Get a grip!

V6-WILD

[Intro] Oh-oh Get a grip, get a grip Yeah [Verse 1] Hands shakin’ in the bathroom light Countin’ tiles just to make it through the night Everybody’s talkin’ like they wrote my life Tellin’ me to smile when it don’t feel right I been holdin’ on with a slippery fist One more “you should” and I might just slip Don’t need a lecture from a padded seat I can feel the floor movin’ under my feet [Pre-Chorus] I ain’t fallin’, I’m just feelin’ it If I look unsteady, I’m still in it Don’t you preach from the cheap seats I hear you talkin’, I just don’t believe it [Chorus] Get a grip! Get a grip! They keep yellin’ it like I don’t know Get a grip! Get a grip! Baby, I been holdin’ on since I was twelve years old If I let go for a second, it don’t mean I quit I got fire in my fingers Get a grip! [Verse 2] You want me quiet, folded, easy to keep Want the version of me that don’t lose no sleep But this heart don’t come with a volume knob When it hurts, it hurts, I don’t turn it off I laughed in the kitchen with a cracked-up grin Wiped my face and walked back in Call it messy, call it out of line This is me stayin’ upright one more time [Pre-Chorus] I ain’t fallin’, I’m just feelin’ it If I look unsteady, I’m still in it Don’t you preach from the cheap seats I hear you talkin’, I just don’t believe it [Chorus] Get a grip! Get a grip! They keep yellin’ it like I don’t know Get a grip! Get a grip! Baby, I been holdin’ on since I was twelve years old If I let go for a second, it don’t mean I quit I got fire in my fingers Get a grip! [Bridge] Maybe I don’t look pretty when I break Maybe I don’t bounce the way they like But I don’t need a halo just to stay I just need a second, then I’m fine So if you came to save me, save your breath I already saved myself to death [Final Chorus] Get a grip! Get a grip! Yeah, I hear you, I already know Get a grip! Get a grip! I been holdin’ on since I was twelve years old If I shake for a second, it don’t mean I quit I got fire in my fingers Get a grip! Get a grip! Get a grip! [Outro] Don’t you tell me twice I already got it Get a grip
