Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I don't know who's living in my body

'Cause I don't recognize a thing about it

That don't even matter, I'm just glad I got into the party

So I can feel your music in my body

[Verse 2]

'Cause you the only out of everybody

Who can deal with all my ways, I know I got some ways

But you control the flames

So I just wanna stay right here with you

[Verse 3]

It could be a room full of people, you steal my sight

Look at how the whole world is searching but I got mine

It's emotional, uncontrollable, all I think about is you

So if the tears wanna flood in my gates, let the water flow

[Verse 4]

Just let it fall out from my face

'Cause I never thought I'd ever hear me say

I just can't breathe without my baby

Ooh, you my baby

[Verse 5]

So come and kiss up on me

As we dance close

Come and kiss up on me slow

As we dance close

[Verse 6]

I don't even really care who knows it

Just keep me there, just keep me in the moment

Seen a lot of things but I never seen my spirit glowing

The way you do me got me out-of-body

[Verse 7]

'Cause you the only out of everybody

Who gon' go out of the way to show me all the ways

Come, control the flame

I just wanna stay right here with you

[Verse 8]

It could be a room full of people, you steal my sight

Look at how the whole world is searching but I got mine

It's emotional, uncontrollable, all I think about is you

So if the tears wanna flood in my gates, let the water flow

[Verse 9]

Just let it fall out from my face

I never thought I'd ever hear me say

I just can't breathe without my baby

Ooh, come here baby

[Verse 10]

So you can kiss up on me

As we dance close

Come and kiss up on me slow

As we dance close

[Verse 11]

So you can kiss up on me

As we dance close

Come and kiss up on me slow

As we dance

[Verse 12]

Just let it fall out, out from my face

I never thought I'd ever hear me say

I just can't breathe without my baby

Ooh, come here baby

[Verse 13]

So you can kiss up on me

As we dance close

Come and kiss up on me slow

As we dance close

[Verse 14]

As we dance close

Come and kiss up on me slow

As we dance close

[Verse 15]

I: Inner

I bring to you through words I sing

My flaws, my dreams and all from within

I am Ella Mai
