Tori Kelly – Kid I Used To Know

Tori Kelly brings to us a lifting spirit song as this one is titled “Kid I Used To Know” off her new album “Inspired by True Events“.

“I wanted to end the album with a feeling of hope: It’s always darkest before the dawn. I had a few lines in my phone—‘What’s a rose without a thorn’—and we all thought, why not write a list of these visuals that are in the same lane of ‘you can’t have one thing without the other’? After the song was done, we all said that this was one of the best songs we had ever been a part of. I don’t think I could’ve followed this song up with anything.” – Tori

Lyrics of Kid I Used To Know by Tori Kelly

[Intro]
Mmm, yeah

[Verse 1]
Lost in this desert, feels like a thousand years
Looking for water, swear there was an ocean here (Mmm)

[Pre-Chorus]
How do I get back where I came from
When everything has all changed so much?
Feeling the pressure now
It’s tying my heart down
I’m missing the empty skies of my youth
Never a cloud on the ever bright blues
Just want that peace again, but the chaos is closing in

[Chorus]
I know that I can’t ever go back to the world when life was only
Playing, dreaming, dancing on my own
I keep trying to find that fearless heart that’s running wild with
Nothing weighing heavy on my soul
Looking for the kid I used to know

[Verse 2]
All of these voices, it’s hard to tune them out (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I should accept it, it ain’t so simple now (No, no, yeah)

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I wanna say whatever I want
Not even think about falling in love
Chasing the rainbows
And where did the time go?

[Chorus]
Yeah, I know that I can’t ever go back to the world when life was only
Playing, dreaming, dancing on my own
I keep trying to find that fearless heart that’s running wild with
Nothing weighing heavy on my soul
Looking for the kid I used to know
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Yeah
The kid I used to know
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Yeah

[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, back when I learned to fly
And went outside the lines
Oh-oh

[Chorus]
No, I can’t ever go back to the world when life was only
Playing, dreaming, dancing on my own
I keep trying to find that fearless heart that’s running wild
With nothing weighing heavy on my soul
Looking for the kid I used to know

[Outro]
I used to know
The kid I used to know
