All I Got ft. Alano Adan & Evan Ford
K. Agee Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll give you this dance
And I'll give you hope
I'll sing you a song
It's something I wrote
I'll trace you in ink
Connect all the dots
It's not much, but it's all that I got

I'll give you my heart
And some of my time
And if you do wrong
A piece of my mind
I'll give you some space
If that's what you want
It's not much but it's all that I got

Lettin' it all out,
Breakin' these walls down
Nowhere to hide now
It's not much but it's all that I got

If all I got is the love I was promised, I'm good (I'm good)
Even if it's all I got
If all I got is the touch of your body, I'm good (I'm good)
Even if it's all I got

Let's do it again
Don't want it to end
So baby just keep
Your hands on my skin
I love how it feels
To lay here and talk, uh!
It's not much, but it's all that I got

Lettin' it all out
Breakin' these walls down
Nowhere to hide now
It's not much, but it's all that I got

If all I got is the love I was promised, I'm good (I'm good)
Even if it's all I got
If all I got is the touch of your body, I'm good (I'm good)
Even if it's all I got

You're all I got
I wanna be solid as a rock, uh
I'm never gon' stop
Loving you outside the box
Oh ooh-oh!

(All I got) If all I got is the love I was promised, I'm good
Baby it's all good, no, even if it's all I got
If all I got is the touch of your body, I'm good (I'm good)
Even if it's all I got

If all I got is the love I was promised, I'm good (I'm good)
Even if it's all I got

If all I got is the touch of your body, I'm good (I'm good)
Even if it's all I got, all I got
