Drowning
[Verse 1: Blake Whiteley]
Yeah, ayy
Why are sunny days filled with rain?
How come every good moment followed up with pain?
I'm so down and sick and tired of feeling so sick and tired
I hope I can be the one to say I overcame
Numb me now, fill my body up with novocaine
I'm tryna see life in a different frame
They want to put me in a box
But it's nearly impossible, no there ain't no way to do it
'Cause I'm already stuck in my brain
I gotta disconnect to connect with you again
Got so many thoughts, I don't know what to do with them
So many ways to go, I don't even know where to begin
Help me choose the one that's leading to you in the end
I wanna smile but I feel like it's all pretend
Laying undercover, I can see the storm rolling in
I got too much time on my hands, heck of a spot to be in
No I'm not gon' break but God I know you see I'm starting to bend
[Chorus: The Letter Black]
Take me back
I'm crashing on my knees
I'm drowning, I'm drowning
So low without you
Take me back
I know you're all I need
I'm drowning, I'm drowning
So low without you
Take me back
[Verse 2: Blake Whiteley]
I don't wanna write a sad song
In a valley but I hope it doesn't last long
Got this passion inside me that is mad strong
I'm just another rap artist that you labels had to pass on
Why am I the one you had to turn your back on
I gave you grace even though I know you're that wrong
What could have been is something I'm looking back on
Now I don't know if we could ever get back that bond
But that's okay cause I keep pressing on
And the Holy Spirit inside of me is making me strong
I'm seeing everything that is isn't that all along
I give it to God and He making it right stead of writing my wrongs
In the songs we like to talk about the pain and insecurity
Heartache, oh God I need surgery
'Cause everything in my head was just hurting me
Hoping they hear you it doesn't matter if they heard of me
[Chorus: The Letter Black]
Take me back
I'm crashing on my knees
I'm drowning, I'm drowning
So low without you
Take me back
I know you're all I need
I'm drowning, I'm drowning
So low without you
Take me back
[Bridge: The Letter Black]
The image of who you see is not who I am
You've made me for so much more
I'm so much more
[Chorus: The Letter Black and Blake Whiteley]
(Take me back)
I'm crashing on my knees
I'm drowning, I'm drowning
So low without you (yeah)
Take me back (ayy)
I know you're all I need
I'm drowning, I'm drowning (Yeah, know I'm not [?])
So low without you (You say I'm sorry again)
Take me back
I'm crashing on my knees
I'm drowning, I'm drowning
So low without you
Take me back
I know you're all I need
I'm drowning, I'm drowning
So low without you
Take me back
