You Hold Me Back
Why do you do this?
You try to compare yourself and I
But I know something is amiss.
What goal are you trying to accomplish?
You hold me back.
You wonder why everyone is on my side.
It’s what you do that gives you bad karma.
You pull me away saying “She’s mine!”
I reluctantly go along for the ride.
You hold me back.
You say you have too much drama
And my involvement is dire
But you are the cause of all your trauma,
This volcano, and all the lava.
You hold me back.
You pulled me away from what I desire
After all that I have done for you.
My patience has tired.
You just cut the wrong wire.
YOU WILL NOT HOLD ME BACK!
