lyrics

Hope, I just hope I can do this
I just hope we get through this
And make it out alright
I just want you to know
I didn’t really mean to lose it
All I really have is music
And a voice that’s mine

I’ll make some beautiful sounds
That will keep you around
Just long enough for us to leave this town
But turn around and never forget
Your looking at the city that raised you kid
I got money on my mind just not in my pocket
Not at this time it just left my wallet
I’m looking for the sweetness where is the chocolate
I’m looking for the flowers tell me where do they blossom
I was fucking born here, raised in Austin
Now the red river district is destroyed and forgotten
They really left me no further option
I’ma get up and do something I promise

Hope, I just hope I can do this
I just hope we get through this
And make it out alright

Let me out, let me out
I’ve been in this town for too long now
and I’m moving on now
It’s time for this kid to graduate
I’ve learned a lot of lessons from my mistakes
I’m making these songs, I’ma make them loud
I’m made by friends so I’ma make them proud
And if you're in the crowd then you’re helping out
I’m feeling your vibe if you’re moving around
I’m feeling this show and it’s where I belong
I’m feeling your heart as it beats along
To the music I make through love or hate
I just create cause I’m trying to relate

I’m already gone, yeah I’m already gone
I’ll see you in a year cause I know where I’m from
I’m already gone, so long so long
I’ll see you in a year when I come back home
I’m bending my knees and I’m turning my cheek
And I’m pouring my soul into a melody
I’m already gone, yeah I’m already gone
So long so long, I’ll see you when I’m home
