Holding me back

Lyrics

(Verse 1)
I’m 18, he’s 20, and we’re figuring it out,
He’s got a say in the people I keep around.
Sometimes I’m blind, don’t see the signs,
Friends who were bad, kept crossing the lines.
I’d tell him the stories, he’d listen real close,
Pointing out things I’d never notice the most.

(Pre-Chorus)
He’s not trying to control, not holding me back,
Just giving me advice when I’m off the track.
It’s not about “don’t hang out, don’t go there,”
It’s about love, it’s about care.

(Chorus)
He’s got my back when I’m lost in the dark,
He’s got the wisdom, he’s got the spark.
I trust him with my heart, he’s my guide,
We walk this road together, side by side.

(Verse 2)
He helped me up when I fell down,
When fake friends left, he stuck around.
It’s not about control, it’s not about rules,
It’s about loving, it’s about truth.
I do the same, keep an eye on his friends,
Our partnership’s strong, we’re not playing pretend.

(Pre-Chorus)
It’s not “you can’t hang out, you can’t go there,”
It’s about love, it’s about care.
It’s about seeing things that we might miss,
It’s about trust, it’s about this.

(Chorus)
He’s got my back when I’m lost in the dark,
He’s got the wisdom, he’s got the spark.
I trust him with my heart, he’s my guide,
We walk this road together, side by side.

(Bridge)
We’re young, but we’re learning what it means to be true,
Doing things we wouldn’t normally do.
In love, in life, we commit to the part,
It’s a partnership, it’s a work of art.

(Chorus)
He’s got my back when I’m lost in the dark,
He’s got the wisdom, he’s got the spark.
I trust him with my heart, he’s my guide,
We walk this road together, side by side.

(Outro)
It’s not about control, it’s about knowing,
It’s about the love that keeps on growing.
He’s got my back, and I’ve got his too,
In this journey together, we make it through.
