Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It doesn't come that easy anyway
Every time I try, it never feels the way it did at the start
This one for my dawgs that see where I'm comin' from
And know why it's hard
[Verse 2]
I do it for you, no one can save me this evening
She does her all, but I've never been the easiest ride
She says it's okay, we know it's all right
So I said, picture it
[Verse 3]
I can see us in a house next year (You'll be) makin' your mind up
You can figure out what goes where (And stay)
Keepin' it real with me all the time, all the while, they can't touch me anyway
So I'll be holdin' it down with you every day
[Verse 4]
(Oh, yeah) Holdin' it down, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I'll be holdin' it down
Holdin' it down, yeah, oh
[Verse 5]
I'm so good at fallin' asleep, grateful for you wakin' me
If it weren't for you, I would've stayed here for weeks
And the bed is just upstairs, the only place I feel peace
There's nothing I forgot to do, nowhere that I'ma need to be
There's no one left for me to impress, how am I meant to know what's good
With nothing good on the screen?
It's been the same way for a while now and I'ma come clean
You know that I haven't been inspired since like I was 18
And the extra stress isn't necessary anyway
So the only thing that's worryin' is right in front of me in a line
And life is too short to be staying inside
But I didn't realize I ran from the light
[Verse 6]
And no one can save me, I'm bleeding
I do my best, but I rarely am a regular guy
At least I 3-6-4 more days to get it right
Take a seat, picture this
[Verse 7]
I can see us in a house next year, you'll be makin' your mind up
You can figure out what goes where
You'll be keepin' it real with me all the time
[Verse 8]
No distraction, no one's even tryna reach me
Well, not until they need something honestly
And the trouble is everybody needs something all the fucking time (Time)
Everybody needs something all the fuckin' time
Well, yeah
[Verse 9]
It doesn't happen like this every day
Every time I look at her, I feel the way I did at the start
She's holdin' me up, I'll never depart
All the emotions straight from the heart
She got me all in my feelings
I wouldn't know how to live life if it wasn't with her
I know what it's worth
