Lyrics

Obi's Interlude

[Chorus]

Safe, safe, safe, safe

Feel the sun and hold on your waist

Know the devil's got her holdin' away

But instead of running away, I'd rather the chase

[Verse 1]

Fate says to wait, to be honest, I would rather

Jump from a place if we comin' to a standstill

Pump on them brakes 'cause we're going any faster

Trust is a must ti'l we throw it in the trash

Say I do it for the moment, baby, no, no, no way

When it's all said and done, you'll thank me someday

I need more from you if these feelings gon' stay

I need more from you, to be honest, I just want you to feel

[Chorus]

Safe, safe, safe, safe

Feel the sun and hold on your waist

Know the devil's got her holdin' away (Oh-oh)

But instead of running away, I'd rather the chase

Yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]

I need more from you, tell me, what's it gon' take?

I need more from you, tell me, what's it gon'— (I need you)

Call me your audition and go to sing Broadway

Could be so simple, I just can't with your— (Attitude)

Early in the morning, I be calling your name

Pulling up on you in the heat of broad day

When it's all said and done, you'll thank me someday

When you're done guarding your heart, I just want you to feel

[Chorus]

Safe, safe, safe, safe

Feel the sun and hold on your waist

Know the devil's got her holdin' away (Oh-oh)

But instead of running away, I'd rather the chase

Yeah, yeah
