Got a nice tight grip
so do I slice the wrist like this
first and final performance
up on that violin
no encore standing ovation then I'm gone
dark blood red in my glass
I hit the floor
shattered I will drown
in the pool of broken souls
not a single memory
of when my days were golden
either way the finale is
when the casket makes the grand closing
to the dirt where I started
forget a platinum coffin
plant my body in the dirt
I'll grow a famine for the heartless
Take me to a lower plane
anchors on my ankles tied
with everything I've gained
and I'm drowning
and I'm still holding on
to all my broken dreams
shadows from my past keeps trying
to get the best of me hey
and I'm still holding on
when I'm hearing your voice
I know this is right
where I want to be hey
I'm drowning
I'm drowning
I'm drowning
I'm drowning
I still keep holding on
Mom's in the kitchen
washing dishes with her tears
got me fiending for success damn
I'm wishing it was here
ballers on the yachts fishing
with official gear
but I can still catch a winner while
I'm fishing off the peers
I can eat pride
but it brings sharp pains
to my heart
veins being humble is hard thang
is a product of the earth
Destined to be cursed
Life's a bitch can't make this work
damn it hurts every time we flirt
my status minimum worth
and it won't stop falling
them high rollers
shot callers hope I don't stop crawling
my right hand man said
That I have what it takes
to blow out these candle rappers
and bring home the sweetest cake
what a waste
I'm still holding on
to all my broken dreams
shadows from my past
keeps trying to get the best of me hey
and I'm still holding on
when I'm hearing your voice
I know this is right where I want to be
I'm drowning
I'm drowning
I'm drowning
I'm drowning
I still keep holding on
Forever I want to drown down here
nobody else seems to care
Please don't make a sound
it's all about me right now
Why the hell am I here for
Why the hell am I here for
Tell me now
Tell me now
I'm still holding on
to all my broken dreams
shadows from my past
keeps trying to get the best of me hey
and I'm still holding on
when I'm hearing your voice
I know this is right where I want to be
Yeah eh eh eh
I'm drowning
I'm drowning
I'm drowning
I'm drowning
I still keep holding on
