Real Life
This whiskey here ain't strong enough for me
So much pressure I can barely breathe
My demons branded me like a headstone
Mama ain't here no more to pray for me
I'm surrounded by hate, fake, fame and greed
That dark days always seem to find a way
I've been dealing with pain, but keep a smile on my face
When nothing goes right
Then I take a left
Down this old road of lonely
With this whiskey breath
I drink all night and wake up depressed
Try to be a better father, put this bottle to rest
I keep on going cause that's all I know
Turnin' off every emotion. I'm in airplane mode
I keep my past in the rear view
With my middle finger up, screaming FUCK YOU!
I'm broke down, tore into pieces
Black clouds raining on me again
I can't get away!
Trying to get all the time I lost
I can't get back
1 foot in, the other outside the door
I can't make a mistake
This is real life today
This is real life today
But I feel like I'm living on the edge of
The motherfucking truth that I can't let go
Down that road that I've been so long
Mama know I'm wrong
Daddy still gone. No one gives a fuck
It's the same old song
I can feel it in my head, I've been dead wrong
Put away the bottle, then I come right home
Saying that I'm done
But the sad truth? I know I'm not
Then I take another shot to the dome
I've been through hell and I love it
Trying to rise above it
Take a look inside the mirror, can't help but be disgusted
I'm gone
Shit go wrong, I point the fingers at the other side
Can't help but wonder why? I'm afraid I'll run and hide
Funny how I sit there
And pretend everything's going to be okay
I'll pray to the lord, he going to lead my way
I'm done with the drink till I see my grave
But, I know that I'm not. Feeling it in my soul I'mma rot
See it when I'm toasting a shot
I'm cold and inside, pretending that I'm woke
And, I'm not
See it when I'm closing my eyes close my eyes
And I don't understand why you put up with me
I could rock the boat so much until it fucking sinks
I'm broke down till I wanna up and leave
But end up getting drunk
And then I cause another scene and I'm gone
I'm broke down, tore into pieces
Black clouds raining on me again
I can't get away
Trying to get all the time I lost
I can't give back. 1 foot in, the other outside the door
I can't make a mistake
This is real life today
So much pressure I can barely breathe
My demons branded me like a headstone
Mama ain't here no more to pray for me
I'm surrounded by hate, fake, fame and greed
That dark days always seem to find a way
I've been dealing with pain, but keep a smile on my face
When nothing goes right
