smiling at times on the outside
But what nobody seems to understand
Is how I'm stressing all the damn time
And something just keeps on dragging me down
Dragging me down
Dark road spinning till I'm sick, I can't take it
I feel a curse or a demon, it feel like I can't shake it
I can't sleep, too many dreams that I'm chasing, wait
It's too much, I feel like I'm breaking
I can't chase these dreams, feel like it's hurting me
Put 'em on the backburner providing for the family
All this drama starts to get to me
Bills stacking up, I'm screaming but ain't nobody listening
I been looking, searching, tryna find a way out
But every corner signpost telling me stay out
Can't I just be me? I feel like I can't breathe
Lord I'm begging for your help, got me on my knees
It's like I'm treading water in the middle of the ocean
Tears falling, my body full of emotion
Watching time tick, the walls close in
I just smile and pray that nobody notice
I been smiling at times on the outside
But what nobody seems to understand
Is how I'm stressing all the damn time
I feel like I'm fighting who I am
I just want 'em to see that this isn't me
I wanna break the chains that lock me down
I just wanna believe, just wanna be free
But something just keeps on dragging me down
Dragging me down
??? demons and facing the fear
Every time that I'm sleeping the nightmares appear
Stuck in the smoke saying it's clear
I heard God whisper that Satan is near
Rolling coaster of life
Got me smoking all night
Got me praying for ???
'Cause Lord I feel hopeless and know that I'm right
???
But I do nothing to help make it change
I've gotten used to the thunder and rain
I need to stop with my gluttonous ways (???)
Don't you know that I'm a broken soul?
I had vices in my life of which that I had no control
I keep strolling down this lonely road
I do not complain because it's all I know
I done lost some family to an overdose
Help me Father, Son and Holy Ghost
Life keeps dragging me down
It's just what's happening now
It's been a while since I was flashing a smile
Roll up another one and pass it around
Smoking with such a passionate sound, damn
I been smiling at times on the outside
But what nobody seems to understand
Is how I'm stressing all the damn time
I feel like I'm fighting who I am
I just want 'em to see that this isn't me
I wanna break the chains that lock me down
I just wanna believe, just wanna be free
But something just keeps on dragging me down
Dragging me down
