[Part 1]
                Em                 
I started bein' honest with myself,
        B
 havin' conversations that weren't
     C                             
very easy, I need help, three words
 B
 never thought I'd speak.
            Em                     
But here we are, Xanax bars, 
  B
started poppin' them to cope,
           C                       
then got addicted, started thinkin'
          B
 that I'd probably die alone.

[Part 2]
         Em                      
See this life is way too fast for 
         B
me, I'm in the same career
              C                 
where half my colleagues turn to 
             B
casualties,   know y'all got those 
R.I.P.
Em                                
Tweets up in the drafts, ready to 
B
go, for the moment
       C                        
that I finally take too much and 
     B
overdose.

[Part 3]
                         Em     
Always thinkin' 'bout my father, 
                   B
burstin' into my apartment,
                     C
just to see his only son overdosin' 
on the carpet.
                       Em       
Flashin' back to every memory of 
              B
when I was a kid
                       C
while he makes a final speech before
 he closes up the lid.

[Part 4]
           Em                      
I couldn't do it anymore, flush the
 B
 rest and went to war
            C                   
I'm gettin' sober, I'm takin' my 
       B
spot, back and shut the door
        Em                         
on my addiction, I hope you listen  
B
 'cause everything I write
     C                              
 N.C.
from here on out is my prescription.
 Yeah, that's the mission.

[Part 5]
         Em                     
All this fame is overrated, over 
 B

          C                     
all these fake people started to 
    B
surround me and my friends.
        Em                        
I don't need that energy, I don't 
B
let those demons in,
        C                          
N.C.
finally startin' therapy, now it's 
time to reinvent, uh.

[Part 6]
Em              B
  I got demons (Josh we know that 
you got demons).
          C                        
They been schemin', plottin' on my 
         B
head and they control my feelins'.
          Em                       B
They make death sound so appealin'
                      C            
but I keep on movin' 'cause I don't
            B
 wanna give up.

[Part 7]
       Em                          
I been workin' I been zonin', I 
  B
been craftin' up this masterpiece,
C                           B
is it time where I top everyone 
that's out here passin' me?
    Em                            
You want the old Josh, I think we 
B
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.
  Em                               
Until I hit that self destruct, 
  B
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),
    C                           
but they would never care if you 
 B
never read or say somethin'.
Em                          B
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]
    Em                             
And as I been climbin' the ladder, 
B
circle gets smaller,
            C                    
I'm sadder, enemies spawnin', I'm 
           B
flattered but I guess none of it 
matters
Em                            
Feels like I don't have no one, 
   B
around me to tell me that
       C                       B
I been messin' up, so I just rely 
upon myself to learn.

[Part 11]
        Em                    
There's lessons of countin' my 
            B
blessins', countin' money is like
            C                      
countin' my stresses, less I got of
          B
 one, the less I got of the other.
   Em                          
My demons pullin' me under, so, 
 B
guess I'm just testin' the suffer,
C                                 
rather not be great, 'cause all 
  B
the great ones plunder.

[Outro 1]
Em               B         C
  It's easier to get high,   it's 
easier to let go of the
Em               B            C
things that hurt   you again.
Em                B          C
   It's easier to get drunk,   it's 
easier to drink up
          Em            B     
when your pain goes on,   now I 
       C
know.
