[HOOK]
And I'm sinkin' in the potion
Not blinkin' eyes are open
They're thinkin' Isaac's wise
But I don't even know where the f** that I was goin'
[VERSE 1]
All I ask is for an honest listen
Feel like I went from hooked on phonics straight to thomas pynchon
Feel like I've squandered what the gods have given
Gotta get my sh** together quick because the bomb is tickin'
I'm not the problem, I'm a victim
Swallow what I'm given
I'm a product of your system
Ganja and narcotics yeah we bought it and we mix ‘em
And I will never fall but I swear the bottom's risen
I will not forget that I am not forgiven
I lost my religion
When I saw your god's intentions
And now my agnosticism is the cause of rising tensions
A rift between my mom and I and it's my fault if I don't mend it
Are you surprised my vision's swimmin'?
And my words comin' slurred off the sh** that I've been sippin'
[HOOK]
[VERSE 2]
She wants to save me, I don't wanna be saved
So lady love me or leave me but I'm not gonna behave
I got nothin' to say
Just up, up and away
I puff and I pray
But still I'm stuck in today
I got nowhere to go still I'm f**ed if I stay
What happened to when I said I was done runnin' in place?
Empty wallets
Still we're spendin' dollars
Can't carry steel so we k** with kindness
And the pills fill our pockets
Tryna block it
But the scents and the sounds are reminders
So don't tell me just to put it all behind us
Can't say it in the songs so I put it in my silence
Hey man, I've been broke
Brim low
Bless ‘em with the penstrokes
There's no use in stressin' that's my message to the dense folks
Bandana tied, that's how I still picture you
You're who I still call when I need someone to listen to
Soakin' in the bathtub, listenin' to b**hes brew
Feelin' somewhere between ecstatic and miserable
Why so critical?
sh**, at least I'm feelin' cool
Like kids with gats in middle school
Or gatsby in the swimming pool
It's not a pa**ion if it's picked for you
It's never what I wanted but I guess it's what I'm meant to do
Write that in your interview
My head's above water, but only by an inch or two
[HOOK 2x]
[OUTRO 2x]
Don't blame me
I'm only what you made me
So go ahead and hate me
I'm just takin' what you gave me
I'm only what you named me
I'm sinking and i'll drown if you won't reach out and save me
