[Intro (Josh - talking)]
Oh man, Lucid. Where do I even start? Your music, it's amazing.
It's like you really believe in what you're after. In my opinion
It's some of the best, the best, music out there. Keep it up TJ
C#m
[Verse 1]
A E
What if I told you that I didn't feel good enough and I'm broken
C#m
What if I said that I'm losin' my faith and been struggling with coping
Been stuck for a while
A E
When I look at the clock man I feel like it's frozen
Then again time is just flying too quick
And I'm losing devotion
C#m
Truth is I feel no emotion
A
Bottled it up and all I feel is rage
E
And I would be lying if I looked at you and said I'm not afraid
C#m
What if I never get through this shit
A
What do I do if I can't find my way
E
And I know that my father has been counting on me to carry our name
C#m
Speakin' of him and I got to be honest
A
We ain't really speakin' these days
E
I've been scared that I won't get to know him before the day he fades away
C#m A
My family fought a lot when I was growin' up
What can I say?
E
(What can I say?)
What can I say?
By fightin', there ain't really nothin' to gain
C#m A
I know that the sun is out there somewhere
But I've been livin' in rain
E
Can we quit playin' games
C#m
I'm standin' right here and I'm ready to change
A E
And mama I promise to give you the world if I make it to fame
Put you both on a stage and make it so everyone's screamin' your name
[Chorus]
C#m A E
It's times like this I see your face
C#m A E
Wish you didn't leave this place
C#m A E
Searchin' for the reason why
C#m A E
So take a moment of silence, goodbye
[Verse 2]
C#m
Give me a second
A
I wanna say something to my little brother
E
When you get older, your father is not gonna be with your mother
C#m A
I'm 23 years older than you, I know it's kinda confusing
E
Forget all the bullies that make fun of you, it's just for their amusement
C#m
Let go of negative, seek out the light
A
Develop yourself, you should journal and write
E
Speak with integrity, treat women right
And you don't gotta drink every typical night
C#m A
Being popular really ain't everythin'
Nah don't give into that hype
E
And it's okay to forgive the people that hurt you
But don't give in twice
C#m
And to each of my sisters
A E
I know we been drifted, our parents divorced, We all moved away, and the family shifted
C#m
Yeah we visit on Christmas
A
But even the holidays' different
E
Got to make something out of this gift that God has graciously gifted
C#m A
I know that the sun is out there somewhere
But I've been livin' in rain
E
Can we quit playin' games
C#m
I'm standin' right here and I'm ready to change
A E
And mama I promise to give you the world if I make it to fame
Put you both on a stage and make it so everyone's screamin' your name
[Chorus]
C#m A E
It's times like this I see your face
C#m A E
Wish you didn't leave this place
C#m A E
Searchin' for the reason why
C#m A E
So take a moment of silence, goodbye
[Bridge]
C#m A E E x4
[Verse 3]
C#m
Give me a second
A
I owe an apology to a few people
E
I regret a few things and I made some mistakes when I gave into evil
C#m A
To all my exes I'm sorry I know I was often deceitful
E
But after Veronica cheated, I gave up and didn't treat future girls equal
C#m A
I'm sorry to all that I pushed away when I fell deep in depression
E
I never gave enough attention to people I love so I just started ruinin' friendships
C#m A
I guess that I taken the easy way out by rapping confessions
E
This is a passion of mine and the only way that I can deal with my stresses
C#m A
And I get emotional every time I stop and think about Taylor
E
Still can't believe that you took your own life away just to get rid of these haters
C#m A
I just hope that you found some peace and serenity in your decision
E
No one knew what you were going through
Then again maybe we just didn't listen
C#m A
To my granny, I wish that I said goodbye before the day that you left
E
Not telling you how much I love you is something that I still regret
C#m A
But I know you're in heaven and that it's all okay
E
One day I'll be with you, and all my fans will be screamin' my name
[Outro]
