[Verse 1]
Suddenly I'm reimagined
Peeling off what I become
Everything is just so tragic
Maybe only when I'm involved
[Pre-Chorus]
Losin' sight of my purpose
Hopin' I can reach the surface
Gravity is such a burden
[Chorus]
I don't wanna lose momentum
I'm ridin' like I'm on the brake (On the brake, on the brake)
I don't wanna be too obvious
But I have a lot I wanna say (Wanna say, wanna say, wanna say)
I'm alone, but I know that I'll grow
When I keep on puttin' on the pressure to change
I know it sounds easy, but I'm the only one that's in the way (In the way, in the way, in the way)
[Verse 2]
Deficit of my conscience
Playin' hopscotch like thе old me, so holy
I've tried it out, flyin' solo (Solo)
Clеanin' my cuts with dirty soap
[Pre-Chorus]
Losin' sight of my purpose
Hopin' I can reach the surface
Gravity is such a burden
[Chorus]
I don't wanna lose momentum
I'm ridin' like I'm on the brake (On the brake, on the brake)
I don't wanna be too obvious
But I have a lot I wanna say (Wanna say, wanna say, wanna say)
I'm alone, but I know that I'll grow
When I keep on puttin' on the pressure to change
I know it sounds easy, but I'm the only one that's in the way (In the way, in the way, in the way)
[Bridge]
Losin' sight of my purpose
Hopin' I can reach the surface
Gravity is such a burden
You told me my life is worth it
Losing sight of my purpose
Hopin' I can reach the surface
Gravity is such a burden
[Chorus]
I don't wanna lose momentum
I'm ridin' like I'm on the brake (On the brake, on the brake)
I don't wanna be too obvious
But I have a lot I wanna say (Wanna say, wanna say, wanna say)
I'm alone, but I know that I'll grow
When I keep on puttin' on the pressure to change
I know it sounds easy, but I'm the only one that's in the way (In the way, in the way, in the way)
I know it sounds easy, but I'm the only one that's in the way, yeah (In the way, in the way, in the way)
I know it sounds easy, but I'm the only one that's in the way

“Momentum” was written at a time when I was feeling stuck. Nothing was moving professionally, and I felt like I was just writing the same songs over and over. I was in a rather negative mindset the week I penned these lyrics. I remember I was considering stepping back from doing music and feeling li...
