[Chorus: Evan Michael Green]

I shouldn’t have to try so hard just to see a smile

Water so deep I’m about to drown

When I wanna rise I just sink back down

So hard to breathe right now

Right now

Right now

[Verse One: Young L3x]

I been dealing with depression

I’m guessing that’s a big confession

Cus niggas don’t show emotions

They hide and rather suppress em

I been lacking aggression and passion, lacking a motive

I been down in the dumps I’m trumped, not able to focus

Ok I’m thinking and analyzing

Stressing what’s unnecessary

I should know better cus pain is only temporary

I’m trynna be legendary, touch paper like secretaries

Happiness the motive now everything is secondary

Sinking and I’m drowning

When I overcome a hill I walk into a mountain

My eyes drop water like a fountain

I took so many L’s but who’s counting

To calculate my L’s I might need an accountant

I’m overwhelmed with emotion sinking in the ocean

Can’t float or swim, would I shine again?

Can’t rise or win, would I shine again?

I feel like I will never ever shine again

[Chorus: Evan Michael Green]

I shouldn’t have to try so hard just to see a smile

Water so deep I’m about to drown

When I wanna rise I just sink back down

So hard to breathe right now

Right now

Right now

[Verse Two: Young L3x]

Never sipping champagne cus it’s hard to celebrate

I try to run from my demons but they chase

I’m hardly staying above water as I’m gasping for air

In a puddle of tears and the feeling that nobody cares

Why is it so hard to crack a smile or feel some joy?

Put your ear to my heart; tell me do you hear noise?

Cus it’s hard to breathe right now are my lungs collapsing

Feel like my soul is dying, hurry go get a casket

This pain I deal with I try but I can’t mask it

So let a mortician dress me who loves fly fashion

I can’t fight the devil he won’t stop harassing

I can’t fight the devil he won’t stop attacking

I’m not lying, I’m dying yea my time is passing

If you ever saw me smiling well I was acting

Yea I know I’m cracking and the devils laughing

And all I see is water now like I’m fasting

I’m drowning
