Life

Lyrics

If I could put my problems in a paper
 Then I'd roll 'em up and blow 'em away
 If I could find a pill to solve 'em
 I would take a bottle and I'd be okay
 If I could fit my sorrows in a glass
 I'd pour a double shot and drink 'em away
 If life was that easy, then I'd never have to worry for the rest of my days
 But life just ain't that easy, oh no, no-no
 It's taken its toll on me deep down in my soul
 Cheers, bottoms up
 I wish that I could roll my problems up
 Wish I could put 'em in a pill and just swallow 'em
 Wish I could swallow 'em every time I pick the bottle up
 Then I would chug, chug
 You know that I would kill it, get fucked up
 I wish that that would end it
 Driving and my liquor meant the drummer would be finished
 But in reality that would just be the beginning
 I really got a feeling that it's not for me to change
 Instead of really dealing with it, I just keep running away
 I gotta start dealing with the shit that's on my plate
 But it's hard when I'm sick from the shit that I done ate
 And I'm nauseous
 And it's hard to sleep at night when I'm turning and tossing
 And it's hard for a man like me to accept my losses
 What do we do now, when you froze inside
 And it's cold outside, and the heat goes out
 When you're already late and you gotta detour 'cause the streets shutdown
 And it's all on you, 'cause you know you can't let your people down
 You gotta go in beast mode now
 If I could put my problems in a paper
 Then I'd roll 'em up and blow 'em away
 If I could find a pill to solve 'em
 I would take a bottle and I'd be okay
 If I could fit my sorrows in a glass
 I'd pour a double shot and drink 'em away
 If life was that easy, then I'd never have to worry for the rest of my days
 But life just ain't that easy, oh no, no-no
 It's taken its toll on me deep down in my soul
 All my life I been fucking up, all my life I been not enough
 It's hard to learn to love when your mama just treat you like you ain't nothing
 She chose her man over her kids
 Stuck with him through a bid
 But she won't answer my fucking call
 Man that shit just bring me to tears, but fuck that
 I gotta be strong 'cause I know my son is watching
 I gotta make sure my daughter see her daddy thriving
 'Cause these kids gon' do what you do but not what you say
 I'm teaching 'em that it's not okay to be just okay, that's never okay
 Feeling stress as I sit and reminisce about my open cases
 A nigga meditate just to renovate all of my broken places
 On the real, I think I need therapy
 'Cause some of these thoughts I be having just be scaring me
 Scaring me, uh
 If I could put my problems in a paper
 Then I'd roll 'em up and blow 'em away
 If I could find a pill to solve 'em
 I would take a bottle and I'd be okay
 If I could fit my sorrows in a glass
 I'd pour a double shot and drink 'em away
 If life was that easy, then I'd never have to worry for the rest of my days
 But life just ain't that easy, oh no, no-no
 It's taken its toll on me deep down in my soul
 Life ain't just that easy, oh no
 It's taking a toll on me deep down in my soul
