Tylenol PM

Why am I up
I gotta calm down
Been awake for five straight days
Brain wont shut down.
Why aren't I happy
With what I have here
'Cause I got my family
I got my friends
But something ain't there.

Yeah

To my parents
I wanna be your pride
You want me to succeed
So that I can provide.
For myself, future wife
Family of five.
Degrees look at me
I'm a studios mind.
Now I'm staring at my ceiling
Tryna work it out.
Spent a decade of my life
Tryna fill a house
With expensive things like
Watches and rings but
Truth be told I only smile when I sing.
A little dopamine rush
Now I'm flexing
To hide the sad sad truth
That I'm stressing.
Maybe if I shine I can blind
The depression.
I count bills
I should be counting blessings.

So why am I up
I gotta calm down
Been awake for five straight days
Brain wont shut down.
Why aren't I happy
With what I have here
'Cause I got my family
I got my friends
But something ain't there.

Yeah

It really don't make sense.
By the book I should have it all
I memorize the pages
But the writing's on the wall.
My friends are fulfilled
With a life that they've filled
With some things that I feel
Aren't fulfilling at all.
I've got a condo
Check
West Elm
Check
Flatscreen
Check
Equinox
Check
Audi
Check
Talent
Check
Looks
Check
Freedom
Guess?
Another
Check
Another
Check
Invest it
Check
Diversify
Check
Savings
Check
Save me
Check
Man nothing checks.

So why am I, why am I up
I gotta calm down
Been awake for five straight days
Brain wont shut down. Yeah
Why aren't I happy
With what I have here
'Cause I got my family
I got my friends
But something ain't there.

Yeah

I'm so guilty
So goddamn guilty
That filthy, filthy
Self loathing fills me.
Don't be silly
Your life's a movie
Why don't anything
Ever move me like Music.
I guess it must be the music
So serve me up something soothing
To calm down these delusions.
