[Intro: Tai, Tai's mother, & the hosts]
Iām still that kid, Iām still that kid
I havenāt seen him in 10 years!
I told her that Iām still that kid, Iām still that kid
Iām just b-Iām tired, Iām depressed, Iām tired
We know
Ok
Iām tired, Iām just tired, Iām hurt
Thatās some twisted logic
Nah man, like
Youāre telling us that youāre---
Iām just saying, Iām just saying itās mental things that can mess with-
Ok, but Tai, youāre-
Itās mental things that bothers me in the physical world
Youāre telling us that youāre depressed?
I donāt have motivation, how can I have motivation? Yes! How can I have m-motivation when I-everythingās handed to me?
Right, so youāre telling us that youāre depressed?
Yeah, Iām depressed, Iām always depressed
Iām in a dark spot, I know Iām in a dark spot
Were you in a dark spot---
And Iāve been there for a long time
But----
[Verse: Jonny Farias & Simon Sinek]
I got way too much to take to the tomb
Always be whining, it aināt nothing new
Been getting used to feeling confused
I've been addicted to bringers of gloom (twelve steps)
Maybe these feelings are just seasonal
The weather's good, how are you?
This so personal, mad emotional
Tell 'em be strong, but what about you?
Some nights Iām thinking āI could've been Juniorā
Other nights stressinā ābout unreleased music
Seems like every day I'm making excuses
Honestly, it make me feel like a fool
Pushing myself to the limit but feel like Iām always on ice like Iām Sumire
Put them bars down, sport the flow too
But I worry ābout who gonā play it?
Rant at the man in the mirror, we feudin'
Thinking ābout how Iām gonā say it, just do it
Waiter, can I get a table for two?
You canāt have your cake and eat it too, Jonny
Foundation's feeling too rocky
Eyes been flooding like a tsunami
Aināt just thinking ābout the punani
Been hung up on you too long
Jonny boy, you should move on
Jonny boy, you should move on
I donāt really know why you do what you do, Lord
Sidebar, I told my boy ākeep your head upā
He told me back, āyou tooā
On the edge, going cuckoo
Self-care once in a blue moon
Feel like the ugliest piece in the museum
His architecture, you got used to
Then you feel like he used you
Built him up, then he tore you down
I keep thinking things through
And thinking them through, and thatās a problem
The most bitter pill to swallow, that's the truth
We know that engagement in social media and our cell phones releases a chemical called dopamine
Perk up when my phone be flashing blue
Happy ācause my phone is flashing blue
Thatās why when you get a text, feels good
And it's you, and it's you
Twists and turns kept me out of the loop
Some days, I wanna be in solitude
But some days, I wanna be next to you
Don't try and make sense of the irrational
Never faced things of this magnitude
My worldās been shaken up
Struggling coming up with good attributes
I couldnāt even identify two (bye)
Everything closeted, gotta set loose
I don't phase in and out of this mood
Chasing rainbows like a loon
Beating 'round the bush, I won't bloom
I really care about you
Do you feel the same way too?
Houston, we got some issues
Houston, I got some issues
Humid, fearful, face is changing hues
Falling from a high altitude
Finna drop this out the blue
Wish I didnāt have to be so blue
Wish I could go into the blue
Wish I could leave all of this with you
[Outro: Host 1, Host 2, Jonny Farias & Tai's mother]
Um, itās the woe-is-me story, the āoh Iām so sorry, well feel sorry for me, because I was deprived of this, that, and the other thingā, and I was raised really well
This is all, I donāt feel any emotion toward him right now
Why?
Because itās all a game, itās all his MO
For him to get his way?
His MO, his manipulation of us (yep)
