Twelvadozen - Gimme a Break

In life I find sometimes
We need a break, a vacay
I can't even lie, the harder we try, the longer it takes to escape from the problems that we face
I don't know why, but it feels like it's been a long time since I've been awake, but tonight I'm gonna sleep tight, if I sleep right then
The problems might fade away

So many problems in my life
Since I've been alive
But my momma always
Stayed by my side
Through the longest of nights
And the darkest of times
All the fights taking flight
I could never see the light
But despite all the days
That would never go right
Something changed when
My mom left my dad I was 5
A surprise, someone new then came into my life
It was better, but not easy
Letting go of the guy, my dad
Oh my I had to say goodbye
It was sad, but at least
I was safe from the knives
My dad would try to...
Nevermind I'll stop there
Because somethings in life
Are meant to stay hidden, forbidden, classified
So that's why I decide
To hide it to the side
At least I'm not dead
At least I'm still alive
I thank my mom for
Keeping me safe and
I feel bad sometimes because
She never takes a break
For goodness sake,
I swear on my momma's grave

In life I find sometimes
We need a break, a vacay
I can't even lie, the harder we try, the longer it takes to escape from the problems that we face
I don't know why, but it feels like it's been a long time since I've been awake, but tonight I'm gonna sleep tight, if I sleep right then
The problems might fade away

I need a break like a Kit-Kat
Take a break and relax
Stay up late, then hibernate
And wake up like I'm all that
Fall back, play some games
And listen to some sick tracks
Blasting music
Feeling exuberant
That's what you call
Some big facts, life hacks
Never take life for granted
Cause you'll never know
What you had, so be glad
Don't be mad or else
Your life is gonna be bad
Why be sad? I don't see how
That's gonna help jack,
But some days are so bad
That I think I need a break to
Help when I'm awake because

In life I find sometimes
We need a break, a vacay
I can't even lie, the harder we try, the longer it takes to escape from the problems that we face
I don't know why, but it feels like it's been a long time since I've been awake, but tonight I'm gonna sleep tight
If I sleep right then
The problems might fade away

In life I find sometimes
We need a break, a vacay
I can't even lie, the harder we try, the longer it takes to escape from the problems that we face
I don't know why, but it feels like it's been a long time since I've been awake, but tonight I'm gonna sleep tight, if I sleep right then
The problems might fade away
