[Intro]
Open up your eyes, let the sunlight seep in
I'm waking up inside, let the air clean out the [?]
Can it hold me over until I'm strong enough?
Can I bet my life on you coming through?

[Verse 1]
What you runnin' away from?
Tell me what's far behind
Tell me that you wanted to say something that's left behind
I don't really know where you came from
I don't really know where you been
Tell me that you wanted to go somewhere and leave this life

[Pre-Chorus]
Behind the housе where you werе raised
The same streets that we paved
I wanna tell you so much
But I'm just afraid of me

[Chorus]
I throw my hands up in the air
Let my mind just drift away
I throw my hands up in despair
Oh, might drift away
I throw my hands up in the air
Let my mind just drift away
I throw my hands up in despair
Oh, might drift away

[Bridge]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

[Chorus]
I throw my hands up in the air
Let my mind just drift away
I throw my hands up in despair
Oh, might drift away

I throw my hands up in the air
Let my mind just drift away
I throw my hands up in despair
Oh, might drift away
