Held Captive
[Chorus]
Have you ever woken up with your mind held captive?
Have you ever woken up with your brain doin' backflips?
And you don't know where the problem lies
So, you just feel you're dyin' inside
And-and they know where to be found
So your head spins round, round, round
I don't wanna drown, drown, drown
Could you come around, 'round, 'round?
Ooh I need you-
I need you now!
I need you now!
More than ever


[Verse 1]
From where I sit y'all ain't moved yet
That's the mindset that I ain't cool with
Eyes on me
Cut the music
See that when I learn there ain't no use in losin'
I see your scars, see your bruises
If anything, use them they don't make you useless
Only breathe love, speak the movement
It's beautiful how it blooms right off your two lips
Thought we was fresh outta beautiful humans
Check the product that love produces
The moment you realize that you ain't a nuisance
In a blink of an eye, boy, that noose just loosens
Like-

[Bridge]
He said, "She said 'I want this'"
He said, "She said 'Well, I want that'"
He said, "She said 'This ain't a compromise. I dare you, boy, to keep your heart alive' "


[Chorus]
Have you ever woken up with your mind held captive?
Have you ever woken up with your brain doin' backflips?
And you don't know where the problem lies
So, you just feel you're dyin' inside
And-and they know where to be found
So your head spins round, round, round
I don't wanna drown, drown, drown
Could you come around, 'round, 'round?
Ooh I need you, now


[Verse 2]
Big fish, little fish I ain't see it
Most of y'all probably only here for a minute 'for you dip
If you are remember this
Hard to find a ruin in the mix (Yeah)
Easier to be one to find one
Always leave it better than you found it
My grandpa really told me that when I was young
I never spent a minute trynna doubt it
Look, let me bring it to you now
You're never gonna be perfect
Everybody is hurtin'
Everybody is searchin'
Everybody is worth it
Everybody a human
Go and take 'em to church
Then, let me get through the verses
I tried to look panic in the face
He always lookin' at me with a gaze
I just gotta hold onto my faith, yeah

[Outro]
For heaven's sake, how long do I gott apretend that I'm okay
For heaven's sake, how long do I gotta pretend thatt I'm okay
