"Sink Or Swim" lyrics
"You're never gonna make it"
The voice inside keeps telling me
Every friendship that I did have
I ruined that disappointment, gotta be
Why life gotta be so hard
When did I become so numb?
There's a reason I made it is this far
But these old habits I can never outrun
Things just ain't what it used to be
To express myself write poetry
I think I feel stuck like gravity
Keeps pulling me down, that's constantly
All the good things gone far as I can see
Without THC can't fall asleep
I pray that one day my mind can rest with ease
And all my demons not present like an absentee
Trying to survive, barely hanging on
Waiting for my moment, where do I belong?
Why do I push away the ones I love?
Only hurt myself
They can't
Understand where I have been
Drowning, do I sink or swim?
Get me out this hell I'm in
I'm screaming inside
But don't think anyone notices
I admit I'm scared to die
To take my life, I'm not condoning it
May have tried like once or twice
Them drugs a devilish sight
I was put here to serve a purpose
Speak my truth as I grab that mic
Anxiety has got me living on the edge
Can't explain my thoughts up inside my head
I'm hoping you'll be there when I need to vent
And to show me that you care please don't pretend
Yeah I overthink every little thing
If I had one wish I would wish for peace
Give me one more shot of that ecstasy
Like police in a drug bust I have to seize
Trying to survive, barely hanging on
Waiting for my moment, where do I belong?
Why do I push away the ones I love?
Only hurt myself
They can't
Understand where I have been
Drowning, do I sink or swim?
Get me out this hell I'm in
When they bury me 6 feet under
I just hope that I'm not forgotten
All the shit that I can't take back
But the good must stand for something
Trying to survive, barely hanging on
Waiting for my moment, where do I belong?
Why do I push away the ones I love?
Only hurt myself
They can't
Understand where I have been
Drowning, do I sink or swim?
Get me out this hell I'm in
The voice inside keeps telling me
Every friendship that I did have
I ruined that disappointment, gotta be
Why life gotta be so hard
When did I become so numb?
There's a reason I made it is this far
But these old habits I can never outrun
Things just ain't what it used to be
To express myself write poetry
I think I feel stuck like gravity
Keeps pulling me down, that's constantly
All the good things gone far as I can see
Without THC can't fall asleep
I pray that one day my mind can rest with ease
And all my demons not present like an absentee
Trying to survive, barely hanging on
Waiting for my moment, where do I belong?
Why do I push away the ones I love?
Only hurt myself
They can't
Understand where I have been
Drowning, do I sink or swim?
Get me out this hell I'm in
I'm screaming inside
But don't think anyone notices
I admit I'm scared to die
To take my life, I'm not condoning it
May have tried like once or twice
Them drugs a devilish sight
I was put here to serve a purpose
Speak my truth as I grab that mic
Anxiety has got me living on the edge

I'm hoping you'll be there when I need to vent
And to show me that you care please don't pretend
Yeah I overthink every little thing

Give me one more shot of that ecstasy
Like police in a drug bust I have to seize
Trying to survive, barely hanging on
Waiting for my moment, where do I belong?
Why do I push away the ones I love?
Only hurt myself

Understand where I have been
Drowning, do I sink or swim?
Get me out this hell I'm in

But the good must stand for something
Trying to survive, barely hanging on
Waiting for my moment, where do I belong?
Why do I push away the ones I love?
Only hurt myself
They can't
Understand where I have been
Drowning, do I sink or swim?
Get me out this hell I'm in
