All night, all night You've been in your mind We were supposed to be leaving But you keep overthinking Everything you try Try, oh, it's not right One doubt then another Another something to cover You're in the mirror, but you're not seeing yourself Just seeing all the ways you could be someone else I know you feel sometimes like you're not good enough You're not the only one All I'm tryna say is don't change Every part of you is just right, don't change Not a single curve or one line So why cover up your flaws?

We can get along But I'll still keep the piece to keep the beast away from me I know he's waiting patiently for me to arrive I survived so many nights and my torturous ways So really, it's myself the one that should be afraid I walk a tight rope between God and the reaper and I'm ready For either but they leave it up to me to choose my path I got this wrath inside my chest and it's burning, don't get rest Sometime I feel like it's a test But rest assured, I know therе's more To life than this, you blink, you miss Next thing you know you'rе deep in shit Thinking about the things you could've done different, I know we wish upon the stars But know they way too far When do we give up? When that liquor don't give you hiccups And those pills don't get your dick up Why do we get high? To balance out the lows? Why do we sit by and watch the world implode? Not getting younger and that's getting really old Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told Why do we get high? To balance out the lows? Why do we sit by and watch the world implode? Not getting younger and that's getting really old Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told Get your diploma Go to college You might be somebody You hang with bums You might become one Boy, just think about it Can't go too far with shackles on your feet Connected to the weakest link In your crew (Don't hold me back, don't hold me down) Don't hold me back Don't hold me down Just let me swim or maybe drown You surround yourself with clowns, well, what that make you? Got a lot to go around but when that bank account drown No one is to be found so what's that tell you? Why do we get high? To balance out the lows? Why do we sit by and watch the world implode? Not getting younger and that's getting really old Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told Why do we get high? To balance out the lows? Why do we sit by and watch the world implode? Not getting younger and that's getting really old Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told I lock myself in my room every night With my pistol grip tight Fighting demons left and right with all my might I might convince myself that i'm the chosen one For everyone to leech off But fuck that I can't be the one to feed all No you won't be taking advantage Need a Xanax for the damage To the canvas of my life I gotta manage Step to the side if you ain't riding with me bitch I need someone I could confide in with no judgement Or passive agressiveness Why do we get high? To balance out the lows? Why do we sit by and watch the world implode? Not getting younger and that's getting really old Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told Why do we get high? To balance out the lows? Why do we sit by and watch the world implode? Not getting younger and that's getting really old Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told Why do we get high? To balance out the lows? Why do we sit by and watch the world implode? Not getting younger and that's getting really old Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told Why do we get high?

To balance out the lows? Why do we sit by and watch the world implode? Not getting younger and that's getting really old Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told Liberate your mind and soon the soul will follow Gotta keep my tips hollow And my dick swallowed Drowning in my sorrows Praying for tomorrow Flying down the I9 like OJ in the bronco For the love of money Ya I need it pronto The fame is overrated And quite frankly hard to handle Way too many situations tend to turn to scandals You can't bury with me lies bitch So put away them candles Why do we get high? To balance out the lows? Why do we sit by and watch the world implode? Not getting younger and that's getting really old Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told Why do we get high? To balance out the lows? Why do we sit by and watch the world implode? Not getting younger and that's getting really old Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told Race against the clock We die for drop tops Long walks in flip flops Out the dark into the light In spite of everything I did wrong I hope they singing my song When i'm long gone I hope I make it through the long haul That we call life When it comes to this rap shit I got the Midas touch I'm like Kobe clutch With the 40 tucked 'Cause I never trust nobody Even second guess myself Keep my eyes wide up (yuh) I keep my eyes wide open Why do we get high? To balance out the lows? Why do we sit by and watch the world implode? Not getting younger and that's getting really old Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told Why do we get high? To balance out the lows? Why do we sit by and watch the world implode? Not getting younger and that's getting really old Sit down, watch it unfold, 'cause that's what I was told Why do we get high Get-get-high Get Why do we get high Get-get-high Get Why do we Why do we get high

I'm only half drunk If you were thinkin' of pourin' more wine It's only midnight And I got nothin', nothin' but time Is it half empty or half full? This glass of mine I'm only half wrong If you were thinkin' 'bout stayin' this time It's only midnight And I got nothin', nothin' but time It may be half-baked But I've got lots, lots of ideas Hey darlin', here's one Won't you come and lend me your ear? Like Mona Lisa gave old Da Vinci that half smile I'll paint a picture that will half convince you I'm fine It's only midnight And I've got nothin', nothin' but time I got half a mind to tell you 'bout it, brother It's always six of one, and half a dozen of the other This or that, tit for tat My baby's on the line I'm always only half the way to makin' her all mine I'm only half drunk If you'll be buyin' one more round I've been half crazy Tryin' to simmer, simmer on down You see half the people, but only half of half of the time Tell me, how can a nickel stand right up to a dime? I'm only half drunk This night is half gone And I'll be long gone before too long It's only midnight And I've got nothin', nothin' but time I'm only half drunk If you were thinkin' of pourin' more wine
