about

(Chorus)

What if it goes wrong, goes wrong
So much is so wrong, so wrong
Why would we prolong, prolong
The fear of it, fear of it yeah
x2

(Verse)
What if everything I got gets taken from me
If I'm not enough will you save the receipt
Will I have my bucks by the end of the week
They side eye me
They watching me stalking me
Smile at me
But ain't got no love for me
Tired I think
I think I'm just tired I think
I judge all things
All things must be judging me

They don't love me
Like they say they do
Cuz I don't love me
All the ways I should
So disgusting
All the things I saw
Cut down trees
With the saw saw saw

(Chorus 2)
What will we hold on, hold on
When it gets stormed on, stormed on
Part with it so long, so long
Heal with it, heal with it yeah
x2

(Bridge)
[Hold on x3]

(Verse 2)
Starting to think that the pain a crook
Thief of joy, thief of pain and youth
I don't write right with the knife on my side
Would they bite bite would they bite on my style
When this taste bitter won't want this lifestyle
All this ain't sugar
It's grind it's grind time
What if
The fronting wins
No substance
Just substances yeah
What then
What if then
Could I give
Cuz I won't give in, naw

What if we, what if we [hold on] x4
