Holding My Breath Lyrics by Renao

From the South - EP

2022

[Verse 1]
Guess I got to believe the words you say
If I proved you wrong, guess you called me out
Guess you'll call me out
Tried to be so polite I let my thoughts dry out
I can't believe you were right, I let the world just carve me out
Oh what a silly way to die
[Chorus]
And if I held my breath just long enough
Oh I can feel my mama's touch upon my skin
Oh I miss the way she healed
And if I held my breath just long enough
I would see a world where I fit in
I keep wishing it were real
[Verse 2]
So there's people that want me on their side
I think I'll leave them behind and buy my own way to hell
I don't care if it's real
It's the same old story on a different road
I got the same old faces in a different mode
I could use someone like me, around
[Chorus]
And if I held my breath just long enough
Oh I can feel my mama's touch upon my skin
Oh I miss the way she healed
And if I held my breath just long enough
I would see a world where I fit in
I keep wishing it were real
I keep wishing, I keep wishing
