Pasadena
Tinashe & Buddy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One, two, three, hey
Feelin' right, feelin' right, feelin' right
Livin' life, it's the life (hey, hey, hey)
Feelin' free, feelin' free, feelin' right
It's a vibe, feelin' right (hey, hey, hey)
And now I'm feelin' like I don't even know ya
I'm never leaving California
Now more than ever life is all what you make it
I got a vision of a perfect night
But every day I end up goin' through the motions
I wasn't build for the simple life
In Pasadena singin', "doo, doo-doo-doo-doo"
Feelin' right, feelin' right, feelin' right
Livin' life, it's the life (hey, hey, hey)
Feelin' free, feelin' free, feelin' right
It's a vibe, feelin' right (hey, hey, hey)
Up in the penthouse you see to the ocean
How did we get here? We don't even know (feelin' so free)
Hands in the wind, racin' out to the coast (feelin' so high)
Feelin' free, don't get better than this (ay, ay)
Closin' the curtain on the poolside cabana (smokin' on weed)
Mind my surroundin', get a room if you like (gettin' so high)
We got faded, then I flew to Miami (Miami)
I think I lost my Visa
Never been the type that wanna be right, I wanna live life (life, ooh)
Some say I'm psycho but this shit here go in cycles (cycles)
Tell all my rivals, "Save that drama for your momma" (ooh)
Smokin' ganja with my partners
Seen a bad one in the lobby, had to stop
She want sex so good it make a tear fall (tear fall, ooh-ooh)
prancin' around in that lil' leotard (in that lil' leotard)
When you're not around I go through withdrawals (withdrawals)
Withdrawals without drugs, don't matter, darling, I take it all, shit
Lately, I've been feelin' restless (restless)
I try my best just to ignore all the nonsense
If only I can manifest it (manifest)
My momma told me, "Life is yours for the takin'"
We've been workin' way too hard, gotta live a little more
Gotta put my family on, daddy don't need no more jobs
Oh, it's been a real good ride
In Pasadena talking shit since 'bout '02
Feelin' right, feelin' right, feelin' right
Livin' life, it's the life (hey, hey, hey)
Feelin' free, feelin' free, feelin' right
It's a vibe, feelin' right (hey, hey, hey)
Up in the penthouse you see to the ocean
How did we get here? We don't even know (feelin' so free)
Hands in the wind, racin' out to the coast (feelin' so high)
Feelin' free, don't get better than this (ay, ay)
Feelin' so free
Feelin' so high
Up in the penthouse you see to the ocean
How did we get here? We don't even know (feelin' so free)
Hands in the wind, racin' out to the coast (feelin' so high)
Feelin' free, don't get better than this

She writes, she sings, she dances, she is the Creative Director, she exudes talent, she goes hard, she is stunning
@joelsc9232
And she is all natural beauty!
@truevirgo8718
Yet the people won't acknowledge her
B/c she isn't, dare I say, beyonce...she should be a chart toppa
@MrTomstar101
She IS the moment
@anaysavelazquez8961
She a model too
@sorayavictoria2936
But she isn't charismatic like Beyonce or Rihanna. I think that's what she doesn't have success in music industry
@BaebyBear23
Its literally not fair Tinashe works this damn hard and is struggling to reach 1 million views. She is phenomenal I don't understand why more people don't like her!
@ANDY1985UK2011

@Fall614
@Andy G gth 😂🤣
@kweenjade01
Some ppl think she's overrated. I personally find a huge amount of her music a bit boring. But she does have soms songs I really like as well. She had a few viral bangers so I don't understand why everyone's so mad. Isn't she independent? What do y'all expect?
