The Other Side
Innate And J. Def Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Call me
Tell me you're out
Force me into the doubt
It's been a little while
Since you last came around
Footsteps
Traces on the ground
Where I'm going
I won't be found
Though your life is changing
Don't let it get you down
Try to keep both feet
On the ground
If your chest opens wide
I'll be waiting on the other side




For the trust we keep in time
We won't have to walk the line
