    Set it up, this is what I'm talking about,
    Let me do my thing, here we go.
    Waking up, I feel such a sense that my life has succumb to rely,
    A cross between where I live my life and where I'm really at.
    How do we get so close without us knowing where we would be?
    And how do we get so old without us knowing we can't get out?
    They yell "Be strong!", I see no point in flying low this time,
    We have come for what we're owed, I'm bleeding it dry.
    How long have we both lived for the same style,
    I would die for what I can do, I would die for what you can't,
    Why can't we just believe in taking it so far,
    That our feet don't touch the ground?
    How do we get so close without us knowing where we would be?
    And how do we get so old without us knowing we can't get out?
    They yell "Be strong!", I see no point in flying low this time,
    We have come for what we're owed, I'm bleeding it dry.
    Can you feel how close we are? Reach out and grab it,
    One of the shapes afraid of us, I'll bury you there,
    This mistake won't be the end of us,
    Stare into nothing, we are alive.
    How do we get so close without us knowing where we would be?
    And how do we get so old without us knowing we can't get out?
    They yell "Be strong!", I see no point in flying low this time,
    We have come for what we're owed, I'm bleeding it dry.

    • @Void-Realm
      @Void-Realm 6 месяцев назад

      ​​@@stephanienavarro3421 he's stayed sober for a fairly consistent period now to be fair and is doing well. Pretty sure this is his longest stint or sobriety. Last time he was still drinking and smoking weed before relapsing which maybe wasn't suitable for him. Plus, you're masking stuff with opioids or trying to run from a feeling. In the majority of cases. Then whenever you get sober all of the pain, emotion etc you've medicated away hits you and you've gotta process it. It's almost like you get stuck at the point you got hooked, whilst adding any baggage added during addiction. So constantly seeing this type of comments on your music (which he does read) isn't easy. He can never get free of it. Which must be awful.
      Like, he makes a new song he's really proud of, he's trying etc. Then has some dude who's never met him and doesn't know what he's even like bringing up stuff he did a decade ago.

    Jonny Craig - The title says it all...
