Day Drinker

They find me face down in the bins taking out the trash Still, I won't be told, copacetic, everything is fine I was carrying too much weight, so I break, habit escalates Sometimes I enter rooms and forget why Got me lookin' stressed, got me lookin' pressed Got me lookin' vexed in the liquor aisle Trippin' over names, trippin' over dates Trippin' over texts, so I style it out Just the other day, what you tryna say? What you tryna say? I was lookin', why does everyone keep buying me books? Little brother knows the tango Lil' bro can sing the blues Little bro knows lots of things that he's not afraid to use He says he knows when I've been drinking He says he knows when I'm lost He says he knows when I am lying And he knows when I am not But it works both ways, brother I know you're loving this My little brother does a lot My frenemy lives in town and I see him almost twice a week So, we shoot the shit and pretend that this is all it is God hates the faint of heart The weak-willed and the profligate Do you remember summers learning Bible verse? Got me lookin' stressed, got me lookin' pressed Got me lookin' vexed, does my breath smell like wine? Trippin' over names, trippin' over dates Trippin' over texts, running out of time Just spit it out, bro, what you tryna say? What you tryna say? I was lookin' wild, what you need to watch is your conniving tongue Little brother wrote a letter Lil' bro prepared a speech Little bro rehearsed it all, but he will not cop to it He says he knows when I've been drinking He says he knows when I'm lost He says he knows when I am lying And he knows when I am not But it works both ways, brother I know you're loving this My little brother does the most
