LYRICS:
Am I losing my mind?
Am I losing my mind?
Maybe
Am I losing my mind?
Am I losing my mind?
Maybe

Once upon a time in the suburbs
The fog was thick and I was feeling twisted
I had a friend doing lines with a lover
And another was sick throwing up in the kitchen
We had Mac Dre on
We made a club out the living room, turn the bass up
We had Mac Dre on
Our sun was the moon, our day started at dusk

There was something about it that I think I loved, though
Something ‘bout the fights in the street made the blood flow
Something about the lights from police when the sun rose
Seeing red and blue lights hit the blunt smoke
There was some kinda home in it
Like in the moment, drunk and stoned, we were owning it
Like we sunk so low we painted hell gold
And we faked like our wings weren’t broken

Am I losing my mind?
Am I losing my mind?
Maybe
Am I losing my mind?
Am I losing my mind?
Maybe

Once upon a time in the suburbs
I found freedom in my cup of who gives a fuck
I was mending a mind full of gutters
With a dream I’d get inside through a doorway made of slime
We had Young Curt on
Get me fucked up, let’s burn one
We had Young Curt on
‘Till the sun’s up, I’m another person

It’s like I found suicide in the night
To grab another drink was to slide in the knife
To take another hit was a .9 to the mind
and I’d lie like - boy, this the time of my life
So gimme that shot, yeah, I’m trynna get fucked up
Gimme a broad, yeah, I’m trynna get sucked up
I wanna be gone like one drip to the sea
‘Till dawn, I’ll forget that I’m me

Am I losing my mind?
Am I losing my mind?
Maybe
Am I losing my mind?
Am I losing my mind?
Maybe

LYRICS:
Oh, I feel like I made it outa hell
Like I’d been living in somebody else’s shell
It was like no choice I made was my own
It was like my mind was a slave
to somebody else’s hopes
So this is me setting me free
This the scene where the sunshine - it covers me
And to anything or anyone who’s cut me deep
I’ll say this with a gun up to your cheek

I’ma press undo
On all you’ve said
On all this blood
I’ma reclaim what you took
With every breath
Left in these lungs
I’ma let myself live good
(Live good)
(Live good)
(Live good)
I’ma let myself live good

I’m not what you say
I’m a bouquet
I’m a soufflé with a fade
I’ve gone Dufresne through the mud
And yeah, I’m Bruce Wayne with the pain
but if you’re playin’
I can be a villain with a cape on - woo!
I don’t got a limit to my name
I’ma kill it like I’m living in a dream as I’m making it up
‘Till I’m in a villa with a maid sippin’ lemonade
I’ma turn pain into pay and a view

I’m feeling my light
I’m feeling awake
You can’t take what’s mine
I don’t think about you
I’m feeling my light
I’m feeling awake
You can’t take what’s mine

So I’ma press undo
On all you’ve said
On all this blood
I’ma reclaim what you took
With every breath
Left in these lungs
I’ma let myself live good
(Live good)
(Live good)
(Live good)
I’ma let myself live good

I’ma let myself live good
I’ma let myself live good
I let myself live good

Live Good

LYRICS:
Sometimes you hide when shaken up
You’ll say I’m fine and fake it
You’ll say I’m good
But them eyes ain’t lying
You’ve said the dreams you chase can look
So out of reach you hate them
You’ll say I’m good
While your mind is violent
And since I’ve known you I’ve known
You were prone to shame when you’re aching
I think you cope all alone
As you hope its a phase
And since I know that you won’t
tell me all of your pain when you’re aching
Listen close this a note
that I wrote for your bad days

You’re gonna find a way
You’re gonna make it through
You’ll see it someday
All this made a better you
You’re gonna find a way
You’re gonna make it through
You’ll see it someday
All this made a better you

Keep this note — t’s a paper cup
Sip when your hope has faded
When you’re feeling no good
When your light ain’t shinin’
I’ve seen you reach so far you rip
Hidden seams you try to stitch as no one looks
I think you’d die in silence
And since I’ve known you I’ve known
You were prone to shame when you’re aching
I think you cope all alone
As you hope its a phase
And since I know that you won’t
tell me all of your pain when you’re aching
Listen close this a note
that I wrote for your bad days

You’re gonna find a way
You’re gonna make it through
You’ll see it someday
All this made a better you
You’re gonna find a way
You’re gonna make it through
You’ll see it someday
All this made a better you

You’re gonna find a way
You’re gonna make it through
You’ll see it someday
All this made a better you
You’re gonna find a way
You’re gonna make it through
You’ll see it someday
All this made a better you

Listen close this a note that I wrote for your
Listen close this a note that I wrote for your bad days

LYRICS:

No one gave me shit
I worked for this
At this point I’m just
done with encouragement
You say talented
I say calluses
I’m tasting my blood just pronouncing it
Since Fairfield days
The beats I made
I may have quit drinking but dream the same

I was told this the moon
Like good luck, Mr. Rocket Shoes

And they ask me why you workin’
All days of the week
To get somewhere you’ll never reach

I’ve been wishin’ for better so long
I guess I’m sick of wishing in by bed alone
If those wishes were weapons
Their full metal jackets are stuck
So fuck wishin’, I’m here with a gun
Jiminy Cricket never made me anyone
All my clips are full of bitterness
And I’m coming for you
I’ma bloom like a wicked magnolia

I’m not stoppin’ this
Just the opposite
I won’t drop when most people need oxygen
Since the green Lexus
Since the weed excess
Since the drink was my treatment for depression
Man, my lips been blue
Fuck what stitches do
I’ll put red on this mic like it’s ’92

I was told this the moon
Like good luck, Mr. Rocket Shoes

And they ask me why you workin’
All days of the week
Toward something you’ll never be

I’ve been wishin’ for better so long
I guess I’m sick of wishing in by bed alone
If those wishes were weapons
Their full metal jackets are stuck
So fuck wishin’, I’m here with a gun
Jiminy Cricket never made me anyone
All my clips are full of bitterness
And I’m coming for you
I’ma bloom like a wicked magnolia

Until I’m taken by weeds
My will is my leprosy
Instead of wounds that scrape the sheets
I’ve got no turn back in me
So set glass beneath my feet
Take the last breath that I need
To meet what glows beyond my reach
I’ll become a tragedy

There’s is no hell that spells retreat
Fuck your gravity
This to the grave
This to the grave

LYRICS:
I like it when you say my name
I like to hear it on the telephone
There’s somethin’ about it, goodness sake
It’s like your lips got watermelon on ‘em
I like it when you say my name
When we’re moving like a metronome
When your hands are on my face
It’s like my name is how you let me know

Yeah, I’m liking how this feels
Yeah, I’m liking how this feels

Like you forget what to say
Like to speak is a sin
My name is your language
Like you forget what to say
Like to speak is a sin
My name is your language 

I like it when you say my name
When it’s the morning and we’re touching toes
There’s something ‘bout the way you say it
I’m hearing love inside an envelope
I like it when you
When my lips are where your dress should go
Or when I got you by the waist
It’s like my name is how you let me know

Yeah, I’m liking how this feels
Yeah, I’m liking how this feels

Like you forget what to say
Like to speak is a sin
My name is your language
Like you forget what to say
Like to speak is a sin
My name is your language
