[Verse 1]

2 AM, they ran out of lemonade

So I shot that vodka straight, anyway

She came in, missin' bottle off the shelf

I can't drink this by myself, sit with me, babe

Then I started laughin'

Like it was funny, but it really ain't funny, uh


[Chorus]

Take me home, don't shut me out

It's easier to leave me down here on the ground

Take me home, baby, I'm fucked up now

I know it's easier to leave me down here on the ground


[Post-Chorus]

' Cause enough is enough

I can't stand up

I can't stand, can't stand, 'causе enough is enough


[Verse 2]

Long nights in the city of sin

Thеy said I pick fights that I won't ever win

I got a bad bitch that'll bring all her friends

But when I'm with you it's like I'm livin' again

And baby, I'm shit-faced sittin' on the sidewalk

Ain't nobody listenin' when I talk

I fall down and laugh, but it really ain't funny, uh


[Chorus]

Take me home, don't shut me out

It's easier to leave me down here on the ground

Take me home, baby, I'm fucked up now

I know it's easier to leave me down here on the ground


[Post-Chorus]

' Cause enough is enough (Shut me out)

I can't stand up (I, I)

I can't stand, can't stand, 'cause enough is enough (I, I)

Hah, hah, I can't stand up

Ah-ah-ah, I, I can't stand, can't stand


[Outro]

2 AM, they ran out of lemonade

So I shot that vodka straight, anyway (Ooh)

Post is describing the tendency for us to laugh off – and thus minimize – the ways we hurt ourselves and our loved ones. Here he describes himself as laughing while in the situation, but is able to see that it’s not funny when he sobers up and reflects on his actions.

‘Shit-faced’ is often a term used to describe the point at which you have consumed so much alcohol, that you are incoherent; thus why he is sitting on the sidewalk as he is unawre of his surroundings.

Austin sings about he’s tryna lose the addiction but he couldn’t

When drinking, Austin’s mind goes to the only girl that matters. Whether it’s the girl described in the first verse or possibly his ex Ashlen Diaz, we can only speculate. “In wine, there is truth” or in this case, in “vodka straight.”

It can also be assumed that this Vegas drinking binge took place in the past since Post is now a father and is taking much better care of his health.
