[Verse 1]

Yo I'm drownin' in a bottle of gin

Lookin back at what it all couldn't been

A fallen angel from the tallest limb, the tree of life

I see the fight is all within, we can't abolish all our sins

The fear of the past, won't get you near to the future

Playin the bad guy worried that the hero might shoot ya

Playing games with the devil try and stay on my level

Sinkin' lower than dirt, and diggin' graves with the shovel

It's too late, feel encaged in this flesh vessel

Blow up the place, and then wait for the dust to settle

You don't know what has caused mе to be this way

How that when you see the light i see thе gray

Watchin people try and take my dream away yo I won't have it

When I see something that I want and need I go grab it

Told you that I don't see the breaks there's no traffic

People try and hold me back, either way I go past it


[Chorus]

Drownin, drownin, you don't know the type of pain I

Found in, found in, my life still I try and climb the

Mountain, mountain, see I been drownin' all my whole life

Lord knows that I've been

Drownin, drownin, you don't know the type of pain I

Found in, found in, my life still I try and climb the

Mountain, mountain, see I been drownin' all my whole life

Yeah


[Verse 2]

I see the more that people stare at me the less that they listen

Saying that I need therapy, I question the system

I think it's rare for me to get their opinions

I'm just here to speak and proud to say that I'm blessed to be different

Still I get down on myself, and I hate when I'm wrong

Gettin' critical of lines in the middle of making a song

Can't stay where I belong, conquer the world like Genghis Khan

And there's time I can't take it I feel I been waiting to long

Fallin' down I can't get uop, I need a ladder

Til I meet a snake and then they got me slidin' down even faster

What's the key to happiness when you've been beaten, battered, badly

This is evil at it's nastiest

I'm trin to pass the torch to the next generation

Still I got some enemies hatin'

You supposed to learn these lessons in trainin

The dedication, tryin' to reach the summit you can king me with the crown

Still these crabs in the bucket try bringin' me down, I'm


[Chorus]

Drownin, drownin, you don't know the type of pain I

Found in, found in, my life still I try and climb the

Mountain, mountain, see I been drownin' all my whole life

Lord knows that I've been

Drownin, drownin, you don't know the type of pain I

Found in, found in, my life still I try and climb the

Mountain, mountain, see I been drownin' all my whole life

Yeah


[Chorus]

Drownin, drownin, you don't know the type of pain I

Found in, found in, my life still I try and climb the

Mountain, mountain, see I been drownin' all my whole life

Lord knows that I've been

Drownin, drownin, you don't know the type of pain I

Found in, found in, my life still I try and climb the

Mountain, mountain, see I been drownin' all my whole life

Yeah
