It's easy, ooh

One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out

Verse 1
Laid back in the cut, blunt and a brew
Man all over the world they're pumping our tunes
From where you'd rather be, say it's unfair then come here dude
'Cause each hour the sun's setting somewhere new
Get fly, f*ck a commute
At least for now 'cause real life can f*ck up your view
And real life, gon' be back all up in it soon
It ain't perfect, but all's said, what can you do
This is love and the truth
And I ain't waiting to see it on the tube
Stress darken mood, let a little sunlight through
Sometimes life's a mad dash, sometimes a cruise
But some day you find there ain't no time to lose
Stamps in the passport, man on the move
World in the palm of my hand, and parts on my shoes
Yea, you gotta pardon a dude
I'm just settling in to my groove, young world, check it out

One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
(And I can't wait to get away)
One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
(And I can't wait to get away)

Let the good times soar, happiness fly
The f*ck I care, never been gravity shy
Happy to land, all a part of the traveller's high
What goes around comes around, exactly right
The same time that we saying have a good night 
The sun gradually rising Up in African skies, damn, that'd be nice to check
Next time I guess, map out the flights
Some dreams are worth not checking tags for the price
And, for all life's riches, still some you can't buy
And you might not realise when living out of packed bags
And lunch is steamed rice at months at a time
But being young and out in the world, it doesn't come twice
Doesn't have to be done flash to be done right
For real, it just needs to be done, one flight
Is never just one flight when the travel bug bites
See this is for what it is, one world, one life, let's go

One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
(And I can't wait to get away)
One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
(And I can't wait to get away)

My old man from the wrong side of the road
Set sail for the other side of the globe
And that was something like thirty five years ago
And my mumma the same, it's in my veins, yeah inside of my flow
So, it shouldn't come as no surprise each time
The opportunities arose, I've been so excited to go
Getting lost, getting found, getting real, getting grown
Going broke, getting home, (huh) 
Live in the now, live from wherever this bag of bones roams
You never check it you never gon know, that's the truth
So we set the route, line 'em in a row
Spot by spot, hit 'em, missed flights, smashed phones
Flew the coup, f*ck keeping up with the Jones's
Whether with bros or gunning it alone
It's dark shades, checked luggage and runaway clothes
Coming out arrival gates to something unknown, let's go

One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
(And I can't wait to get away)
One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
One two, one two, one two, one two, one two
Check this out, check this out, check this out
(And I can't wait to get away)
