[Verse 1]
Honest mistake
I need to grow up, but what does it take?
I fu*k it all up and I fall on my face
I’ll make one more song and I’ll call it a day
You search for the feeling too
You stare at the ceiling too
Aight cool, well, I feel it too
Lately my sky’s been grey, but I need it blue
I feel myself changing, think I like these changes
I went through some phases, I outgrew these cages
Some of my friends are strangers
That was so heart breaking
I feel my heart breaking
So much isolation
To be fair, that is not cool
My heart’s in bits and I tried get it fixed with the wrong tool
Know that it’s on you
Family and money, yeah, it’s on you
The weight of the world, yeah, it’s on you

[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t like how I’m feeling today
Woke up still feeling a way
Can’t smoke this feeling away
I can’t shake this feeling
Lord, I need healing today
Lord, take these demons away
Hold me down
Lord, you keep leading the way
Hold me down, I just need some holding down
When there’s nobody around
When it falls into the ground

[Chorus]
Hold me down
Hold my shield and hold my crown

Hold my armour, hold my sword
When you see me breaking down
Hold me down, I just need some holding down
When there’s nobody around
When it falls into the ground
Hold me down
Hold my shield and hold my crown
Hold my armour, hold my sword
When you see me breaking down

[Verse 2]
I’m on the edge, I’m on the edge
I’m not ashamed to say I cried today
I didn’t have no pride today
Let it all out, let it all out, let it all out, let it all out
Some times I wonder how it all went so wrong
I wonder what they’ll say when I’m gone
Tired, but I’ll make one more song
Let it all out, let it all out, let it all out

[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t like how I’m feeling today
Woke up still feeling a way
Can’t smoke this feeling away
I can’t shake this feeling
Lord, I need healing today
Lord, take these demons away
Hold me down
Lord, you keep leading the way
Hold me down, I just need some holding down
When there’s nobody around
When it falls into the ground

[Chorus]
Hold me down
Hold my shield and hold my crown
Hold my armour, hold my sword
When you see me breaking down
Hold me down, I just need some holding down
When there’s nobody around
When it falls into the ground
Hold me down
Hold my shield and hold my crown
Hold my armour, hold my sword
When you see me breaking down

[Outro]
Wonder how it all went so wrong
I wonder what they’ll say when I’m gone
Tired, but I’ll make one more song
Let it all out, let it all out, let it all out
