[Verse]
I think I messed with the wrong demons inside my head
'Cause it just seems all they wanna get is revenge
Our people will be the death of me, they should be my therapy
My mother told me life would be fun
I'm in the deep end, it's dark, and it's scary in here
Treading water is hard when you're chained to the pier
There's my mother, she loves me, it feels how I fear
I promise you one day this'll all disappear

[Chorus]
I've been on a low down, low-key for a while now
Read between the lines, you might see me in the background
Hold out my hand for you
(I've been on a) low down
I've been on a low, low, low-low, low
I've been on a low down, low-key for a while now
Read between the lines, you might see me in the background
Hold out my hand for you
(I've been on a low, low, low-low, low)
(I've been on a low, low, low-low, low)

[Post-Chorus]
I've been on a low, low, low-low, low
I've been on a low, low, low-low, low
[Bridge]
Low-key for awhile now
Our people will be the death of me, they should be my therapy
My mother told me life would be fun
I'm in the deep end, it's dark, and it's scary in here
Treading water is hard when you're chained to the pier
There's my mother, she loves me, it feels how I feared

[Outro]
I've been on a low down
Hold out my hand for you
I've been on a low down, low-key for a while now
My hand for you
