The song Keeper by GIVĒON talks about the messy honesty of love, where emotional vulnerability, regret, and longing collide in a deeply soulful way. GIVĒON brings us inside the inner battle of a man who’s not perfect but still wants to be someone worth holding on to. The song’s mood is melancholic and vulnerable, with that hazy 2 a.m. honesty we all feel when we’re sitting alone, thinking about someone we love—or maybe lost.
Whether you’re here for the vibe or curious about what GIVĒON is bringing to the table, this track won’t disappoint. Its irresistible music and unforgettable, mind-blowing lyrics make it impossible not to sing along.
Lyrics of KEEPER by GIVĒON
[Verse 1]
Talkin’ Through Your Mom Again
Put This Pride Aside Again
I Don’t Even Know What Time It Is
Is It Even Worth A Try? Tell Me, And I
Couple Things I Can’t Defend
I’m Just Tryna Clean My Hands Of All That I’ve Done
Goin’ Green Every Time I Sin, Don’t It
This Type Of Night, I Need You Right Here
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s Gettin’ Hard For Me To Say
The Thoughts Of Me In Your Apartment Lingers
Gettin’ Harder To Replace You
Can’t Forget The Way That I Remember
Ooh, The Way Your Lips
Reminiscin’ About Their Tenderness
When My Days Turn To Night
I Get To Missin’ You, Oh
[Chorus]
I’m Tellin’ You, Baby
I Can’t Be What I’m Not, But You Gon’ Be The One To Chase Me
I’m Know That I’m Enough But I’m Just Tryna Be The One That You Keep
Not Just The One Who Comes Back Around And Drives You Crazy
I Swear, Back Around Again
[Break]
(Woo-woo-woo-woo) Oh, Oh
[Verse 2]
Most Night Have Truth In It, Break Curfew Like A Kid
I Dry My Fingertips, Every Time I Lift Your Chin
No, I Ain’t Trying To Defend Myself, All The Times I Was A Man, Ooh
The Cryin’ Breaks The Wind, Ooh, And This The Night I Need You Here
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s Gettin’ Hard For Me To Say (Hard For Me To Say)
The Thoughts Of Me In Your Apartment Lingers
Gettin’ Harder To Replace You
Can’t Forget The Way That I Remember
Ooh, The Way Your Lips
Reminiscin’ About Their Tenderness
When My Days Turn To Night
I Get To Missin’ You, Oh
[Chorus]
I’m Tellin’ You, Baby
I Can’t Be What I’m Not, But You Gon’ Be The One To Chase Me
I’m Know That I’m Enough But I’m Just Tryna Be The One That You Keep
Not Just The One Who Comes Back Around And Drives You Crazy
I Swear, Back Around Again
[Outro]
(Back Around, Back Around, Back Around) Oh
(Back Around, Back Around, Back Around) Yeah,
You Hear Me When I Say, I Just Wanna Be More
(Back Around, Back Around, Back Around) Oh, Oh, Oh
(Back Around, Back Around, Back Around) Oh
