Need You - Travis Thompson

I’m off the shits again, I’m off the shits again

I seen my demons, know they names, and know I live with them

I’m off the shits again, I’m off the shits again

I’m off the, off the, off the, off the

Often, often, often

Often off the loco, often off the block

Often off the slo-mo, Travis off his rock

Like «Oh my God, oh my lord»

They want these problems, oh, of course

Too much shit, we built to stay

They ain’t live like this before

No, they don’t know about it

Make it through the week, mom can barely sleep

Dad wake up at two, don’t get home 'til three

I’ve been out with them, they no good for me

In and out your house, taking what I need

Skimpy sacks of weed, tuggin' jacket sleeves

Sister off at school, little boy at home

Someone save me, please, but shit ain’t for free

No, I’m anxiety ridden

I make the surface digestible, but the guy in me isn’t

Like, every night when they visit, I lay awake and I stare

I know that something is coming, but dog, I’m so unprepared

I know it

I’m off it

Know that something’s coming, but can’t call it

I put down everything I had, I’m all in, all in

But I still need you now, ayy

But I still need you now

But I still need you now, ayy

But I still need you now, yeah, yeah

I need you, I need you

I need you, I need you (I need you)

I’m fit to blow, and I’m fit to lead

I got shit to do, I got kids to feed

For generation come, it’s a mystery

Whatcha did to me, we got history

Disbelief turned to disarray

You piss me off with the shit you say

Saying motherfuckers should still stay friends

When you come through, the walls don’t cave in

That’s some cute shit, but it’s still real

But the mood switched, we just can’t chill

I’ve been moving around town roofless

And bet they calling, and this ain’t real

I come from men who just drown out they problems in bottles

And wake up and do it again

I come from heroes who blow up and ball out

And don’t ever call back, or just make amends

Come from a city of «Fuck it and give up»

Come from a family of «I hate my liver»

Come from a crew of «I don’t give a fuck about nothing

Get my GED, run forever»

Can’t let you go, can’t let it be

Wake up at night, jaw be grinding my teeth

Shit is not good, but I’m the funny one

So I just laugh it off, be who they need

Singing

I’m off it

Know that something’s coming, but can’t call it

I put down everything I had, I’m all in, all in

But I still need you now, ayy

But I still need you now

But I still need you now, ayy

But I still need you now, yeah, yeah

I need you

I need you and I need all you came for (I need you)

I need you 'cause this ain’t what I’m made for (I need you)

I need you to shield me from the rainfall

'Cause this rain pouring, I’m drowning now

And I’m down and out, and I run my mouth (I need you)

But I stay for you, and you ain’t around (I need you)

I don’t sleep too good, I don’t trust no one

But I hide that shit 'cause I’m not your problem now
