Under the Weather
LiL Xtra Lyrics

'Cause I heard your brother came home
Because I heard that your brother returned home

Smelling like cigarettes and death
He smelled of cigarettes and death

I'm not holding my breath
I'm not expecting much

But I hope that he gets better
But I still wish for his recovery

And you know my cousin came home
My cousin also returned home

Not quite the same, I know it's
He's not the same person, I understand

Not quite the same
He has changed

But I just want you to know that I care
But I want you to know I care

It's a real big world out there
The world is vast

Experience all we can compare
We should try to gain as much knowledge as we can

I was never even there
I wasn't there myself

Doesn't mean I don't care
But that doesn't mean I don't care

We understand the world
We know how the world works

So we know it's not fair
So we understand that life isn't always fair

It'll never be the same as it once was
Life will never be the same as before

But different doesn't have to mean hopeless
But being different doesn't always mean giving up hope

You can prepare
You can get ready

You can be scared
You may be afraid

But in the end all you gotta do is be there
But in the end, you just have to be present

'Cause I just need some time to feel better
Because I need some time to feel better

I'm bent and too broken
I'm feeling twisted and shattered

Falling under the pressure
Collapsing under the force

But I think we'll be fine
But I believe things will be alright

Keep it together
Stay calm

It feels like we're dying
It seems like we're close to death

We're just under the weather, the weather
We're just not feeling our best

The switch flipped
Something changed suddenly

And your world turns to ashes
And your life falls apart

Feeling pretty sick, can't wait until it passes
Feeling unwell, can't wait until it improves

And placid isn't quite the way I'd describe
And I wouldn't say that the mood is calm

But when your brother comes home
But when your brother returns home

Family goes into hiding
The family becomes reserved

And nah, I've never been there
No, I haven't experienced it myself

I don't get it
I don't understand

Jeep hits a land mine
The car hits a mine

Homies dying while I'm in it
My friends are dying while I'm there

Dying in the sand
Dying in the desert

Knowing that your time's finished
Knowing that your time has ended

Than surviving, no chance
Survival is impossible

That you ever could forget it
That you will ever be able to forget it

That's not an easy thing
That's not a simple thing

To carry, matter fact
To bear, actually

I'm rather sure he feels the whole world on his back
I'm quite certain he feels too much on his shoulders

And vodka only propagates the pattern
Drinking alcohol only makes it worse

When you need to feel love
When you need to feel affection

Snd be told your life matters
And to be told that your life is important

I can't imagine tryna keep myself together
I can't imagine trying to stay composed

Knowing that I left my friends
Knowing that I left my friends behind

And an arm in the desert
And that one of my friends lost an arm in the desert

I know your family feels they're coming untethered
I know your family feels like they're falling apart

But I hope you get through it
But I hope you'll overcome it

Please
I'm begging you

'Cause I've been falling apart
Because I've been breaking down

I've been thrown to the sea
I've been thrown into an overwhelming situation

Keeping myself afloat
Trying to keep myself going

Is just too much
Is just too difficult

Maybe he just needs some time
Maybe he just needs some space

To feel better
To recover

I guess all we can do
I suppose all we can do

Is help him keep it together, together
Is to help him stay strong, together with him

The weather, the weather
Our current state

The weather, the weather
Our current situation
