Lyrics

It's not easy to change
And it seems to me strange
That the choices that I make
Take me back to the same
Taxing my brain
As I try to make gains
But it's like groundhog day
And I'm stuck in the rain
I make plans I make goals
And man I got soul
But the doubt re-routes
And I'm on the couch
Hitting' bowls
Motivation gone
Slow to see whats wrong
Blaming outside sources
For what's really going on
Gotta stop all that
Like a pop bottle cap
I'll never hit the throttle
If I'm fizzled out and flat
But it's physical in fact
How I react
To the way I keep behaving even though I know the trap
It used to be fun
Now it's like a rerun
Marathon dusk till dawn
Wishing it would be done
Before even begun
I know the ending
Negative self talk
A precipice shelf walk
Eclipse my own wishes and live simply shell shocked
Post traumatic stress
Got me hiding from my best
Take the pain away
I'll take a rain check on the test
Of what's really testing me
Everyday is besting me
Counting all my blessing
Except the one that could be
Setting me
Free from the Deja vu
And send me on my way to what I want to see true
Cuz if it's really what I want
There's only one thing left to do
Change comes gradually
Pain keeps stabbin' me
Grabbin' at habits
To mask what's happened to me
With the truth in focus
I start to feel hopeless
I've always been fucked up
But it's tough now that I know this
Like a new framework
To tame the jerk
Who blamed a curse
For his worse decisions
Living with that in my brain hurt
Now that's the main work
To accept what I can change. Shirk
What I can't.
Dirt gets done
I'm the one that it all comes down to
Ground 2-1- 0
Heads Donnie Brasco
Life's Rob Diniro
Let down and betrayed
I try to let go of those days
As I start to sober up
I know I'm up against the rage
That I suppressed
Dealt with stress
By not feeling it
Weekends on X
To numb the next week I'm dealing with
And in my head its clear skies
But there really ain't no rainbows
The truth of who I am
Is just driving me insane bro
And I know it gets better
At least that's what they say
But it's one day at a time
So I guess I'll have to stay
Believing that it's gonna
Or just be a goner
Have my kids loose there father
To beer and marijuana
Like it really doesn't matter I'll keep it under the lid
And not truly be honest with what it mean to be my kid
An exact likeness, that's why I can't be like this
I hold tight to the mic
And I fight to write this
The old me is telling me
This way is wack
But I was forever failing
And that's a fucking fact
So before they're chucking me change
I'm changing back
To the youth who knew the truth
And was proof of how to act
Tap in to the power of love
In my hour of lack
Push my life forward
Try to not look back
In the past
I couldn't last
I needed help but couldn't ask
A month of cold turkey
Then I'd wake up trashed
And on went the cycle
Until I could barely write those
Words from my heart
Like every line was a typo
Not what was meant
Not a true intent
Just some fake persona
That I tried to invent
As if the real me had thoughts
That were stupid and lame
That little voice inside my head
Shouting guilt and shame
Trying to sound hard
Like that shit don't phase me
But I'm self medicating my pain
Nightly and daily
Coping to get by
Hoping I don't die
An angry lonely addict
Who never could and won't try
Kids scared to death of me
Wifey shedding tears
A guy who used to rhyme
But hadn't done it in years
That ain't no way to go out
I gotta get this flow out
I choose today sober
So I know I got no doubt
That I am what I am
And pull the curtains on the sham
Of acting like I don't understand the real plan
