Sail Lyrics

[Chorus: Machine Gun Kelly, AWOLNATION]
(Sail) Up out of the ghetto
Away from the mornings where snow in that shovel
(Sail) Up out of this level
I'm tryna be number one, why would I settle?
(Sail) Gone to the new world
No Pinta, no Nina, no Santa Maria

(Sail) Still keep it hood with my peers, sippin' Carlos Rossi Sangria

[Verse 2: Machine Gun Kelly]
Uh, drank in my cup
Workin' my wrist, I be spankin' my slut
Juggle my nuts
Use your two hands while
I juggle these fucks
But that's zero, it's none
My hands busy holding middle fingers up
I don't do two things: that's love and that's trust
And I don't hate y'all, I'm just fuckin' with us
And that's word to Nipsey
My hustle's mean
, I can sell bats to Ken Griffey
I'm like Lionel Richie, my fans have me touring 'til 2050
This cycle is evil
This verse is for Tino
One time for my people

And fuck all these fakers
Can't wait 'til you back on your feet, the streets need you
[Chorus: Machine Gun Kelly, AWOLNATION]
(Sail) Up out of the ghetto
Away from the mornings where snow in that shovel
(Sail) Up out of this level
I'm tryna be number one, why would I settle?
(Sail) Gone to the new world
No Pinta, no Nina, no Santa Maria

(Sail) And still keep it hood with my peers, sippin' Carlos Rossi Sangria, Kells

[Outro: AWOLNATION]
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, oh
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, oh
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, oh
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, oh
La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, oh
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, oh
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, oh
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, oh
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la, oh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
