If I could tell you how I really felt well I really probably wouldn't At the bottom of the bucket got and bought some **** I shouldn't And now I'm feeling crooked and my money is spent Saved up for happiness but I was short by a cent So I splurged, I couldn't find the words to express Running circles in my mind till that **** was out of breath And I just want to feel content but I won't Cause all this pressure got me tight by the throat It's just another long night, got home and laughed Cause driving home going ninety almost crashed At least someone's got my back I like to think that it's my father looking down Pardon my stupidity, I'll come around And find my way up, back up on my feet maybe catch peace Get a little bit of sleep Cause in these troubled times we all looking for some solace Mama's getting worried, I'ma be fine, I promise It's hard to keep that hope when you staring at reality Cause what's real is working nights for your salary That rough **** in free time gets me thinking No wonder everybody smoking herb and drinking When winter comes I'll fold up freeze with the cold Those dark months in the state are getting old Maintaining my hope with a focus on the real Put everything in music so don't ask me how I feel I used to want to grow up, and now I want to grow down A fast life always ends in a slow down And holding to the hope is the everyday struggle Just want to break free from this everyday bubble I dream a new life and some complex **** I'm more than what you heard on my compact disc Can't slip, gotta grip to what I truly desire But trying to finding happiness is making me tired So I tell it like it is I'm just a kid I don't want to end up the way that you did I got some bigger dreams that a sleep can't give I'd rather have a smile than a big mansion So I tell it like it is I'm just a kid I don't want to end up the way that you did I got some bigger dreams that a sleep can't give I'd rather have a smile than a big mansion
