Jorja Smith – ‘Don’t Leave’

February 23, 2026

Produced by New Machine

Listen
If you feel alone and you’ve got to run away from a place called home
Mamas always out and she don’t seem to know you
Look for the streets and the guys to make love to
Constant reminders you were a mistake
Bag packed and you’re thinking do I wanna run away

Don’t leave
No don’t run away
Don’t leave
What will make you stay
Don’t leave
No don’t run away
Don’t leave
Can I make you stay

Listen
If you feel insecure
Used and abused
No trust anymore
Cause I know that you’re waiting
Bags packed ready there’s no hesitation
Mum’s with a client
So your presence is vacant
Get set, go to your own destination

12 years pretending you have it worked out
When everything you see is mediated, have doubt
The streets aren’t what your taught in class
Cause the school doesn’t care anymore
You’ll just be another missing kid like before
And your friends weren’t your real friends
They seem to ignore
All your struggles and signs that true friends would look for
You’ve been planning this climax for years
I’m gonna ruin it so dry your tears
Turn right back around and face your fears
You belong in your home
You’re not alone
