I Need You - Jelly Roll Official Song

When I was out the other day I saw some mutual friends They asked if I had spoke to you I thought of way back when And I started to reminisce about everything we done And every feeling that I had for you came back at once And I still hate your ass And I still hate your ass And I still hate your ass But I can't escape your ass Man fuck this shit I can't believe just how it ended My heart was really in it but you was just pretending A power couple I think about the shit we did The first thing that we did was went and get a bigger crib Now sitting here thinking can't believe this how it ends Even talking to the doctor about having us a kid You said when times got tough we keep trying You said that you loved me now I know you was lying The first to admit, I could have done better But it wasn't enough for you to throw away forever Now sitting here thinking how did we let this happen? Cause you and I both know you that you overreacting When I was out the other day I saw some mutual friends They asked if I had spoke to you I thought of way back when And I started to reminisce about everything we done And every feeling that I had for you came back at once And I still hate your ass And I still hate your ass And I still hate your ass But I can't escape your ass And I'd be lying if I said it wasn't the first time But shit I always show up when it is the worst time When other folks gave up on you I still fucks with you No matter what it was I always stuck with you I said goodbye to my past and the old me But still dealt with a stubborn fucking control freak I'm scared to sleep cause I see you in my dreams I wake up in a sweat and I swear I just wanna' scream I was the dude who was willing to ride for you I was the dude who was willing to die for you I never disrespected or put my hands on you And I never cheated, kept my dick in my pants for you I was out the other day I saw some mutual friends They asked if I had spoke to you I thought of way back when And I started to reminisce about everything we done And every feeling that I had for you came back at once And I still hate your ass And I still hate your ass And I still hate your ass But I can't escape your ass Brought every dollar that I had and put it on a table No it wasn't a lot but I was willing and able All you had to say was come home and it's okay And I'd give it up, fuck it I quit rapping today If time got tough you know that I would carry you Stop what I'm doing right now and I would marry you And just the thought alone starts to make me smile As I start to think about you coming waltzing down the aisle Now back to reality, girl you won't find Another motherfucker who's willing to stand beside you And love you the way that I do Go to war with the world and I'd be behind you I'm the one you call when wall come tumbling down Cause you know that I ain't fucking around The sad part is that I'd probably take you back right now And do it all over and lay my life down I was about to board this plane, just the other day With everything I owned in my bag, I was about to move away And I started to reminisce about everything we done And every feeling that I had for you came back at once I'm still in love with you I'm still in love with you I'm still in love with you It's like I'm stuck with you Girl I'm stuck with you

I don't know what I would do without you I don't know where I would be without you I don't know if I could breathe without you I don't know if I could live Give me a Xanax bar, I ain't coming down Gas through a flame of the sparks, I can't shut it down I been chasing these stars, the sun's coming out The pupil in my eyes the size of a dime My nose is runny now Lord, please forgive me of my sins What's it take to get these problems to start coming to an end Buck 50 on the desk, I'm touching on the whip And I'm thinking I'm 'bout to drive this motherfucker off a cliff I'm a ball of flames And if it wasn't for us, and it wasn't for love I'd throw it all away, I would've emptied the clip But that all switched the first time you called my name Before you I was out here sitting in the rain Before you I was out here living with the pain Before you I was out here wishing I could change on a collision course I was playing chicken with a train You're the one that I'm loyal to You're the one that I'm devoted to Need a change and it's overdue Nothing in life matters when I'm holding you I remember that night that you asked what's on my mind And I looked you in the eyes and I told you suicide (suicide) Suicide (suicide) It's like the harder I try only made me realize Without you by my side, I wouldn't even be alive (be alive) I wouldn't be alive Without you, it'd be suicide (suicide, suicide) Without you, it'd be suicide (suicide, suicide) Only love can save me from suicide (suicide, suicide) Without you, it'd be suicide (suicide, suicide) Only love can save me from me Life's taking its toll on me slowly And you're the only one that really knows me When we met, I mixed Sprite with the codeine If you wasn't in my life, I would've OD'd Came through the storm, dealt with the rising flood levels Coldhearted ice is pumping through my blood vessels I'll never know what you see in this fucking drug dealer Written in blood whenever I sent you a love letter I'm going back to my hole from the start I even swam with the sharks or alone in the dark 'Cause that's all I know Until you came and lit a match in my soul You're who I need when I'm feeling stressed You're the calm to my storm when I feel upset You help every time that I feel depressed A ticking time bomb with less than a minute left I swear to God, I could blow at any second Been here before and never learned my lesson I don't know why I'm always second-guessing But you're the only one that I never question I remember that night that you asked what's on my mind And I looked you in the eyes and I told you suicide (suicide) Suicide (suicide) It's like the harder I try only made me realize Without you by my side, I wouldn't even be alive (be alive) I wouldn't be alive Without you, it'd be suicide (suicide, suicide) Without you, it'd be suicide (suicide, suicide) Only love can save me from suicide (suicide, suicide) Without you, it'd be suicide (suicide, suicide) Only love can save me from me I don't know what I would do without you I don't know where I would be without you I don't know if I could breathe without you I don't know if I could live

In a world that's full of hope, why am I alone? Had this feeling so long, my serotonin's gone Even when I get high, why do I feel so low? Never good at goodbyes, I hold on I hate the man I see when I see myself A reflection of hell, yeah I told myself it's different, it's so hard to believe I know that I won't change, so I sold another dream All the lives I told are burning holes inside And I don't, I don't know why I broke a promise to myself As I stand here again all covered in mud And I'm drenched in my sins What have I become? I said the last time, that would be my last time Not good at goodbyes, I hold on If I jumped off this ledge, would you catch my fall? Would you care at all? I told myself it's different, it's so hard to believe I know that I won't change, so I sold another dream All the lives I've told are burning holes inside And I don't, I don't know why I broke a promise to myself All the stages of shaken All the roads that I've taken Wondering if I can really make it Feeling so depressed, I've been humbled and humiliated All the truth I've mistaken for the things I thought saved me It's like nobody knows At any given second, I feel like I might explode I told myself it's different, it's so hard to believe I know I'll never change, I sold another dream All the lives I've told are burning holes inside And I don't, I don't know why And I don't, I don't know why I broke a promise to myself

I been sick to my stomach So I'm drinking to numb it But I don't think this'll cut it Why do I feel so disgusting? 'Cause I don't know why I still feel like this, I feel like shit I close my eyes and jump right off the bridge just when it hit I know that I should stop and call it quits, I'm fucking sick And twisted They say I'm fucked in the head Mossberg pump and a trunk full of lead Crazy white boy rolling blunts in the shed With a knife by the pillow when I'm tucked into bed They looking at me crazy, is it something I said? You don't wanna know me when I run outta meds Where I'm from, we only run from the feds 'Cause ever since a yungin' it's been us versus them So I been tryna pick up all the pieces (pieces) But all I do is drink 'til I can't see shit (see shit) So I'll keep pouring liquor with my demons (demons) And if you keep talking shit you'll need your teeth fixed I been sick to my stomach So I'm drinking to numb it But I don't think this'll cut it Why do I feel so disgusting? And I don't know why I still feel like this, I feel like shit I close my eyes and jump right off the bridge just when it hit I know that I should probably call it quits, I'm fucking sick (Yeah, Jelly Roll and Mer) and twisted Lord forgive me 'cause you know me, so you know that I'm a sinner My nose is still runny 'cause I been on a bender And it's been snowy like the winner, white lines like the highway Vibrating, eyes wide, higher than the skyscraper You know me, I'm just numbing my pain Any day I fuck around and jump in front of the train I'm twisted and sick, shit, I need rehabilitation I don't know if I can make it, I really feel complacent These uppers and downers just have a downside Lord knows I fuck around and have a downslide I can't even describe the pain, I'm tryin' to cover up I might fuck around and cut the cord before I bungee jump I been sick to my stomach So I'm drinking to numb it But I don't think this'll cut it Why do I feel so disgusting? And I don't know why I still feel like this, I feel like shit I close my eyes and jump right off the bridge just when it hit I know that I should probably call it quits, I'm fucking sick And twisted

Yippie Ki Yay, Yippie Ki Yo, you can make me high, Or you can make me low. You gotta understand that's the way I roll. Talkin' 'bout, yippie ki yi... Yippie Ki Yay, Yippie Ki Yo, you can make me high, Or you can make me low. You gotta understand that's the way I roll. Talkin' 'bout, yippie ki yi. (Verse One [1]l Came up from the bottom baby, Covered in mud, to the top I rose honey nothin' but love. From a place that blow bud, sit back and get buzzed, They keep that thing going, guitars and kick drums. It's a party everytime that we walk in the spot, Like my Jack Daniel's straight, not on the rocks. Not gonna chase it with the water, I like whiskey with a kick, Put me in the game coach I'm sick of sittin' on the bench. Come On! Yippie Ki Yay, Yippie Ki Yo, you can make me high, Or you can make me low. You gotta understand that's the way I roll. Talkin' 'bout, yippie ki yi. Yippie Ki Yay, Yippie Ki Yo, you can make me high, Or you can make me low. You gotta understand that's the way I roll. Talkin' 'bout, yippie ki yi. (Verse Two [2]l Roll up another one and let me help my mind escape, I'm down to shoot a shot of whiskey any time or place. Came from the rubber with no rhythm and rhyme, I did what I had to do just to try and get by. Represent the middle class and lower class citizens, Cruel world we livin' in, hustlin' tryin' to get it in. I wake up hung over and be mad at myself, I be the first to admit, I'm kinda trashy myself. Yippie Ki Yay, Yippie Ki Yo. You can make me high, Or you can make me low. You gotta understand that's the way I roll. Talkin' 'bout, yippie ki yi. Yippie Ki Yay, Yippie Ki Yo. You can make me high, Or you can make me low. You gotta understand that's the way I roll. Talkin' 'bout, yippie ki yi. When that moonlight goes up, And we all show up, cuz we all know what's about to go down. Someone roll up, and we'll all smoke up, And we'll all blow up, the whole damn town. I've been drinking and smoking, I've been smoking and drinking, I wake up in the morning, like what the fuck was I thinking. I'm a real outsider, baby I'm a greaser, Back in high school I was trying to freak the teacher. Maybe I did, maybe I didn't, it's a secret, Don't you like this bumpin' shit that's coming out your speaker? Weed made me high, the liquor made me low, They wouldn't let us in so I'm kicking in the door. Man it's cool, I'm a fool, let me do what I do, I might bust up out the room trippin' on shrooms. Yeah I'm that kind of dude, baby that's who I am, When it's all said and done, I don't give a damn. Yippie Ki Yay, Yippie Ki Yo, you can make me high, Or you can make me low. You gotta understand that's the way I roll. Talkin' 'bout, yippie ki yi. Yippie Ki Yay, Yippie Ki Yo, you can make me high, Or you can make me low. You gotta understand that's the way I roll, Talkin' 'bout, yippie ki yi.

My soul is haunted, my heart is stolen You cannot break what's already broken I cannot get back time that I borrowed Life is too short to fill all of the sorrow I'm in this empty house (ooh-ooh) I'm not the only one that's here Me and the spirits now (ooh-ooh) And the walls are closing in I've prayed for peace before, all I know is war I have battled the voices within Angels I used to know, had to let them go Now they visit when fear's in the air My innocence taken, tried to replace it Chasing the same things that left me jaded Must have mistaken my courage for bravery Wasn't prepared for the turmoil and hatred Where will you turn when your conscience is calling your name? Memories burn, I just watch as they go up in flames I'm in this empty house (ooh-ooh) I'm not the only one that's here Me and the spirits now (ooh-ooh) And the walls are closing in I've prayed for peace before, all I know is war I have battled the voices within Angels I used to know, had to let them go Now they visit when fear's in the air When I'm lonely I don't feel alone I can't let go, darkness is holding on Almost died before, what I'm fighting for Is the chance that I finally change, I need peace It's so hard when my sins keep chasing me I'm in this empty house (ooh-ooh) I'm not the only one that's here Me and the spirits now (ooh-ooh) And the walls are closing in I've prayed for peace before, all I know is war I have battled the voices within Angels I used to know, had to let them go Now they visit when fear's in the air
