He Won’t Hold You

Lyrics

[Intro: Jacob Collier] He won't hold you Like I do, no He won't bring out The love in you [Verse 1: Jacob Collier] (He won't hold you) I've been feeling down and out lately (Like I do) Baby, since you left me (He won't hold you) It's been so long since your body held me (Like I do) Won't you come and save me? (He won't hold you) I never was misunderstood, baby (Like I do) Since the day you met me (He won't hold you) Now I'm lost, I'm on my own, I feel so lonely (Like I do) Won't you resurrect me? [Chorus: Jacob Collier] (He won't hold you) And all across from all around The people make a people sound They dance along the avenue Of what I thought I knew (He won't hold you) And all across from all around The people make a people sound (He won't) They dance along the avenue Of what I am to you [Post-Chorus: Jacob Collier] I won't be alright I won't be alright I won't be alright And I won't be alright (Say it again) [Verse 2: Rapsody] Things rearrange, we miss what is not the same I learned the value of what we had, taught by pain Caught the rain, used it to wash my wounds Learned the other side's grass wasn't as green I bloomed, I grew Took separation to get closer to you You didn't let go and I held on too Your arms were my armor Karma cut us loose You learned value, I learned truth No one holds me down the way you do But your feelings I let spill over and over and over Just to cover for insecurities I couldn't show to Him I had to face myself, my fears, my fails Now I know there's nothing I can't do I dance in the rain knowin' I can swim too Found liberation, found my freedom Where it begins is without you I understand now My only one, without you [Chorus: Jacob Collier] (He won't hold you) And all across from all around The people make a people sound They dance along the avenue Of what I thought I knew (He won't hold you) And all across from all around (Across from all around) The people make a people sound (The people sound) They dance along the avenue (The avenue) Of what I am to you [Post-Chorus: Jacob Collier] I won't be alright I won't be alright I won't be alright (Be alright) And I won't be alright [Outro: Jacob Collier] Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm Hmm, hmm, hmm Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm Hmm, hmm, hmm
