Part I - "Lit"


[Produced by Danamic]


[Verse 1]

Pre-drinking, I been peaking

And I'm on a high that I been seeking

Hard week, don't matter

Downing shit to make me feel better

I been suffocating on ordinary nothingness

Society smothering & choking up my asophogus

I been going crazy, I don't know which way to turn

And I yet yearn to be so drunk I cannot speak or slur

So I, down the vodka, couple shots

Got a bit of Whiskey and some Jägerbombs

I used to preach about sobriety

So far gone away from what the eye can see

But I got pain and I got problems

And I lost the way to solve em


[Bridge]

Money in my bank account

All in, ball out, getting lit


[Hook]

We getting lit

We getting lit

Letting it hit

(x4)


[Verse 2]

How the fuck did I get here?

Blacking out I got no fear

Of another blackout & another blackout

Give me one more & I'ma tap out

But another drink is a short cut

To not being down but i won't own up

Cause weakness I don't need that

Ignorance is bliss believe that

I'm a self centred asshole

No glass ever half full

And this is how I wanna be

Honestly with no modesty

But I'm lying about crying

Some days I feel like dying

So vulnerable, intolerable

Incomprehensible, inhonourable

Ignorant to myself & my issues

Verbal in my disuse, of alcohol

To numb my soul to feel whole

Motherfucker telling me I got no control

But I know myself and I know who I am

Even if I don't recognise that I'm a sham

A hypocrite, I talk shit, and I know it

Fall out, brawl out

Friends going all out

I don't listen, & I care less

I been venting that I feel stress

Heartbreak, mental duress

Dissatisfaction, so I need a distraction

Down the vodka, up the music

Highs and lows in life this is how I do it


[Bridge + Hook]


[Verse 3]

Yeah, Im a drunk mess

Sanity digress

My vision's blurry right mind regress

I agress at my best friends

Drinking shots to feel my pain less

Vicious cycle, I feel spiteful

Cause I act a fool but think I'm insightful

I got too much on my plate

And too much beef puttin me at stake

What a deadly combination, when you wanna be great

For fuck sake

I find a purity in my insecurity

Imagination's fuel for me

And my thoughts lead to victory

But I'm stifling my creativity

Cause of a midlife crisis at 18

Looking both ways on a one way street

My trust is fucked up

Looking like I just woke up

Light's a blur, music's a cure

So gone I cannot concur

Where the fuck I am, Yeah

I worry about what people think

So I sink into my drink

Money being spent like I ain't living

People taking advantage but ain't nobody giving

I'm forgetting the words to raps

Puttin every person on blast

Cos everytime it's going good it never seems to last

Leading to friends abandoning

Emotion trafficking

Drinking to get past what is happening

Mixing drinks in my cup

To get a little lit, too turned up

Wanna cry over why I'm hurt

But my energy's burnt

Cause it was lit

Part II - "Sanctuary (Interlude)"


[Produced by Danamic]


[Verse]

Sanctuary, the place that I feel safe

Where life don't have an expiry date

The heaven and the hell are rolling all into one

This music, club life, its numb the pain for fun

Where I dance with a stranger thinking they are a friend

But then I walk out to find there is no connection

The bright light in the black so I dont see what I lack

My confidence on 100 until the lights come back

The drop and the height of it begins to slowly disorientate

I go from dancing with the gang to trying to floor my mate

I'm intoxicating off of the booze, bright lights and the music

Taking my mind, off the pain and how I got through it

The deeper I go the more shallow it seems gets

Nothing but bad decisions and pained regrets

But when I'm thinking of the good times I love the club

And I keep forgetting that i was out of my mind drunk

But that's the entry fee to this sanctuary

Where all we wanna do is be a slave to the rhythm and try to be free

Free our mind and our bodies whilst forgetting about the shackles

Trynna forget about the big bad world & all the issues it tackles

Time to take away the nostalgia filter on my life

And be honest about the events and how i feel, alright
