Follow Lyrics

I don't know who you are
But I clocked you from afar
And the kids on the streets, said you're getting it from me

You think you can kick the sand in my eyes
But you should walk a little softer
I hear you coming from a mile away
And you don't have enough to offer
Don't waste your time, playing with my mind
Or you'll regret it
I write the rules, for shame on you
You won't forget it

You just Follow, follow, follow
But tomorrow, morrow, morrow
When you're hollow, hollow, hollow
You'll be sad and all alone
Sad and all alone
Follow, follow, follow
But tomorrow, morrow, morrow
When the thrill is all that hangs on
You'll be sad and all alone
Sad and all alone

You can try to disguise
But you know deep in your heart
They can see in your eyes
That you're vacant in your heart

You think you can kick the sand in my eyes
But you should walk a little softer
I hear you coming from a mile away
And you don't have enough to offer
Don't waste your time, playing with my mind
Or you'll regret it
I write the rules, for shame on you
You won't forget it

You just follow, follow, follow
But tomorrow, morrow, morrow
When you're hollow, hollow, hollow
You'll be sad and all alone
Sad and all alone
Follow, follow, follow
But tomorrow, morrow, morrow
When the thrill is all that hangs on
You'll be sad and all alone
Sad and all alone

Give it all or give it nothing
Give it love or give it up
Give it all or give it nothing
Give it love or give it up
Give it all or give it nothing
Give it love or give it up
Give it all or give it nothing
Give it love or give it up
Give it all or give it nothing
Give it love or give it up
Give it all or give it nothing
Give it love or give it up
Give it all or give it nothing
Give it love or give it up
Give it all or give it nothing
Give it love or give it up
Give it all or give it nothing
Give it love or give it up
Give it all or give it nothing
Give it love or give it up
Give it all or give it nothing
Give it love or give it up
Give it all or give it nothing
Give it love or give it up

This club-ready track finds Blige warning a love interest, "Don't waste your time, play with my mind or you'll regret it," lest they end up "sad and all alone." The song is one of two collaborations on The London Sessions between Mary J. Blige and the English electronic duo Disclosure. (They also worked together on the lead single "Right Now.") Disclosure first collaborated with Blige earlier in 2014 on a remix of their "F For You."

Blige had a lot in common musically with the Disclosure duo. "My whole reason for gravitating towards them was the fact that they had so much knowledge of the music that my generation grew up on," she told Radio.com . "The deep house - I was too young to go clubbing, but I used to hear it on the radio, and they captured it 100%."

"Their hip-hop history and their musical history is just like [shakes her head], 'You guys are too young. What are you, like aliens or something?,'" Blige added laughing. "It's just amazing."
