KELIS LYRICS - Acapella

"Acapella"



I was walking, was living

My melody was acapella

There's a beat I was missing

No tune, or a scale, I could play



The sound in the distance

No orchestra playing together

Like a boat out to sea,

The silence was too deafening



So come and revive me

I can't feel my heartbeat

Just me surviving alone



[Chorus]

Before you,

My whole life was acapella

Now a symphony's

The only song to sing

Before you,

My whole life was acapella

Now a symphony's

The only song to sing



Everything was the same

One color was just like the others

An assembly routine

My memories were all black and white

Till I stopped overthinking

Decided to draw back the curtains

And I cleared all the cobwebs

And began to let in the light



So come and revive me

I can't feel my heartbeat

Just me surviving alone



[Chorus]

Before you,

My whole life was acapella

Now a symphony's

The only song to sing

Before you,

My whole life was acapella

Now a symphony's

The only song to sing



[Bridge - 3X]

You are the drum in my heart beat

Bass and guitar lead

Stuck on the notes you play

My heart that you play on

Red like a crayon

I can't walk away



[Chorus - 2X]

Before you,

My whole life was acapella

Now a symphony's

The only song to sing

Before you,

My whole life was acapella

Now a symphony's

The only song to sing
