Verse 1
At night i often dream
Maybe cause this isn't the life i want to lead
Miss being teen, come home from school, mum made my tea
Dad built his life to provide everything for me
My nan said i was a handsome grandson
But i girlfriend i never really had one
At school i never really had fun
Hoping it would just be done and i could get gone
Teachers said i had potential if i applied my self
But its hard when you've no confidence and hate yourself
After my parents divorce you can probably tell
Didn't help the state my mental health
At the same time, trying to get by
Making friends at new school, wasn't that guy
The kid who would cry, so you ask why
Kind and shy, left me on the outside
Chorus
I'm still holding on
I Need to let go, let go
Need to let go, let go
Need to let go, let go
And I'm still holding on
I Need to let go, let go
Need to let go, let go
Need to let go, let go
Verse 2
But that wasn't me, an outcast as it seems
People seemed to like me, going through puberty
Getting chubby, feeling ugly, and male sports teams
Getting changed in front of guys, that were sort of mean
With the added pressure of getting good grades
The opportunities that lay in your way
Going to private school, where fees get paid
So you wanted to listen to everything your teachers say
But your not academic
Head felt like it would explode like a bad head ache
Dont want to look stupid, when you make a mistake
So you don't answer question to avoid the piss take
Though at home i got two of everything instead of wedding rings
Two playstations, two homes and two families
Thats not bragging 'cause i would have given anything
For things to go back to the way they were meant to be
Chorus
I'm still holding on
I Need to let go, let go
Need to let go, let go
Need to let go, let go
And I'm still holding on
I Need to let go, let go
Need to let go, let go
Need to let go, let go
Verse3
Now we never say i love you, but we know we still do
And we always will do, whatever we go through
And mum i miss you…
Doesn't fit in this song but oh well its true
See i never thought i would want to go back
Those were the worst times that I'd ever had
Now I'm glad things are no longer like that
But id still give anything for me to go back
These lines might be to personal, probably unreversable
Before you start hate wait until you've heard them all
Before it goes down hill so much that it's vertical
Honesty ma be brutal, I don't do it on purpose though
Like I miss my sis, yet tension has risen
Fix our relationship, something seems to be missing
Maybe it's I'm your older bro and you never seem to listen
And when i do something wrong i never seem to be forgiven
So forgive me
Chorus
I'm still holding on
I Need to let go, let go
Need to let go, let go
Need to let go, let go
And I'm still holding on
I Need to let go, let go
Need to let go, let go
Need to let go, let go
