hold me homie

Lyrics

Verse 1
Livin in my tent
I was holdin it down
He was in and out
Never came around
I kept the fire up
I kept the plate full
You said you had a plan
But your words were too dull

I did it on my own
No hand, no guide
Sleepin on my pride
With a storm outside
Best friend on the line
Every time I break
He pulled right through
Never let me sink

Pre-Chorus
And when the truth came out
I felt that cold wind
One more lie from him
And my heart gave in
Then you held me close
Said, "I got you, babe"
That was the first real home
I ever made

Chorus
In my tent, in my tent
You held me down
In my tent, in my tent
You turned it around
Hold me homie, hold me close
(hold me, hold me)
Best thing I ever found
In my tent, in my tent
I’m happier now

Verse 2
He cheated in the dark
Thought I wouldn’t know
But the truth got loud
When the pieces showed
You were my best friend
Then you stayed the night
Soft touch, steady hands
Made the wrong feel right

Now you my homie lover friend
Say it like a vow
You my calm in the storm
You my here and now
Never felt this whole
Never felt this clean
You took the broken parts
And made a dream

Pre-Chorus
And I don’t look back
On what used to be
You gave me real love
And you gave it free
No more empty promises
No more heavy chain
You walked in my life
And you changed the rain

Chorus
In my tent, in my tent
You held me down
In my tent, in my tent
You turned it around
Hold me homie, hold me close
(hold me, hold me)
Best thing I ever found
In my tent, in my tent
I’m happier now

Bridge
I used to think
Love had to hurt
Had to leave a mark
Had to make me worse
But you came through
Like a steady light
And every scar I had
Started feelin right

Final Chorus
In my tent, in my tent
You held me down
In my tent, in my tent
You turned it around
Hold me homie, hold me close
(hold me, hold me)
Best thing I ever found
In my tent, in my tent
I’m happier now
