Kelsea Ballerini - Kelsea Ballerini Defines Wait Lyrics

You know, it's funny though, this album, I do wanna say
I never write anything for shock and awe
That's never my purpose as a, a songwriter
Everything that feels like a little edgy or using a curse word or whatever
It is, it is for the point of the song to, to get across
And I think a lot of artists will put certain things in songs
Just for the shock and awe and that, that is not what I did, um
It's because it's, that, that was the correct lyric to get the emotion across
But, um, "WAIT!" is, it's kind of me
Looking in the mirror and acknowledging
That I have this massive fear of, um, being left, so I leave
And that could be in any form in my life
Um, I'm very scared of something ending
Whether it's like a career thing or a friendship or a relationship
So if I see it start to go a little south, even if it's salvageable
I'll just jump ship to just save myself
Even though at the end of the day, I'm not saving myself
I'm robbing myself of something that could be beautiful, so
"WAIT!" is that moment of acknowledging that and being like
"Okay, I know I told you to leave, but can you turn around and come back now?
My bad"
