Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm off the shits again, I'm off the shits again
I seen my demons, know they names, and know I live with them
I'm off the shits again, I'm off the shits again
I'm off the, off the, off the, off the
[Verse 2]
Often, often, often, often off the loco, often off the block
Often off the slo-mo, Travis off his rock, like, oh my God, oh my Lord
They want these problems, oh, of course too much shit, we built to stay
They ain't live like this before, no, they don't know about it
[Verse 3]
Make it through the week, mom can barely sleep
Dad wake up at two, don't get home till three
I've been out with them, they no good for me
In and out your house, takin' what I need
Skimpy sacks of weed, tuggin' jacket sleeves
Sister off at school, little boy at home
Someone save me, please, but shit ain't for free
[Verse 4]
No, I'm anxiety-ridden
I make the surface digestible, but the guy in me isn't
Like, every night when they visit, I lay awake and I stare
I know that something is comin', but dog, I'm so unprepared
I know it
[Verse 5]
I'm off it
Know that something's comin', but can't call it
I put down everythin' I had, I'm all in, all in
But I still need you now, ay
But I still need you now
But I still need you now, ay
But I still need you now, ay, yeah, yeah
[Verse 6]
I need you
I need you
I need you
I need you
(I need you)
[Verse 7]
I'm fit to blow, and I'm fit to lead, I got shit to do, I got kids to feed
For generation come, it's a mystery, whatcha did to me? We got history
Disbelief turned to disarray, you piss me off with the shit you say
Sayin' motherfuckers should still stay friends
When you come through, the walls don't cave in
[Verse 8]
That's some cute shit, but it's still real
But the mood switched, we just can't chill
I've been movin' around town roofless
And bet they callin', and this ain't real
I come from men who just drown out their problems in bottles
And wake up and do it again
I come from heroes who blow up and ball out
And don't ever call back, or just make amends
[Verse 9]
Come from a city of fuck it and give up
Come from a family of I hate my liver
Come from a crew of I don't give a fuck about nothing
Get my GED, run forever
Can't let you go, can't let it be
Wake up at night, jaw be grindin' my teeth
Shit is not good, but I'm the funny one
So I just laugh it off, be who they need
Singing
[Verse 10]
I'm off it
Know that something's comin', but can't call it
I put down everythin' I had, I'm all in, all in
But I still need you now, ay
But I still need you now
But I still need you now, ay
But I still need you now, ay, yeah, yeah
[Verse 11]
(I need you)
I need you and I need all you came for (I need you)
I need you 'cause this ain't what I'm made for (I need you)
I need you to shield me from the rainfall
'Cause this rain pourin', I'm drownin' now
And I'm down and out, and I run my mouth (I need you)
But I stay for you, and you ain't around (I need you)
I don't sleep too good, I don't trust no one
But I hide that shit 'cause I'm not your problem now
