Five Miles by Emi Wes Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yes, I’m still at my mother’s place
Yes, I’m still lookin’ for a space
No, I don’t have my own car yet
No, I don’t have a safety net
Yes, I’m still behind in this race
Yes, I’m still a charity case
I never been [?] babe
But I ain’t got nothin’ to regret so
[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t feel sorry, don’t feel worried
I figure this out as I go along, I learn every time that I get it wrong
So don’t be judgin', don’t be buggin'
I try to find the road where I belong
[Chorus]
I'm still fives miles below the right track
Getting that dirt off of my back
Still I [?] fives miles below the right track
Getting that dirt off of my back
[Verse 2]
Yes, I’m still in a fragile state
Yes, I’m still tryin’ to sit up straight
No, I don’t need you to give me capital
No, I don’t have a spirit animal
I’m still workin’ on my ideal weight
Yes, I’m still wakin’ up too late
I’ve never been the rational
But trust me, I’m a natural
[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t feel sorry, don’t feel worried
I figure this out as I go along, I learn every time that I get it wrong
So don’t be judgin', don’t be buggin'
I try to find the road where I belong
[Chorus]
I’m still fives miles below the right track
Getting that dirt off of my back
Still I [?] fives miles below the right track
Getting that dirt off of my back
[Chorus]
Fives miles below the right track
I’m still five miles below
Getting that dirt off of my back
Gotta get the dirt, get the dirt, get the dirt
Five miles below the right track
I’m still [?]
Getting that dirt off of my back
[Outro]
When it’s dark and too late to start
When it’s time and too soon to depart
Why do all my fears reappear?
Why does it feel like I’m always stuck in here?
Yes, I’m still at my mother’s place
Yes, I’m still lookin’ for a space
No, I don’t have my own car yet
No, I don’t have a safety net
Yes, I’m still behind in this race
Yes, I’m still a charity case
I never been [?] babe
But I ain’t got nothin’ to regret so
[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t feel sorry, don’t feel worried
I figure this out as I go along, I learn every time that I get it wrong
So don’t be judgin', don’t be buggin'
I try to find the road where I belong
[Chorus]
I'm still fives miles below the right track
Getting that dirt off of my back
Still I [?] fives miles below the right track
Getting that dirt off of my back
[Verse 2]
Yes, I’m still in a fragile state
Yes, I’m still tryin’ to sit up straight
No, I don’t need you to give me capital
No, I don’t have a spirit animal
I’m still workin’ on my ideal weight
Yes, I’m still wakin’ up too late
I’ve never been the rational
But trust me, I’m a natural
[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t feel sorry, don’t feel worried
I figure this out as I go along, I learn every time that I get it wrong
So don’t be judgin', don’t be buggin'
I try to find the road where I belong
[Chorus]
I’m still fives miles below the right track
Getting that dirt off of my back
Still I [?] fives miles below the right track
Getting that dirt off of my back
[Chorus]
Fives miles below the right track
I’m still five miles below
Getting that dirt off of my back
Gotta get the dirt, get the dirt, get the dirt
Five miles below the right track
I’m still [?]
Getting that dirt off of my back
[Outro]
When it’s dark and too late to start
When it’s time and too soon to depart
Why do all my fears reappear?
Why does it feel like I’m always stuck in here?
