they say i m doing just fine

Michael Kiwanuka

Here am I in Music City
It s my time to sing
It s just this song it doesn t fit me
Now I m losing my mind
If only they told me I d be so lonely
How I long for a song just to set me free

Here am I in Music City
They say I m doing just fine
Well I m running on empty
I guess they ll leave me behind
When I m lost they ll forget me
Won t be coming to find me
My mother telling me who they think I should be
How I long for a song just to set me free

Here am I in Music City
They say I m doing just fine
Think I can make it now I m nearly through
Lord I just don t know what else to do
I m crying out for a life line
Hey you know I d give it to you
Trying so hard just to be true
Hey, I really need one more song come and set me free
No more leaving Music City
It s my battle to fight
So I ll stay here in Music City
I ll try with all of my might
Won t get the best of me
Just you wait and you ll see
I ll be singing my song
I ll be flying free

Here I am in Music City
And I m doing just fine
