Only If I Could

Whiskey on the shelf, couple pills layin' down on the floor
Got these demons in my head, I don't wanna be here anymore
Wide awake in my bed, hear the Devil knockin' at my front door
Maybe I should run away, what the hell am I runnin' for?

People tell me that I'm evil, they say that I'm no good
I've been through a lot of things, maybe I'm misunderstood
But I won't let you cross me, I wish somebody would
You tell me I should change my ways, only if I could

You know what I been through, you rolled with me
But I don't need no pity
I just think it's funny how you do me shitty
Every time I'm broke and ain't got a penny
You drift away like I never knew ya
Like this whole shit meant nothin' to ya
But, girl, that's cool, I'm strong as hell
I just thought you should know that you wrong as hell

But carry on with your bad self
Just don't call me when you need some help
When you need somebody, and nobody's 'round
When the party stops, and you're comin' down
You're confused and lost in somebody's house
That'll teach your ass to go fuck around
And as for me, I gotta bottle now
Took a couple pills, I'm being honest now

Here's the thought of you, I'm tryin' to wash it down
Truthfully, I'm 'bout to drown
And by the way, I thought I would mention
Your best friend hit me up and wanna come visit
I told her, shit, she must be trippin'
She must not respect y'all's motherfuckin' friendship
Plus I'm not shady like that
I would hate for somebody to play me like that

Whiskey on the shelf, couple pills layin' down on the floor
Got these demons in my head, I don't wanna be here anymore
Wide awake in my bed, hear the Devil knockin' at my front door
Maybe I should run away, what the hell am I runnin' for?

People tell me that I'm evil, they say that I'm no good
I've been through a lot of things, maybe I'm misunderstood
But I won't let you cross me, I wish somebody would
You tell me I should change my ways, only if I could

Now, you ridin' 'round with this fuckin' lame
You let him call my phone, and even mention my name
After all the hell that we done lived through
I could have done you the fuckin' same
It's a damn shame, but do your thang, chick
Different day, but the same shit
I tried everything to keep this flame lit
But thanks to you, now, we ain't shit

And that pussy boy you let disrespect me
He gonna eat them words as soon as I catch him
He thought he was flexin', oh, big shot
I'm gonna teach that boy to keep his lip locked
When I stomp his head in these flip-flops
You should have known better to get me pist off
But it won't be long, you'll be single and free
Probably do him the same way that you did me

Out runnin' the streets lookin' for your next hit
Girl, you deserve everything you get
And just remember, don't dial me up
Just keep doin' you, being wild as fuck
And I don't hate you, I wish you luck
I wish the best for the both of us
And I hope you find what you're lookin' for
But as for me, I done had enough

Whiskey on the shelf, couple pills layin' down on the floor
Got these demons in my head, I don't wanna be here anymore
Wide awake in my bed, hear the Devil knockin' at my front door
Maybe I should run away, what the hell am I runnin' for?

People tell me that I'm evil, they say that I'm no good
I've been through a lot of things, maybe I'm misunderstood
But I won't let you cross me, I wish somebody would
You tell me I should change my ways, only if I could
