Raymond Maxwell - Hard Liquor lyrics

[Intro: Lloyd Maz] Ahhh sh** Uh I'm high as f**.... I told you... but ya know, that's why I'm making this song... cause uh... We're gonna learn from this... mistake, and become better people Ha...k? [Verse 1: Lloyd Maz] This is the story of a struggling man But no matter what I've done, this wasn't part of the plan Take some uppers and downers mix it with hard liquor Even though it's not safe, it brings the buzz quicker... yeah I was never one to resort to d** But I feel so alone when this world tugs Maybe I should tell the world what's really filling my mug Take another sip and find myself asleep on the rug Got up and snorted something special now I'm wide awake Kinda scary when I'm sober body starts to shake I don't know how much more that I'm willing to take Life just has its own ways to make me feel so raped I am just a result of hurt and pent up hate I don't mean to sound weak just trying to escape When I'm trapped in myself and can't seem to relate To everyone surrounding me, that makes me contemplate Taking my own life to make the pain stop I don't wanna tell my brother cause he might not Understand I haven't changed I just got caught up in A vicious cycle where my demons found a way to win [Hook: Lloyd Maz] I took some uppers and downers, mixed it with hard liquor To make the pain go away I know I should stop But I might not I was hoping I would fall asleep and stay forever In this dream where I wasn't sad I know it sounds a little crazy but It was the best day I never had It was the best day I never had... and I loved it, eh It was the best day I never had... who woulda thought [Verse 2: Lloyd Maz] Sometimes I feel like I'm sleeping, at my nine to five Am I coming or going... am I even alive? I pop a pill to keep me happy so I make it through Another day of doing something that I hate to do There's gotta be something better that I can do with life Cause the way that I'm living isn't feeling right My shift is over now I'm working hard throughout the night Pop a second pill to motivate myself to write This habit started when you left me cause I hate to miss you Oh how I loved to kiss you Who am I kidding you were nothing but a girl who loved to Torture me when all I ever did was give you love But what the hell am I saying this songs about the d** I got over you already let me switch it up See I have some problems and I solve em any way I have to but I never let my habits get the best of me because I know that I'm too strong to fall I have a purpose that is bigger than the people who surround me and I know the town I live in is a dead end path full of a bunch of junkies who latch onto anyone around them and I'm nothing like you... Piss off [Hook: Lloyd Maz] I took some uppers and downers, mixed it with hard liquor To make the pain go away I know I should stop But I might not I was hoping I would fall asleep and stay forever In this dream where I wasn't sad I know it sounds a little crazy but It was the best day I never had It was the best day I never had... and I loved it, eh It was the best day I never had... who woulda thought [Verse 3: Lloyd Maz] I'm not saying how I've been living's something you should do Truly, I'm ashamed of myself When my brother hears this record I might lose a tooth But man I love you I just had to tell the world I fell Let them see that I'm a human too I am capable of flaws just like another man When you've seen the things I have you've gotta speak the truth And I'm hoping this will help someone who needs a hand Because there's plenty of people I know that will relate And find the strength because they heard me spill it on a page There are two kinds of people walking this tight rope Ones that fall and get right back up and those who don't But I'm here to catch the ones that can't Do it all on their own when everything is falling I'm the leader of the lost and I hear them calling And I hear em calling This is the story of a struggling man I wrote this song to help someone fight through another day A story I'm only sharing to help you find your way The underdog still falls but I won't ever break [Hook: Lloyd Maz] I took some uppers and downers, mixed it with hard liquor To make the pain go away I know I should stop But I might not I was hoping I would fall asleep and stay forever In this dream where I wasn't sad I know it sounds a little crazy but It was the best day I never had It was the best day I never had... and I loved it, eh It was the best day I never had... who woulda thought
