lyrics

These new lines on my face
spell out girl pick up your pace
if you want to stay true
to what your younger self would do
and this kink in my walk
makes me focus when I talk
if I can’t trust my feet
then it's my tongue I choose to keep

and I walk slow so I can read
let my head fall my hips lead
why’d you write the words so small
did you fool me, are they words at all?
or are you pulling down the veil
keeping grounded as you set my sail?
by the time I pull it off
all my innocence is lost
but oh I'm good, I think I’m good
will I be great, will I be great?
is it money I wanna make or is it sweet love
for his sake?

and this new parts I now need
to help me focus, help me feed
they are beyond my modest earnings
oh the girls they keep turning up the heat as if it's cold
but I'm hot, too hot to hold
I'll burn a hole right through the hull
when will I

Ever see the land
will I ever see the land?
oh water can't revive me
I need dirt in my hand
will I ever see the land
will I ever see the land?
oh the ground will give me something
I know that it can

See I have charm and I have sight
and I always try and do whats right
but I have faults you know it's true
especially when it comes to treating you well
I will work when all my thoughts are mine again
see I was sure at the start, turns out I tried to hard
but oh I'm good, I think I'm good
will I be great, will I be great
is it money I wanna make or is it sweet love.
for his sake?
