You know those days when you wanted to choose To not get out of bed and Get lost in your head again You play the game but you gotta cut Cuz' you're coming down hard Your joints are off stud I tried to say that's not the only way I never knew if I could Convince myself to change You were pacing I was insecure Slip and fall I got the calls of the Prison I was living in Yeah yeah and it's okay I tie my hands up to a chair So I don't fall that way Yeah yeah and I'm alright I took a sip of something poison But I'll hold on tight
