Lyrics
Well what do you know, another struggling to deal with heartache
Hoping he finds a way to escape
His pain with pleasure even if temporary and only last a day
That's one less he gotta handle face to face
Or so he thinks, but still we continue the chase
Continue the race
Running in place
Day after day
Steady stagnant stasis state
Might as well be standing straight
Already full of fear from starting over with a brand new slate
Need my brothas near me when it hits the fan in case I break
I ain't ever felt this before
I should be sober but won't
Feeling trapped inside my own home
Fuck having my back up against em, I'm wrapped up in the ropes
And honestly wanna smoke
Walking in my job sippin on
Some shit I mixed when I woke
Standing right there next to my bro
Couldn't think of one single way that would help me cope
Until I found my way down that bottle
Every other night, throwing parties, hitting some hoes that look like models
Hell yeah trynna avoid all my problems
So don't judge if you ain't been right where I am or you ain't got em
One hell of a feeling
So I'm doing it again and again
One hell of a dealing
Blood alcohol level on ten
That's 1.0 and when I'm with my friends
Move it up a little bit
Shit I'm at the crib
Turn up the music, ima zone out, blow a back out then next time go for the friend
I just cracked open a jar of moonshine
Then popped open some dark for dark times, Oh yeah that's what I'm on
Cause I done got so low in my life
But still respond with yeah I'm alright
I been mixin night and day
Every night and day
Feelings chasin after me, so I hide away
Hide and seek, fly away
Idk why I think what I need to get through, I might escape
We talkin 2017
We talkin nightmares no dreams
We talkin bout forgetting even the smallest ounce of peace
We talkin downin a 5th, but gotta hide it from family
We talkin fear of the mirror so I'm always with the homies
We trauma bondin
Toxic and proud about it
This shit is so sick and bitches love it like it's not a problem
More shots then we hit the lotto
Back shots with a couple lies to follow
It's vivid, it's wicked, sounds fictitious and yes is a problem
Aye listen, all of this adult life, I don't want this shit no more
Take it back, miss the simpler times and days that came before
All I had to do was stay in school and make sure I came home
Never thinking bout the stress and worry one day I'd take on
Why, the, hell, every time something bad happens it begins a wave
Like you standing on stage
Getting hella tomatoes tomatoes tomatoes tomatoes for days
Can't move or pick up the pace
You can't even lift up ya face
Don't wanna be bothered or even hear what anybody gotta say
Just pile it altogether and erase
I just cracked open a jar of moonshine
Then popped open some dark for dark times, Oh yeah that's what I'm on
Cause I done got so low in my life
But still respond with yeah I'm alright
I been mixin night and day
Every night and day
Feelings chasin after me, so I hide away
Hide and seek, fly away
Idk why I think what I need to get through, I might escape
