Westside Cast
Back at the Bottom
[Verse 1]
The doors are shut
I'm shaken up but talking tough, I'm always ready
My demons love to call my bluff
Yet not enough lies always get me
A thousand times I tried to climb
And fell behind, doubt is so heavy
I lost tonight but that's alright
That's day one

[Pre-Chorus]
And every back slide is a lesson I've learned
Every black eye showed me I could take hurt
And now I know and now I know
Every tear cried like a fire that burns
Cut burn through knives
That's another scar earned
And now I know that even though

[Chorus]
I am back at the bottom for another night
Ain't no stranger to his place
All these voices playing games
Got me back at the bottom but I see the light
I may bruise but I won't break
Lying in the dark
And it ain't a bad place to start
And it ain't a bad place to start

[Verse 2]
An empty glass, it goes so fast
And all the past comes back to haunt me
It's not the end, I begin again
It's day one

[Pre-Chorus]
And every back slide is a lesson I've learned
Every black eye showed me I could take hurt
And now I know and now I know
Every tear cried like a fire that burns
Cut burn through knives
That's another scar earned
And now I know that even though

[Chorus]
I am back at the bottom for another night
Ain't no stranger to his place
All these voices playing games
Got me back at the bottom but I see the light
I may bruise but I won't break
Lying in the dark
And it ain't a bad place to start
And it ain't a bad place to start

[Bridge]
I don't break down anymore, I break through
Pay my dues down, I'm making my moves
And now I know and now I know

[Chorus]
I am back at the bottom for another night
Ain't no stranger to his place
All these voices playing games
Got me back at the bottom but I see the light
I may bruise but I won't break
Lying in the dark
And it ain't a bad place to start
And it ain't a bad place to start

[Outro]
And it ain't a bad place to start
