Holding On
G-eazy Ft. Halsey Lyrics

Hold on to me
Stay by my side and don't let go

Don't forget me
Remember our connection and don't let it fade away

Look at that We're holding all this back In the hopes you'll speak it first Hide your cards Don't let me in your heart It'll only make it worse Right
We're both holding back our true feelings, hoping the other will open up first, but we're causing more harm than good by doing so

How you 'bouta hold it back from me You got something to say, don't cap it Let it free Cause when you die you don't ever get the chance To make that move, to get on that advance like Say it let's just get it off your chest Don't you sugar coat it, give me all the rest I know holding all this back has got you stressed But I bet it's nothing I couldn't have guessed
Don't keep your thoughts and emotions hidden from me because life is too short to waste time with regrets. Speak your truth honestly and openly, even if it's difficult. I understand that holding back may be causing you stress, but I probably already have an idea of what you're feeling

Ooh Look at the way that I come clean Following suit for the home team Anything you should have told me Having you feeling so lonely
I'm being transparent with my feelings and showing my vulnerability. I'm trying to create a safe space for you to share what's been weighing on your mind. Holding back has made you feel isolated and alone

It'll only make it worse babe This is a closed case What was I thinking the first place Taking you right to the third base on the first date And you want love but it's too late Like a one way to a one way track And baby you know me, you know we won't last Isn't it sad that You calling me wanting to stay Begging and pleading just get out the way And get out my face I'm tired of looking at people who fake and people who think that Cory's been out of his element Don't be so arrogent Bitch you irrelevant I'm moving elegant Isn't this evident Why would you think that And I've been, I've been, I've been on my own shit And I just, I just, I just dipped my toes in
Our relationship is over and prolonging the inevitable by holding back our true feelings and desires will only make it worse. We jumped into physical intimacy too quickly and now you want something more, but it's too late for that. We're going in different directions and I'm tired of dealing with fake people. I'm confident in my own path and choices, and I don't need to justify them to anyone else.

But hold on to me Don't forget me no But you couldn't do it I got up and left you relationship ruined But I had to pack right now Gotta take my things You were really thinking 'bouta wedding ring Always in here fighting bout the same damn things Better blast my brain Gonna feel my pain Keep calling me up Might go insane Cause I can't really take it no more Woke me up with yelling when my feet hit the floor Talk about this later can you go close the door Don't want this no more It's over for sure babe I said that it's over for sure
Our relationship has reached its end and we couldn't make it work despite our efforts. I'm leaving you and taking my things with me. You were too focused on a future together, but we were constantly fighting and causing each other pain. I can't deal with your calls and yelling anymore, and I just want to move on. It's time to close this chapter and accept that it's truly over.

Look at that We're holding all this back In the hopes you'll speak it first Hide your cards Don't let me in your heart It'll only make it worse Right
We need to learn from our mistakes and not hold back our true feelings and thoughts in future relationships. Keeping things hidden will only cause more harm and misunderstanding, and it's important to be transparent with our partners.
