Down On Your Luck

Use to be a prodigy
Now I'm just novelty
Way before Instagram
People use to follow me
Now I'm just a shell of my old self
Trying to get back to my old self
Cause where I am
Ain't the happiest of places
Rather drink, smoke, and fuck
The pain away Instead of face it
See, my thoughts are
The opposite of positive
I done spent so long
Trying not to acknowledge it
See me in my glory
Fronting for the gram
When in actuality
That ain't who I am
Trapped inside this grown man's
Body is a broken little boy
So lost trying to find the way
Back to his joy
Daily meditation
Prayers for salvation
Begging for deliverance
I know I must patient
But it seems I been waiting
For a lifetime
Thank God the shoes
You walking in
Ain't nothing like mine

When you down on luck
So depressed you can't get up
Don't wallow in it hopelessly
Fight for what you hope to be

I'm a husband and a father now
Home owner in a quiet town
Living a life that most only dream of
Got some garbage from my past
I'm trying to clean up
My family history till recently
Was something like a mystery
Since I found the truth quietly
I been in misery
All I wanna do
All I wanna do is be numb
A drug addict? Swore to God
I would never be one
But here I am, here I am
I am just a man, I'm just a man
Doing the very best I can
But honestly, that ain't good enough
I need to do better, and be better
Though it won't be easy
Got a little girl who need me
To G.I. Joe the situation
And be all that I can be

When you down on luck
So depressed you can't get up
Don't wallow in it hopelessly
Fight for what you hope to be

When you down on luck
So depressed you can't get up
Don't wallow in it hopelessly
Fight for what you hope to be

When you down on luck
So depressed you can't get up
Don't wallow in it hopelessly
Fight for what you hope to be

When you down on luck
So depressed you can't get up
Don't wallow in it hopelessly
Fight for what you hope to be
