[Verse 1 - Cayden]

Patience is a virtue, complacency a flaw

Working until the sun rise, don't think I'll sleep at all

Sitting by the phone and I'm waiting on your call

We all lose our Honor in the Age of the Fall

And I'm falling, hold up, hold up, I'm balling

Life is a gamble and tonight I'm going all in

And money can't solve it, but yes it could help

First we can't afford our bills, now we can't afford our Health

How the fuck could you say that you Care? I'm holding on by a thread

If they had it their way, then the poor would be dead

Man, I'm losing my head; I need to do and not try

'Cause I'm 23 ain't done shit, she's 21 and died

I lost a couple friends, had a fallout over money

'Cause this shit ain't Philadelphia, these skies ain't Always Sunny

And I ain't running from nothing, but my past's catching up to me

The public doesn't care about recovery (recovery)


[Chorus - Cayden]

We're going down fast

Enjoy this while you can, 'cause the high won't last

I'm driving until I crash

'Cause I can't keep living in the past

Quicksand, baby

We're going down fast

Enjoy this while you can, 'cause the high won't last

I'm driving until I crash

'Cause I can't keep living in the past

Quicksand, baby


[Verse 2 - Cayden]

The baby needs pampers, daddy needs answers

'Cause everybody in the family seems to get cancer

And those who survive will one day die

The Walking Dead is fiction 'cause the sickness is alive

I've been waiting for this moment, need atonement for my sins

Yeah, I'm stuck between the place where failure ends and success begins

I've been overdrawn for so damn long

That this money's like Drake, girl, it's So Far Gone

I've been feeling like a mother fucking villain, I guess

'Cause I've been blowing up the blogs with every Word that I Press

Holding on to the past in my heart, it's like I'm hoarding

So we drown it out with liquor and feel alive, it's like we're water boarding

Short skirts, no panties, women feel important

But I've got my Pride and Glory, now I feel like Edward Norton

Yeah, the sound of life's distorted, vision clouded, drugs are snorted

Now I'm reaching out for anything, loving girls with wedding rings

Damn…


[Chorus - Cayden]

We're going down fast

Enjoy this while you can, 'cause the high won't last

I'm driving until I crash

'Cause I can't keep living in the past

Quicksand, baby

We're going down fast

Enjoy this while you can, 'cause the high won't last

I'm driving until I crash

'Cause I can't keep living in the past

Quicksand, baby


[Outro - Cayden]

Quicksand, baby...

Quicksand, baby...

Quicksand, baby...

Hey, hey...
