I just sit here all by myself
While the rain outside is cutting
Through the porch light
Don't you call, for I lose my mind
Don't hold up for the weather
Because I do this all the time

So hold, baby, hold
Get me just one more mile
I'm so close, baby, close
I can feel it inside
As I hold in my soul
All the music pours out
It's just that life these days
Seems a mile away

I'm just tryna lose my mind
In the beats and rhymes and the rhythm
If this is hell, then let me be sinnin'
It can get cold outside when you're left out here alone
And I don't mind when the wind blows
If I feel it in my bones
And I just sit here all on my own
While the rain outside is cutting
Through the only chute I own
Screaming: I don't need nobody but me
Don't hold up for the weather
Because I do this all the time

Hold, baby, hold
Get me just one more mile
I'm so close, baby, close
I can feel it inside
As I hold in my soul
All the music pours out
It's just that life these days
Seems a mile away
