Don't Say No
Maddisun Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I been trying to get it out
I been saying what's on my mind
But you fake it every time
This worlds gotta let me out
I'm sick of all the doubts
Been manifesting all of it
Still low not getting picked
Oh whoa oh oh
Don't say no
Take a chance take a chance on me
Show me the ropes that I already know
And let me breath
Don't say no
Let me be all I can be
And hold me up for all to see
Don't say no
I keep trying to figure out
What keeps me from going down
All the roads I wanna cross
Can't help but feel lost
You keep trying to bring me down
Keep knocking off my crown
But you can't take it away from me
I'm gonna make you see
Oh cause inside my mind I'm bigger than life
Oh whoa oh oh
Don't say no
Take a chance take a chance on me
Show me the ropes that I already know
And let me breath
Don't say no
Let me be all I can be
And hold me up for all to see
Don't say no
Dont Say no
Don't say no
