"Center Of Me" lyrics - NATHANIEL RATELIFF

It's the center of me but I still don't see
Feel it moving around
Can I admit defeat or disbelief?
Does it have to be now?

[Chorus:]
Hey wait, why do I wait until this shit gets harder?
Hey wait, my words are arriving now
So I wait, I wait until the shit gets harder
Alone in my head

Is it all I had? Is it all that's left?
I'm starting out empty again
I cradled my arms, rocked myself to sleep
Be ten more years 'til I say what need
Stuck in my mouth when I try to speak
And nothing comes out

[Chorus:]
Hey wait, why do I wait until this shit gets harder?
Hey wait, my words are arriving now
So I wait, I wait until the shit gets harder
Alone in my head

[Post-Chorus:]
Said maybe I don't wanna sleep too long
Someone wake me, I don't wanna sleep too long
I'm just gonna close my eyes and try to play it cool

[Bridge:]
I'm tired of waitin'
I'm tired of waitin' on myself
I'm tired of waitin'
I'm tired of waitin' on myself
Why do I wait until the shit gets harder?
I'm tired of waitin'
I'm tired of waitin' on myself
Why do I wait until the shit gets harder?
I'm tired of waitin'
I'm tired of waitin' on myself

[Outro:]
It's the center of me but I still don't see
But it's moving around
