Rock Bottom

(album: Only When We're Naked - 2017)

[Wretch 32:]
Next time I'm rock bottom, I'mma take them rocks
And slingshot them to the top and pray the rain gon' stop
Raining on me
Raining on me

[Zak Abel:]
I push the window up
The rain is pouring down
Watching the smoke rings rising
The nights don't give enough
The days are full of clouds
Keep watch for the silver lining

I say "hi" to the world
I love the way you turn
I say "hi" to the heavens
Don't let me burn in this hellhole
I've suffered here for so long

I hit rock bottom
The pressure's got me sweating
I hit rock bottom
The lessons that I'm testing
I hit rock bottom
Got caught in that whirlwind
There's rubble on my soul
But there's no where left to fall
I hit rock bottom
I hit rock bottom
I hit rock bottom

The heavy weather blows
Candles flicker out
I keep on striking matches
I know I'm not alone
And yeah I've got my doubts
But I still believe in magic

I say "hi" to the world
I love the way you turn
I say "hi" to the heavens
Don't let me burn in this hellhole
I've suffered here for so long

I hit rock bottom
The pressure's got me sweating
I hit rock bottom
The lessons that I'm testing
I hit rock bottom
Got caught in that whirlwind
There's rubble on my soul
There's no where left to fall
I hit rock bottom
I hit rock bottom
I hit rock bottom

[Wretch 32:]
I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place
I pray me and my faith don't part ways
A single mother going through some heartache
There's another path if you part ways
Been rock bottom, I was selling rocks at the bottom
Pray my karma don't bring me to my coffin
I could've been carried by six [?] wrong'uns
Instead I brought twelve men through and gave them knowledge
That's power to the people
I got more fire and I'm lethal
Ever seen a flower in a [?]
Blossom like the stars in the Caribbean, they're gutter kids
Still got more morals than everyone in the government
I'm selling self-esteem but [?] rap
'Cause when your voice is underground you don't get lower than that
Nah, nah
So bad, we sold them the goods
Cause when they try to pull you down your only option is push

[Zak Abel:]
I say "hi" to the world
I love the way you turn
I say "hi" to the heavens
Don't let me burn in this hell
Oh, I suffered here for so long
I hit rock bottom
