Imma Lie

(album: 3 Ghosts - 2019)

I've been keeping it real low, there's some things nobody knows
Leave then turn up when I go, rather just turn down at home
Drugs make me feel less alone, turn around everyone's gone
Imma always be the bad guy, I know it

Imma lie to the world, and say I ain't been popping for anxiety
And Imma lie to myself, when it goes under my tongue
That this is my sobriety
And no one has your back, unless you're on a death bed
Baby don't you cry to me
Imma lie to the world and say I ain't been popping for anxiety

Tell me how I'm supposed to stop, filling up all of these cups
When I wish someone would end this all for me
Tell me how I'm supposed to stop, taking pills till I throw up
When I think about what I have seen

It's back and forth how much I need it
Yeah my drugs are so conceited
They convince me that I'm nothing without them
How many times can I say that it feels good to get off them before there's some truth behind it?

Imma lie to the world, and say I ain't been popping for anxiety
And Imma lie to myself, when it goes under my tongue
That this is my sobriety
And no one has your back, unless you're on a death bed
Baby don't you cry to me
Imma lie to the world and say I ain't been popping for anxiety
