[Verse 1]

It's hard to be sober but it's easy to be bent

When you got some extra money and don't need it for the rent

Got a girlfriend now that I secretly resent

'Cause she takes up all the time that I previously spent on myself

And girls just wanna have fun

And she be all fun when her job is done

But my job is another thing, 24/7 hustling

She wanting to do a couple things, cuddling

I like to watch movies, I really fucking do

But I can't stop moving just 'cause I fell in love with you

And now I'm just an irritable bastard

Like my homie E said a man can't serve two masters

And I've got a third one chillin' in my stomach

A little leprechaun screaming "Alcohol, I want it"

And he never ever shut up, he says, "Come on, keep it coming"

And the alcohol goes along with the music and the women

So I black out on the regular

And it's rare I'm a end of the night rememberer

Goddamn, I'm a drunken mess

Maybe that's why I'm always fucking depressed

[Chorus]

I'm doing damage

Yeah, I'm doing damage

To my body and mind, I'm doing damage

Call the doctor, he'll probably find I'm doing damage

[Verse 2]

My health just ain't what it used to be

'Cause I done smoked a packed of cigarettes a day since I hit puberty

And stupidly, I keep on going and buying 'em

And my lungs probably got some cancer growing inside of 'em

And it be affecting how I breathe at times

I hit playback, hear myself wheeze between the lines

I could probably quit if I was thinking clear

But my willpower goes out the window soon as I start drinking beer

And every freakin' year I got the same resolutions

January second I be making excuses

The leprechaun is a dangerous nuisance

Who sips champagne while he angrily two steps

I got a deal now, which should be essential

To straighten up my act and live up to my potential

But I just can't taste that success

Maybe that's why I'm always fucking depressed

[Chorus]

I'm doing damage

Yeah, man, I'm doing damage

It's probably gonna catch up soon, I'm doing damage

Call the doctor, I need a checkup soon, I'm doing damage

Bridge

[Bridge]

I didn't wanna be this way

Didn't wanna get like this every day

But my formula's something that I can't touch

'Cause regardless I come through in the clutch

I come through in the clutch, I come through in the clutch

[Verse 3]

I am too much for you ducks to touch, I am illustrious

I am a bad motherfucker and I truly believe that

But I gave some shit up to achieve that

Like my family and my friends, they don't call me anymore

'Cause when they would call I would always hit ignore

I was always self-absorbed with absorbing myself

I drink it up, drink it up, drink it up 'til there's no more of myself

And I don't value my father and my mother enough

I don't value the company of others enough

And human interaction is an essential part of happiness I believe

And that's what I've been rapping to achieve

And I did it in a way 'cause I'm in love with this shit

But alcoholism and music something that comes with this shit

When you're living for yourself, it's a lonely existence

And if you talk to yourself, you gon' be the only one listening

And that about sums it up

I'm out of gin and I really want another cup

So I'm out, to the store I guess

'Cause that's where I go when I'm fucking depressed

I'm doing damage
