Every Time

Every time that I tried, life fucked me up
Can't nobody pick me up but me
Every time that I tried, got me down bad
But I be looking back and think
Got me like, where are we
What the hell we looking for

I'm like, what the hell
Life seemed to hit me like a supercell
Feeling like I'm off the way but who can tell
Every time they ask, I say I'm doing well
I can't lose myself
In this life that I'm living, man, it's hard to keep up
I been trying to touch the ceiling from down in a deep rut
I used to run the back roads and that would be enough
But now when I hurt I pour a remedy up
Used to be so simple then
Just cruising midnight singing Simple Man
Why does everything feel different
Wishing I could go back to there again

Every time that I tried, life fucked me up
Can't nobody pick me up but me
Every time that I tried, got me down bad
But I be looking back and think
Got me like, where are we
What the hell we looking for

I got way too many friends that turned to enemies
Feeling like they're out to get me now by any means
My head was in the clouds and full of hella dreams
Now I'm down with demons, I ain't mean to set them free
Living in my own mind, nothing feels right
Wanna rewind, different time
Maybe I'm better now, maybe I'm fine
But the path less taken don't come with no lines
I been looking for something that I can't find
Swimming deeper even with my hands tied
Like I'm hearing whispers from a past life
Probably never know until I flatline

Every time that I tried, life fucked me up
Can't nobody pick me up but me
Every time that I tried, got me down bad
But I be looking back and think
Got me like, where are we
What the hell we looking for
