Death Grip

Doing therapy on Zoom on the patio in the afternoon
Flashback to the year I lost my mind
If I'm better than I was, if I'm better than I ever knew
How come it's so blue here all the time?

I'm just waiting for the tide
That's taking me home

Hey, hey, I guess we're just guessing
Hey, hey, crash course correction
You can't control it, life is the ocean
Waves are waves

Hey, hey, loosen the death grip
Can't win white-knuckle wrestlin'
Cracked open my solar plexus, all that comes next is floating
Waves are waves

Hey, the waves of energy
The waves of energy
The waves of energy
Waiting for, waiting for

I was waiting in the queue, got hung up tryna write verse two
Shadowboxed my way across the line
I keep reaching for my zen, but I never had to reach back then

Hey, hey, I guess we're just guessing
Hey, hey, crash course correction
You can't control it, life is the ocean
Waves are waves

Hey, hey, loose in the death grip
Can't win white-knuckle wrestlin'
Cracked open my solar plexus, all that comes next is floating
Waves are waves

And now you let it go and see what happens
And then you just let the light ground you
Think, "Am I forcing this or am I letting gravity take its hold?"
(What the fuck is that?)
If you're letting gravity, it's working to feel inspiring in a ways
(Jesus Christ, that was as stupid as this could get)
(What the fuck? I'm blowing it)

Hey, hey, I guess we're just guessing
Hey, hey, crash course correction
You can't control it, life is the ocean
Waves are waves

Hey, hey, loose in the death grip
Can't win white-knuckle wrestlin'
Cracked open my solar plexus, all that comes next is floating
Waves are waves

Hey, the waves of energy
The waves of energy
The waves of energy
Waiting for, waiting for

Hey, the waves of energy
The waves of energy
The waves of energy
Waiting for, waiting for
