Lyrics
What do I do if I’m 22 and I don’t know who I am?
Was given my name, religion to claim before I could even stand
You grow and you grow, you do as you’re told, and then you get thrown to the wolves
So what do I do? ‘Cause I’m 22 and I don’t know who I am
I don’t know who I am
But I got a soul moving inside of me
Deep in these bones I got a melody
I know one day I’mma wake up, not a chain or a weight just
This soul moving inside of me
Holding onto hope
Holding onto hope
Are we divine born with a light stuck in a foreign land?
Are we just dust circling the sun with way too much time on our hands?
The more that I grow the less that I know, yeah I’ll never understand
Why I got a soul moving inside of me
Deep in these bones I got a melody
I know one day I’mma wake up, not a chain or a weight just
This soul moving inside of me
Holding onto hope
Holding onto hope
And the more I try to
Pull myself up higher
I lose my true nature
And I can’t deny it
No I cannot fight it
I’m no longer a stranger
To the face of my soul moving inside of me
Deep in these bones I got a melody
I know one day I’mma wake up, not a chain or a weight just
This soul moving inside of me
Holding onto hope
Holding onto hope
