"Depend On" is a retro soul song with a modern twist that elicits a cool head nod with a groovy vibe that's perfect for cooking dinner, cleaning the house, or just hanging out. It's about longing for someone to depend on in a relationship, romantically, in business, or a friendship, after being hurt by someone you trust.

Lyrics:

I want someone I can depend on
Like the kick on the ones and threes
I want somebody for the long run
Somebody who won’t walk out on me

Somebody I can trust
With the Things
That mean the most to me
Somebody I can trust
To stand up
And stand by me

Could it be you?

I want someone I can depend on
Like 4 legs on a chair
I want someone I can believe in
Somebody who’s always gonna be there

I’ve trusted before
Something I don’t so easily anymore
I got burned
And I learned
To go it alone
I got hurt
I got scared
Because I’m not that strong

I want someone I can depend on
Like my heart keeps the beat
Somebody I can really lean on
Like my crutches after knee surgery
