found my rhythm, found my fix,
Now I’m movin’ with the mix.
[Chorus – repeat, add soft harmonies + background ad-libs]
March to the beat of your drum,
Don’t give a fuck ‘bout what you on.
I’m still going strong,
Life’s too short, gotta keep movin’ on.
Goin’ slow, takin’ my time,
Takin’ my strides,
Marchin’ to my own drum,
Everything’s all right
[Verse 2 ]
Mirror talk, yeah, I see me now,
Not who I was, but I’m proud somehow.
Steppin’ light in a sacred vow,
To love me loud, yeah, love me now.
[Final Chorus – full harmonies,]
