[Part 1]
EmB
I started bein' honest with myself, havin' conversations that weren't
CB
very easy, I need help, three words never thought I'd speak.
EmB
But here we are, Xanax bars, started poppin' them to cope,
CB
then got addicted, started thinkin' that I'd probably die alone.
[Part 2]
EmB
See this life is way too fast for me, I'm in the same career
CB
where half my colleagues turn to casualties, know y'all got those R.I.P.
EmB
Tweets up in the drafts, ready to go, for the moment
CB
that I finally take too much and overdose.
[Part 3]
EmB
Always thinkin' 'bout my father, burstin' into my apartment,
C
just to see his only son overdosin' on the carpet.
EmB
Flashin' back to every memory of when I was a kid
C
while he makes a final speech before he closes up the lid.
[Part 4]
EmB
I couldn't do it anymore, flush the rest and went to war
CB
I'm gettin' sober, I'm takin' my spot, back and shut the door
EmB
on my addiction, I hope you listen 'cause everything I write
C N.C.
from here on out is my prescription. Yeah, that's the mission.
[Part 5]
EmB
All this fame is overrated, over what man? I been stressed,
CB
all these fake people started to surround me and my friends.
EmB
I don't need that energy, I don't let those demons in,
C N.C.
finally startin' therapy, now it's time to reinvent, uh.
[Part 6]
EmB
I got demons (Josh we know that you got demons).
CB
They been schemin', plottin' on my head and they control my feelins'.
EmB
They make death sound so appealin'
CB
but I keep on movin' 'cause I don't wanna give up.
[Part 7]
EmB
I been workin' I been zonin', I been craftin' up this masterpiece,
CB
is it time where I top everyone that's out here passin' me?
EmB
You want the old Josh, I think we found him, shook his cage
C N.C.
and set him loose 'bout to take over, they just don't have a clue, yeah.
[Part 8]
Em
Thought I was done, that was just the beginnin',
B
I'm takin' my sound and now I'm reinventin' it.
C
Push my limits, said no more gimmicks,
B
I'm treatin' my music like my final minutes.
EmB
Until I hit that self destruct, this is my only motive,
C N.C.
gotta be focused, I'm locked and loaded, explosive, I'm so devoted.
[Part 9]
Em B N.C.
You said that you wanna break rap, I been there (already done that),
CB
but they would never care if you never read or say somethin'.
EmB
Never been through the mud, never read your day once,
C N.C.
tell you that you changed up, 'cause you got your pay up.
[Part 10]
EmB
And as I been climbin' the ladder, circle gets smaller,
CB
I'm sadder, enemies spawnin', I'm flattered but I guess none of it matters
EmB
Feels like I don't have no one, around me to tell me that
CB
I been messin' up, so I just rely upon myself to learn.
[Part 11]
EmB
There's lessons of countin' my blessins', countin' money is like
CB
countin' my stresses, less I got of one, the less I got of the other.
EmB
My demons pullin' me under, so, guess I'm just testin' the suffer,
CB
rather not be great, 'cause all the great ones plunder.
[Outro 1]
EmBC
It's easier to get high, it's easier to let go of the
EmBC
things that hurt you again.
EmBC
It's easier to get drunk, it's easier to drink up
EmBC
when your pain goes on, now I know.
