low down

(album: zero experience - 2023)

I think I messed with the wrong demons inside my head
'Cause it just seems all they wanna get is revenge
Our people be the death of me, they should be my therapy
My mother told me life would be fun

I'm in the deep end it's dark and it's scary in here
Treading water is hard when you're chained to the pier
It's my mother she loves me and it feels (Oh, I fear)
I promise you one day this will all disappear
(This will all disappear)

I've been on a low down, lowkey for a while now
Read between the lines you might see me in the background
Hold out my hand for you
I've been on a low, low, low, low, low
I've been on a low, low, low, low, low

Give me a substance designed to enlighten my mind
Consequences are fine as long as I'm high
If the needle, it feeds me, I get what I want
Stumbled on the place I belong
That's just the moment in time, but the feeling will end
I'm a train wreck, my friends say I'm a beautiful mess
But they lie all the time and they swear they know best
They don't feel the weight of the world on their chest

I've been on a low down, lowkey for a while now
Read between the lines you might see me in the background
Hold out my hand for you
I've been on a low, low, low, low, low
I've been on a low, low, low, low, low

Hold out my hand
(Oh yeah, oh, oh, oh yeah)
Hold out my hand (Oh yeah)
I've been on a low, low, low, low, low
I've been on a low, low, low, low, low
(Oh yeah, oh, oh, oh yeah)
