Hands (Pool Cosby Remix)

[Intro]
All the splinters in my hands
Trying to look over your fence
You were swimming in the above ground pool
Sneaking a smoke, trying to act real cool
Living on allowance in your street [?]
Momma's in the passenger seat with her hand on your dad’s knee, driving you to swim meet
Now I got my fingers crossed so hard I'm losing feeling in my hands

[Verse]
Hold me
Patting my back, say "I'm doing fine"
Lacing their fingers in between mine
Hands, hold me
Wiping my tears saying it’s alright
Holding me close, what a beautiful sight

[Bridge]
I got posters in my room
Of other people's lives
A family with [?] smiles, a scene in a park with a mother and child
'Cause someone once told me art imitates life
So I'm sitting with my eyes closed tight while they fight
Hoping when I open everything is alright
Now I got my fingers crossed so hard
Someday I'm gonna feel their hands

[Verse]
Hold me
Patting my back like I'm doing fine
Lacing their fingers in between mine
Hands, hold me
Wiping my tears saying "it's alright"
Holding me close, what a beautiful sight
Hands, hold me
Brushing my hair when I start to cry
Life isn't fair and I wish I knew why
Hands, hold me
Lifting my chin, saying "don’t be sad"
Things aren’t always perfect with a mom and dad
Things aren't always perfect with a mom and dad
