Depression - Dax
Lyrics by:Daniel Nwosu Jr.
Composed by:Daniel Nwosu Jr.
I can't find myself
I get lost inside my brain
I think I might need help
But I pushed all of 'em away
I took the cards they dealt
And there's nothin' I can change
So when I'm by myself
I just pray for brighter days
Sometimes I sit and I reminisce 'bout the good times
Wish I could get those back
I keep on runnin' these races that go in my mind
And they go on these tracks
I'm not ready to erase all my memories
Hmm I fight depression
And I let it get the best of me
Now there's nowhere to run nowhere to go
Look around there's liquor bottles all on the floor
Fillin' up the space inside my heart and my home
Drownin' out these thoughts until they leave me alone
I can't find myself
I get lost inside my brain
Think I might need help
But I pushed all of 'em away
I took the cards they dealt
And there's nothin' I can change
So when I'm by myself
I just pray for brighter days
These thoughts are drainin' all my energy
I try to tell 'em to God they said I'm goin' insane
And then they recommended therapy
And I go and talk to a man
Who's gettin' paid to explain
He started sayin' that
The chemical imbalance is the reason that my brain
Ain't connectin' to accomplishments associated with movin' on
All in life and passive things in my heart cannot contain
So that happiness won't sustain
And he read me my options
He said here goes a pill only take two eat a meal
And they don't know how I feel
I can't find myself
I get lost inside my brain
Think I might need help
But I pushed all of 'em away
I took the cards they dealt
And there's nothin' I can change
So when I'm by myself
I just pray for brighter days
Should I drown all these thoughts
Or should I leave 'em to float
I've got all of my flaws livin' inside of this boat
I've been anchored in pain
The weight is makin' me choke
It's gettin' harder to breathe
It's pullin' right at my throat
I've been hopin' for change
But don't know how to restart
