Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I?ve been empty 

& I know who fills the cup 

Yeah, But my ego 

Fights back, telling me that 


I?m ready 

To grab the wheel & take control 

But I?ll crash 

If I don?t let myself 

Let go 


You put the X 

On my faded map 

Draw me a line 

Back to where you?re at 

Patient when I try to move to fast 

I get this feelin

I get this feelin 


I get this feeling in my spirit way down low 

I feel it callin? like a compass in my soul 

Saying child come on back now 

You?ve been gone too long 

Let me lead you back where you belong 

Right next to me 


I?ve been captive  

By the plans I try to make 

I?ve been selfish 

Callus hearts, they die hard 


Like habits 

That I know I gotta break 

Ain?t it good to know 

That help is on the way 


You put the X 

On my faded map 

Draw me a line 

Back to where you?re at 

Patient when I try to move to fast 

I get this feelin

I get this feelin 


Oh, oh, oh 

You know I tried 

To do it on my own 

Oh, oh, oh 

I think it?s time 

For me to come back home
