There’s some shit you couldn’t fix with a song
You see me limping to the finish but I’m getting along
Cause people always had my back for me
And I could never pay it back on a track, sorry
I try to show it every day but it‘s confusing me
But I don’t want a see a future in this shit if it doesn’t involve you and me
I know it’s stupid, I’m dependent on y’all
But if I wasn’t then fuck it, I’d be content with the fall
But I grab on, to you I never, to you I never
But I grab on, to you I’d never fall
I grab on, and I’ma be holding this moment every day
Cause I grab on, and I grab on
But I grab on, to you I never, to you I never
But I grab on, to you I’d never fall
I ain’t never said I’m perfect, believe it
But this a process, I believe it’s worth it to be it
Cause in the end, I’m tryna do right by me
And right by us, the middle is a time I breathe
And see the beauty in the small shit
Doing all the wrong shit
With ya I don’t care cause you laugh at it
Losing breath, I’m an asthmatic
But the moments when I’m choking show perspective on my bad habits
Backpacking with these books in my bag
I couldn’t relax, sweating in my hoodie in class
I got a lot to learn yet, only get it with practice
Adrenaline jacking it’s time to fucking get it, get active and I
But I grab on, to you I never, to you I never
But I grab on, to you I’d never fall
I grab on, and I’ma be holding this moment every day
Cause I grab on, and I grab on
But I grab on, to you I never, to you I never
But I grab on, to you I’d never fall
Feeling like the city on my back
I hold it as I’m building on a track,
And I exhale, believe, then inhale twice
The next breath I breathe could end my life
So this is like the journey in between the first and last breath
Looking for a reason, but the reason doesn’t match yet
Last breath, take it in, last breath, make it count
I wasn’t happy then, why would I be faking now
This the real deal, nose aimed at the sky
Gotta pinch myself, it doesn’t feel real
And if it isn’t don’t tell me, I might slip
But I was never as confident as I write this
