"Currency" lyrics

"Currency"

One foot in
You've been dancing by yourself again
Always looking for a trap door
A way around the feelings you hide
Think you're savin everyone else
But baby you're just robbin 'yourself
When you're vulnerable it's beautiful gold
Can we rewrite the story somebody sold you?

Your currency will fill you up
You got the goods to back it up
Why you gotta leave us wanting more?
Baby what are you saving all that money for?
Want the world to see, let them see your currency

You wonder why that shit don't fly with me, no
I talked through everything
You shift your energy
And I can feel your retreat
We're both losing sleep
But when you're vulnerable
It's worth more than gold
Can we rewrite the story somebody sold you

Baby there's a value in the way that you're walkin' this earth
No need to be ashamed of the days when you know that it hurts
It might feel good to breathe
Learnin' it's good to be

Your currency will fill you up
You got the goods to back it up
Why you gotta leave us wanting more?
Baby what are you saving all that money for?
The world will see, let em see your currency
