Mmm mmm mmm
Mmm mm mmm...
Running from my past
Ion know where to hide
Demons deep inside
They control my mind
Feel like I’m burning on the inside
Running out of time
6 feet under
Buried in my pride
I try to live right
But I’m still losing the fight
Will I live or die
It don’t matter right?
Every time that I cry
The tears in my eyes
Are brighter than light
Yh guess that mean I do got some light in my life
Guess that mean i do got some chance in this fight
But I ain't gon close my eyes, not for a second
Niggas always say my songs are cries for attention
Man fuck you, I’m fighting depression
Fuck you, I’m fighting the pressure
Been on my own, ion need no mention
My head is moving in different dimensions
Move too slow
Codeine dimension...
Ooo ooo oo oo
Oo oo oooo
Uuu woah oo oo
Ooo oo oo
Feel like I’m burning on the inside
Running out of time
6 feet under
Buried in my pride
I try to live right
But I’m still losing the fight
Will I live or die
It don’t matter right?
Mmm mmm mmm
Mmm mm mmm...
Running from my past
Ion know where to hide




Demons deep inside
They control my mind
