Leo Napier - Before I Go Away

Текст песни

I’ve been feeling like my yesterday is gone
My brain cells are functionning like Cheech and Chong
I’ve been living present future but no past
I think it’s time to kick these drugs and do it fast
I know the music is the drug that brings content
It’s a high I didn’t buy it was heaven sent
I used to cry my blues for my fellow men
Now I sing the blues but it’s only cause I can
That’s why I’m gonna leave y’all, today
I’m sick of being a lightning rod
Conducting all your pain
I don’t sleep no
I self-medicate
So I’ll sing one more song before I go away
See I’ve been trying to make my mind up but I can’t
Cause when I’m high, baby I can lie like a president
So I lie and tell myself the pain ain’t real
But without pain, the song I sing ain’t got no feel
That’s why I’m gonna leave y’all for today
I’m sick of being a lightning rod
Conducting all your pain
I don’t sleep no
I self-medicate
So I’ll sing one more sing before I go away
They won’t feel a thing
Unless I sing it like I feel
They won’t hear the words I sing
Unless they see my wound still bleeding
Alone upon the stage
I’m gonna waste my life away
I’ll fight the beast another day
That’s why I’m gonna leave y’all for today
I’m sick of being a lightning rod
Conducting all your pain
I don’t sleep no
I self-medicate
But I’ll sing one more sing before I go away
