[Chorus]

Hold on it won't take long

Cause the steps get bigger, so go ahead and walk them all

Now listen to me close

You steal from me but you call it your own

You liar, you thief, go make your stand on your own two feet

So all now all now listen what your friends say

Go now go now going through with that way

I'm the one you want to believe

Bm7 Cadd9

But in your heart you can't see

[Chorus]
