Don't Leave Songtext
von Jorja Smith

Listen
If you feel alone and you′ve got to run away from a place called home
Mama's always out and she don′t seem to know you
Love for the streets and the guys to make love to
Constant reminders you were a mistake
Bag packed and you're thinkin', "Do I wanna run away?"

Don′t leave, no, don′t run away
Don't leave, what will make you stay?
Don′t leave, no, don't run away
Don′t leave, can I make you stay?

Listen
If you feel insecure, used and abused, no trust anymore
'Cause I know that you′re waiting
Bag packed ready, there's no hesitation
Mom's with a client, so your presence is vacant
Get set, go to your own destination


12 years pretendin′ that you have it worked out
When everything you see is mediated, have doubt
The streets aren′t what you're taught in class
′Cause the school doesn't care anymore

You′ll be just another missing kid like before
And your friends weren't your real friends, they seem to ignore
All your struggles and signs that true friends would look for

You′ve been planning this climax for years
I'm gonna ruin it, so dry your tears
Turn right back around and face your fears
You belong in your home, you're not alone

Don′t leave, no, don′t run away
Don't leave, what will make you stay?
Don′t leave, no, don't run away
Don′t leave, can I make you stay?

Don't leave, no, don′t run away
Don't leave, can I make you stay?
Don't leave, no, don′t run away
Don′t leave, can I make you stay?
