Lyrics
Girls don't always sing about boys
What if I wanna talk about suffering?
In the earth
The ocean plastic happenings?
Would anybody listen at all
If I don't parade in a bra, only to get my point across
I don't always think about boys
But I hear love is the only thing worth fighting for
As well as loving the same sex
Sanitary kits for homelessness
Grenfell, mental health
For all
(mental health for all)
We'll go to school and then get married and start a family
And they'll go to school and then get married and start a family
The cycle continues,
When we don't question what we're into
We'll go to school and then get married and start a family
And they'll go to school and then get married and start a family
The cycle continues,
When we don't question what we're into
Girl's don't always sing about boys
Even though it's what sells and what's relatable
I mean, who doesn't wanna cry?
To a song about getting your heart broke
Cos she'll sing all the words that you never spoke
Or couldn't
I can't always think about boys
Cos I've been reading about:
Air pollution, sustainable fashion,
Learnt behaviours, why it all happens
So I guess, I'll raise the issues
With a nice beat behind me
Singing it sweet so you'll still buy me
As I rethink the norm like
We'll go to school and then get married and start a family
And they'll go to school and then get married and start a family
The cycle continues,
When we don't question what we're into
We'll go to school and then get married and start a family
And they'll go to school and then get married and start a family
The cycle continues,
When we don't question what we're into
"The cycle continues when we dont question what we're into" what a line
HOW THIS AINT GONE VIRAL IS A JOKE.
Just sharing the song - in COLORS performance - to listen to when drinking coffee...
The state of the world smh
Ego is giving me Erykah Badu vibes. Real British neo soul. 🖤 14.2.2020
Tell me about it
I swear the only thing missing is a beat change😀😊
God must be a Black Woman. Period 🌻👑😍
Blasphemy!
I remember first hearing this in an H&M store in Tuebingen, Germany in January 2020. Immediately Googled the lyrics that night. This song will always have a special place in my heart because I heard it while living my dream of visiting a foreign country (I'm from South Africa) 🙏🏼.
These stores play beautiful music I sometimes enter a store just because they playing good music
@xolisamfobo2934...eh I can just imagine your test in music, I'm sure it's another level if you know this song. I'm south African too, it's hard to find people who listens to songs like this here💯❤️
This is beautiful
Right??
Yes, yes it is.😊✌❤
Yes it is! It's a reflection of her inner self heard through music !!!
Absolute greatness. beautiful message, beautiful music, and a call for reflection. Aren't black women beautiful?
The most beautiful, the most copied, the most undefeated, the most underrated...
Most IMITATED never DUPLICATED
''The cycle continues when we dont question what we're in to'' #wow
Ella's music will be known worldwide soon.... we have a new queen of soul, with unmatched poetic skill through song
As an American I’m always looking for soul, R&B music from different countries. This is bomb! 🥰
Thank you for your message, I’m listening. We need to observe our patterns, our thoughts objectively to change for the better and truly know thy self
That chorus makes me feel like I can fly
I remember when Honey For Wounds first came out in 2020…….and that’s when I got my first apartment 😌. I got to ask her questions about this album …..EVERY SINGLE SONG was a hit! I could actually relax and fall asleep to this album ❤
Reminds me of Erika Badoo. I love it.

This brought up so much positive emotion in me. Thank you for breaking standards for artists everywhere
One the best coming out of the UK along with Ojerime 🙌🏾
Ego is such a conversation. This road trip music, I am not saying that into bad way. One song is some mush to think about. She really said some much in three mins. I can go on and on. This is simple raw and gorgeous
What a song ❤️🔥
We need more neo soul 🖤
Yo I've been addicted to this song since I heard it on a Raphael Mix.
What a powerfully perfectly executed song 🎵

Relevant Music from a Rare Queen, Thank you!
This is by far the most beautiful Art I have seen in a while..Only love for this queen..
This is the most unique cut lyrically have heard in a bit. This is akin to early Toni Tony Tone or Badu. And the track's moodiness is a perfect companion for this Sister's ideas. LOVE IT.

All the time in the world for this! #NothingMoreNothingLess
