    Lyrics:
    I backed my car into a cop car the other day.
    Well he just drove off, sometimes life's OK.
    I ran my mouth off a bit too much, oh what did I say?
    Well you just laughed it off, it was all OK.
    And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on OK.
    And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on anyway.
    Well, a fake Jamaican took every last dime with that scam.
    It was worth it just to learn some sleight of hand.
    Bad news comes, don't you worry even when it lands.
    Good news will work its way to all them plans.
    We both got fired on exactly the same day.
    Well we'll float on, good news is on the way.
    And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on OK.
    And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on.
    Alright already, we'll all float on.
    No don't you worry. We'll all float on.
    Alright, already. We'll all float on.
    Alright, don't worry. We'll all float on.
    And we'll all float on.
    Alright already, we'll all float on.
    Alright, don't worry even if things end up a bit too heavy.
    We'll all float on.
    Alright already, we'll all float on.
    Alright already, we'll all float on OK.
    Don't worry, we'll all float on.
    Even if things get heavy, we'll all float on.
    Alright already, we'll all float on alright.
    Don't you worry, we'll all float on.
    We'll all float on.

    This song is how an optimist feels when they mourn. This song brings back very strong feelings of pain and loss but also leaves room for hope that you will survive and thrive in the future. It is the best way to describe how it feels "when life gut punches you hard but you're still standing" to someone who hasn't experienced it. This is how I felt when I watched them bury my mother when I was a young teenager. This is how I felt when my 2 year old child needed open heart surgery. This is how I felt when I found out my wife and I will never have any more children. The pain this song conveys touches deeply my soul, and still leaves room for my unwaivering optimism.

    Whenever I feel like my life is falling apart I listen to this song. I know that the lyrics are a lie and not everything turns out to be okay in the end but it gives me a certain sense of help that I can't find in any other song. Some days I'm happy other days I'm having a mental breakdown. On the bad days I have a certain playlist that I use to calm myself down when I get home from school. This song has been on here since the beginning and honestly I think it's a blessing that this song exists. I know no ones Goanna read this but for the people that do. I hope you have a good day

      The song's not a lie though. It's not saying everything's going to be alright. It's stating we're all going to float on. Truth is we can continue going through this crap storm called life, or let every bad thing crush us. Grieve for what needs to be grieved for at your own pace, but don't let life pass you by while you do so.

    When I was younger, my father and mother were going through a divorce. They would keep this a secret between them and myself until they both decided they were ready to tell me. Before that day though, I would occasionally catch my father crying alone in his room with this song on from time to time. Being younger and all, I did not fully understand what was going on at the time and why he would be crying. I realized he was trying to find a reason to float on in those lonely nights. May we all float on okay.. :c

    Listening to this repeatedly while I'm living out of a van with my husband and dog. We have a full size air bed in the back, plenty of food hanging from the ceiling and underneath the floor, a storage unit nearby with supplies, and two camping chairs to sit beside the van with, along with a folding table to sit between us. We park by the rivers in the day and the dog has a blanket that we lay out with her food, water, toys, and treats on it. We attach her leash to the van, we sit our chairs and table out, and then we float on.
    We are floating on, and we will continue to float on. We'll all float on.

    I finally figured out the bass part and oh my gosh it is so much fun to play! I first listened to this song with my dad in the car and my dad started singing it. I've never heard him sing with such passion before and now that I know how to play it I'm going to play it for him for his birthday.

      TheNeemaV Hey fuck off. Go read my comment again. I didn't use the word sample or steal or first or anything like that. I simply made an observation that it sounded similar. Please don't jump to conclusions, thanks.

    • @TheNeemaV
      @TheNeemaV 8 років тому +7

      +Ben ummmm....that's why it's funny. You said, and I quote. "The tune from the beginning is like a slow version of the tune in the show goes on by lupe fiasco".
      It's funny because, that's literally (and obviously) what it is. Sampling means that the producer recorded the tune from the beginning and played it as a loop, building Lupe's track around it. He sped it up a bit because "the show goes on" is a much more high energy track.
      If it sounds similar you should check your hearing. Because it's not similar. IT IS IDENTICAL

    I have anxiety and i felt and still feel a little bit depressed and i feel like a disappointment to my parents and im used to being blamed for things all the time and i had suicidal thoughts, until i met my girlfriend who eventually told me all the things that made her depressed which were very similar to what i was depressed over and she told me she was suicidal but she said she was able to get through it all. I thought that if she can get through those things then so can i and im convinced i didnt meet her on accident, im glad she exists and is someone that makes me happy and i remind myself of that every day. This song describes this perfectly im glad it exists and is one of my favorites.

    This song just nakes tear up. I sang this on guitar hero with the crew of the Bounty Ship. They were playing the instruments. The ship went down in Super Storm Sandy right after they left long Island and headed down the east coast. My daughter was on that ship but I had picked her up and she was saying her farewells to her ship mates. She wasn't on it when it went down . A new sailor, Claudine Christensen and The Captain were lost at sea. The captain was never found. I used this song like a prayer while they were searching for the crew. Most made it back alive but it was only because the coast guard were like guardian angels flying into the storm to find them. Thank you to all our heroic people. God bless you.

Isaac Brock is a lyrical genius and the band members, as they come and go, are all amazing. Don't stop your Modest Mouse listening here. I can seriously give you all like 50 hits to check out.
