Intro

Yeah...

I think I been running for a minute now.

Funny how you get everything you wanted

And still don't feel like you got enough.

Verse 1

I got people in my phone I wouldn't call if I was dying

Got a couple people proud of me, a couple people lying

Mama said don't let the money make you different

But I swear I barely recognize the person I've been becoming

I been spending all this time just trying to get somewhere

Now I'm here and I don't even know what I'm doing here

Everybody wants a piece, nobody wants to know me

They love the way I look until they see what's underneath

I got good at disappearing when the room gets too crowded

I can hear a thousand voices, still don't know what they're saying

She said I changed, I said everybody does

But maybe I just got comfortable with never opening up

Pre-Chorus

And I know, I know

There's a part of me I never show

And I hope, I hope

I don't become somebody I don't know

Chorus

I'm somewhere in between

Everything I want and everything I need

Got a little bit of money, still can't buy no peace

And everybody's close, but nobody gets to me

I been living in a cloud

Tryna find a way to let it all come down

If I tell you that I'm good, don't believe me now

I just got too good at never making a sound

Verse 2

I remember having nothing, now there's nothing that I want

Funny how the things you dream about don't hit you when they come

I used to think that being loved would make me feel complete

Now I get uncomfortable when somebody gets too deep

I let her sleep beside me, but I never let her in

She knows the way I take my coffee, doesn't know where I've been

And that's the part that makes it worse, she never did me wrong

I just don't know how to stay when staying means I'm vulnerable

I got friends that I outgrew, got regrets I never mention

Got a list of conversations that I wish I would've finished

I keep telling myself there's still time to make it right

But tomorrow turns to months when you're avoiding your own life

Bridge – stripped back, almost whispered

What if I get everything

And still feel this way?

What if all these nights I lost

Were never worth the chase?

What if she was really there

And I was just afraid?

What if I keep looking back

And realize I pushed it all away?

Final Chorus – layered harmonies

I'm somewhere in between

Everything I want and everything I need

Got a little bit of money, still can't buy no peace

And everybody's close, but nobody gets to me

I been living in a cloud

Tryna find a way to let it all come down

If I tell you that I'm good, don't believe me now

I just got too good at never making a sound

Outro

Maybe I don't need another night out

Maybe I don't need another girl

Maybe I don't need another reason

To keep running from myself

I just need to feel something

That I don't have to lose tomorrow
