AllttA - Disarm {fg. VI} lyrics

[Intro] (When you’re holding me) (When you’re holding me) (When you’re holding me) (When you’re holding me) [Verse 1] Yeah, whoever told you love is simple is a liar Whoever told you peace is easy don’t admire I wanna hold you but I can’t control the fire They’ll find us burning, ain’t no putting out that light, yea Desire turn to thee Sire, turns into a quiet old man full of white hair Thought we had it all planned out in the high chair But even then everything was a flight, yeah Peas and carrots, what we inherit I see the merit in displeasing parents No need to sugar coat it I see the need for being married But who would condone it? When your dreams are being buried And it seems you’ve been disowned I say, “Hold on to that little piece of you that’s still upon you” Blink twice and where’s it gone to Think twice but what it gone do? If this the type of life you prone to Just let it own you, I’m saying [Chorus] In our youth, who are we? Can I hold you close without losing me? In our youth, who are we? Can I hold you close without losing me? [Verse 2] So how am I gonna hold you when this love is so disarming? Thought I was so lucky ’cause you told me I was charming What? Nobody told you making money is a problem? For a rapper, ain’t that funny how it’s always so alarming? Same with actors, same with authors All the same, just blame the artist Heart of martyr’d poets pardon I’m an odd man always starving for attention Tens of thousands could’ve mentioned I am worthy But I’m thirsty, not an ounce of you could quench it I’m defenseless, I’m always swinging for the fences Yeah, I’m always swinging for the fences I’m always swinging for the fences, I’m always swinging Tryna hold on to this feeling while believing in this journey It won’t hurt me more than needed, it won’t heal me in a hurry I just wanna call it even, but you’re leaving me defenseless I’m always swinging [Pre-Chorus] In our youth, who are we? Can I hold you close without losing me? (When you’re holding me) (When you’re holding me) [Chorus] In our youth, who are we? Can I hold you close without losing me? In our youth, who are we? Can I hold you close without losing me?
