Hold On Lyrics by H.E.R.

Back of My Mind

2020

[Intro]
Hey, yeah-yeah
Uh

[Verse 1]
Holding me
You ain't been holding on to me
I can't wait too long, I don't wanna keep
It's hard to sleep
Wanna be free
Wanna be free

[Pre-Chorus]
How do you get somewhere comfortable then leave?
Say something baby, something baby
Running to you, running from me
Don't wanna keep on
Don't wanna be so dependent on you
Dependent on me
Don't wanna keep on, no

[Chorus]
And if I hold on to you
I'm only hurting me, yeah
I know if I hold on to you
I'll never wanna leave
Leave (Oh-oh)
Go on and let me, go on set me free

[Verse 2]
Don't (Don't) take me for granted
No, evеry time that we get alonе
Deep in my bones, no
Stay for me, yeah-oh

[Pre-Chorus]
How do you get somewhere comfortable then leave?
Say something baby, something to me
Running to you, running from me
Don't wanna keep on
Don't wanna be so dependent on you
Dependent on me
Don't wanna be somewhere I don't know

[Chorus]
And if I hold on to you
I'm only hurting me, yeah-yeah
I know if I hold on to you
I'll never wanna leave, yeah-yeah

[Outro]
No-oh
Oh, no, leave
Oh, oh, yeah-yeah, leave
No, no, no
No, no, no, no
Oh, no, oh-oh
(Oh-oh)
(Oh-oh)
