Lyrics
[Intro]
And I wanna survive, but I know
[Verse 1]
Sittin' on the floor, legs crossed in bows
Am I blind to gold, or would it even matter?
Maybe I could grow, know that I won't
Am I talking to myself now, or would it even—
[Verse 2]
I know you've seen this before, why would I fake it?
I still picture us in a Ghost down 95 quaking, I
Sitting on the floor (And I wanna survive, but I know)
Mining for a heart of gold (And I wanna survive, but I know the price, oh)
[Chorus]
I been searching for someone to love
Now we're folded and I can't get enough
I feel focused on lifting you up
Oh-oh, whoa
[PostChorus]
And I wanna survive, but I know the price
Yeah
[Verse 3]
And I'm better 'cause it—
Never need another lover
Hold me down, I'll hold you up
Hold me down, I'll never budge
Close the blinds, get undercover
Shit's so good, I'm dying from it
She's so good, I'm dying, now I'm crying
Ain't no need for lying
[Chorus]
I been searching for someone to love
Now we're folded and I can't get enough
I feel focused on lifting you up
Oh-oh, whoa
I been searching for someone to love
Now we're folded and I can't get enough
I feel focused on lifting you up
Oh-oh, whoa
