BACK

[Intro] So Let's pick up where we left off What's on your mind? Oh [Chorus] Something's holding me back Something's holding me back, back Something's holding me back, back Something's holding me back, back [Verse 1] Maybe it's all my new friends Maybe it's the ones that say they need me the most Maybe it's out of my hands And I don't stand a chance against the path that I chose [Chorus] Something's holding me back Something's holding me back, back Something's holding me back, back Something's holding me back, back [Verse 2] Is it the lil' brodie that asked for a loan? He been worried 'bout making it out on his own Or is it the cousin that ain't taking care? I learned helping him isn't quite helping him Is it the dope man that come to collect? Depending on me to keep on coming correct Or is it the best friend that don't really mind Sneaking in the excitement because his love is blind? Is it the women that see me a mile away? Close the gap hoping that maybe will fly away Is it the pressure to honor my family? Am I who I am because I feel like I have to be? [Pre-Chorus] Or is it me? Me and my addictive personality Wasted all my time defying gravity Now I'm stuck here Out of luck here Barely free [Chorus] Something's holding me back Something's holding me back, back Something's holding me back, back Something's holding me back, back [Verse 3] Is it the money I don't wanna spend? Bank account getting too thick and now I can't pretend like it Isn't way better than what I imagined Elevated again before I knew what happened Is it the bit of karma that I know is coming? The price I pay for going all or nothing Or is it the way I feel whenever I'm alone? Thinking 'bout where I'll be headed when I'm dead and gone [Pre-Chorus] Or is it me? Me and my addictive personality Wasted all my time defying gravity Now I'm stuck here Out of luck here Barely free [Chorus] Something's holding me back Something's holding me back, back Something's holding me back, back Something's holding me back, back
