Shaq Bruce - In the Dark...

Hmmm
They ain't rooting for me, they ain't clapping for me

They ain't rooting for me, they ain't clapping for me
I'm just saying can't somebody just be happy for me?
Another sad verse another sad story
Soul beats they open me up it gets harder to record em
Cause what do y'all know about sitting rock bottom?
Wanting that Dwayne money, but those checks don't come at all
So you suffer through depression
Haters laughing while you fall, addicted to the alcohol
Take shots and you gone feel em all
I got a lot of numbers only 5 that would call
If I was face down In the dirt, I dream about it more and more
Or is that called a nightmare cause I used to know before
I guess that Lucy's working overtime, you'd think that he'd get bored
Cause everyday we dancing, slide my feet across the floor
I got a dollar and dream, but I don't know what is in store anymore
Therapy sessions I like to close doors
I push the ones that love me away the ones that mentor
Then they tell take it out on who it's meant for
You talking without thinking, while the thoughts don't seem to sink in
You're losing your identity way faster than you blinking, different mood everyday
How the fuck you gonna keep friends?
A loner all your life, never popular don't pretend
You sweat and do the Harlem shake whenever public speaking
Sometimes you are the man, that sometimes is on the weekends
Or when you on stage heavy breathing, whenever you're not sober

I'll be the man
I'll be the man
I'll be the man
I'll be the man be when I'm
But when I'm sober, its me, myself, and I, always in the dark
And all that's running through my mind is everyone I've lost
I'll be the man
I'll be the man
I'll be the man
I'll be the man be when I'm
But when I'm sober, its me, myself, and I, always in the dark
And all that's running through my mind is everything I'm not

Cause everything I'm not, is everything I am when I'm drunk
I mean I drink it from the bottle till I can't walk
Till I forget my name when I talk
When I'm moments from throwing up and it doesn't stop
I mean it doesn't stop, pretending they give a fuck
These same people see me the streets and they duck
But when I'm off the goose and In the club now I guess I'm cool enough
They love it when I turn up, but hate it when I come down for days we lose touch
The real me when I drink but sometimes I switch it up
Cause I make sure that y'all are happy and for me that's not so much
Liquor tackles all my problems damn what a rush
All it takes is one shot if I take it in the clutch, a little luck
Bet I can take her home tonight, I'm gon have to roll the dice
I give these parties extra life, whenever I'm not sober

I'll be the man
I'll be the man
I'll be the man
I'll be the man be when I'm
But when I'm sober, its me, myself, and I, always in the dark
And all that's running through my mind is everyone I've lost
I'll be the man
I'll be the man
I'll be the man
I'll be the man be when I'm
But when I'm sober, its me, myself, and I, always in the dark
And all that's running through my mind is everything I'm not
