Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's about goddamn time
I've been working hard on the nine to five
Sarah from HR is banging my line
Water cooler small talk slowly draining life
[Verse 2]
From my veins, that's the routine every day
Want my office to be a Telecaster
Making that paper, dream catcher
No strings attached, yeah
[Verse 3]
This is a robbery, hands up, hands up
Put your serotonin in the bag
Is this what people feel when they need a drag?
I never fucked with that, I don't fuck with that
[Verse 4]
Got a girl with a vision (Shotgun on that)
Never seen it in the flesh? (Take a photograph)
Don a Fred Perry, man, my boots are strapped
Paranoid running, thinking I've been tracked
[Verse 5]
Just kidding, I retract
I don't even tell my therapist that
Somethings are better left unsaid, true facts
Okay, I'm getting too abstract
[Verse 6]
Oh, I been running my mouth again
Someone get me a muzzle
I don't wanna tell you how I feel
And yet, I do this every time, time
[Verse 7]
Tryna maintain tunnel vision
Is a promise I can't keep to myself
I'm too hard on myself
But I keep doing it to myself
[Verse 8]
Don't we all just need some loving, baby? (Some validation)
Logged on, but all I got was depression and some lousy T-shirt
Comparing myself to others, I guess
Is not the best course of action
[Verse 9]
But tell that to my alter ego
Confidently left and ain't come back yet
So bottle it up, keep my head down
No one else is my worst enemy now
[Verse 10]
My mind's puzzled
Many thoughts are faded, left me ruffled
Articulating feelings is a struggle
I'm seeing double
My mouth quivers like a dog wearing a muzzle
Attacking everything, she's never humble
Her words fumble
She stay tripping, everybody sees her stumble
Her mental health decaying on the double
She needs a cuddle
Evidently, there's trouble under the rubble
And this is why her man is slightly puzzled
A diamond in the rough
She gets up, she dusts herself off
Gradually, she tells herself to pattern up
She walks the walk, talks the talk
With positive thought
No longer feeling like her life is distraught
Uh-huh, uh-huh
[Verse 11]
Do it and I'm damned, damned if I don't
So I keep moving on
Shall I keep schtum, keep it to myself
Or buy myself a megaphone?
[Verse 12]
Oh, I been running my mouth again
Someone get me a muzzle
I don't wanna tell you how I feel
And yet, I do this every time, time
[Verse 13]
I been running my mouth again
Someone get me a muzzle
I don't wanna tell you how I feel
And yet, I do this every time, time
