(Chorus)

I just need to try and play it cool for a minute

Stress, anxiety a couple pools that I swim in

I just need to find out what to do

Because I'm drowning I'm drowning

I just need to try and play it cool for a minute

Stress, anxiety a couple pools that I swim in

I just need to find out what to do

Because I'm drowning, I'm drowning

(Bridge)

Hold on

Can I please speak my truth

I don't wanna worry

I just wanna keep my youth

(Verse 1)

I grew up around some people who was spending they time in the system

Living in debt

Cashing minimum checks

Trying to get the best out the shit that's given

Everyday stress

Trying to invest

But sabotaged by the competition

Making way less

Hoping that what's next is something else that's a little bit different

And I hear

And that's what's feared

I pray my dreams will not be partitioned

From what's real

And all my years

Kinda tell me that I ain't shit

And I won't ever get to that instance

When I turn into one they'll listen

So I drown inside my dissension

No attention

Lack of commitment and

(Chorus)

I just need to try and play it cool for a minute

Stress, anxiety a couple pools that I swim in

I just need to find out what to do

Because I'm drowning I'm drowning

I just need to try and play it cool for a minute

Stress, anxiety a couple pools that I swim in

I just need to find out what to do

Because I'm drowning, I'm drowning

(Verse 2)

As I see all these big bills

Higher the amount

Mixed with the cheap thrills

And a fear of growing up

Going up a steep hill

And some liquor in a cup

Just for the detail

Hoping that my life don't turn like them

And everything I've done don't come back in

All these worried thoughts stuck in my head

All sing like a choir and the lyrics like a Hymn

You gon' mess up and fall down

And be just like them

Do not worry these cycles

Repeating again

I can tell that you trust me

Believe what I say

You won't turn out no better

You still ain't shit Zey

(Bridge)

Hold on

Can I please speak my truth

I don't wanna worry

I just wanna keep my youth

(Chorus)

I just need to try and play it cool for a minute

Stress, anxiety a couple pools that I swim in

I just need to find out what to do

Because I'm drowning I'm drowning

I just need to try and play it cool for a minute

Stress, anxiety a couple pools that I swim in

I just need to find out what to do

Because I'm drowning, I'm drowning
