Another day, another person wanna front of me Misery, the only one who wants company It's like it was fine when I was helping you get back on your feet Now, you don't need me no more What's up with that? Another day, I've been struggling with this depression After giving out the impression that I leave others impressed Like I'm stepping into some gold mine Losing my sh Oh, no, no, I'm fine Eroded mind focused on the past and the old times I'm trying to make change Worried about old dimes that gave half the effort Buried in whole lies Can't make heads or tails on when they flip out Hanging in the pockets of another Steady following the tip route I'm empty, filling ajar Society wants me to be a part of what normally keeps me afar You know me, my breed is sparse Bismi-allah I find that peace in my heart by dishing out decent bars Cause the bottle bottom search doesn't seem to work With where I'm at now Can't shake the past, still feeling singular I don't know how to get some help, it's worthless Trapped in my mind with no bars A different kind of cell service Another day, another person wanna front of me Misery, the only one who wants company I just can't take it Man, I just can't take it I just can't shake it Man, I just can't shake it Another day, another person wanna front of me Misery, the only one who wants company Man, I just can't take it Man, I just can't take it Man, I just can't shake it Man, I just can't Another day, the same routine Thinking it's all gravy like poutine Stomach all in knots from all the mood swings Kick it with the homies, going back and forth Not really going nowhere I'm so scared of hanging here alone, not trying to do things This swing set feels like it wrings necks Got it twisted, spinning out Losing sight that the team's next And even though there's a saddle for two I'm scared to take you on the ride I see the gallows in view Now jump off I escape by getting lifted I'm over the bar with the mischief Swig of whisk, whether hit or miss Running after big ol' hips Don't pump me up to hit the dirt That's a bigger risk I had to give up my childish ways This world sees me as a lonely black These chains really trying to hold me back I'm worried bout the wildest craze Meanwhile they push you back and I just smile unfazed Another day, another person want to front on me Misery the only one that wants company I just can't take it Man I just can't take it Man I just can't shake it Man I just can't shake it Another day, another person want to front on me Misery the only one that wants company I just can't take it Man I just can't take it Man I just can't shake it Man I just can't I don't understand what's going on I try to help you with trying to get you back into the greatest potential that you are I care for you I love you I wanted to be there for you It seems like now all you want to do is just Push me to the side now that you got your life together I don't understand this I try to be compassionate about stuff And now you want to go ahead and just act like We never even existed Like we never had a chemistry Like we never had anything to even connect with I guess you got to do you and I gotta do me, so I'll see ya around
