Problematic - When The Drugs Don't Work lyrics

[Problematic - When The Drugs Don't Work lyrics]

Wake up in the morning, I don't have a sense of urgency
Taking things for granted I've been living with uncertainty
Try to mask the pain as I'm dealing with this scrutiny
My life is like a horror film, I'm screaming out its brutally
And honestly... Never been the type to talk about my problems
Nod your head up in agreement, you don't ever try to solve 'em
Everybody leaves, I should know by now it's temporary
Tryna calm my nerves but no prescription necessary
Lord please, I'm reaching out, I need some help
I'm down on both knees with constant tension overwhelmed
If Ima swim up in these waters then I swear I'm Michael Phelps
All this family drama got me living like I'm Dave Chappell
I'm so worried for my future when I should be in the moment
Depression sinking in again, I thought that it was over
I thought that I'd be happy if I gained some more exposure
But the opposite is true, I'm fucking miserable and colder

Another day through the pain and my muthafucking head still hurts
(Head still hurts)
Where you suppose to turn when the meds and the drugs don't work?
(Drugs don't work)
My anxiety has been killing every part of me
I can hardly breathe, my mind is my enemy
My anxiety has been killing every part of me
I can hardly breathe, my mind is my enemy

I'm detached from my emotions as I'm going through the motion
Treating everyday the same, man I'm sick and tired of loathing
In my pity, in my doubts obviously it's so provoking
I can put on quite an act like my name was John Travolta
And I'm sorry... I can't live up to your expectations
I may overanalyze, I might leave the conversation
I might go and break your heart but I promise no intentions
Every girl I ever loved either toxic or obsessive
Drowning slowly but I'm remaining optimistic
I must proceed, 'cause I got people that depending on me
Full speed, but I am burning out, confessing
Do not tell me open up because I'll probably regret it
I contradict myself and question anything that's real
Smoke another j in hopes the trauma maybe heal
Gimme more Xanax, Prozac, thanks Doctor!
And I'll be on my way, screaming fuck Big Pharma

Another day through the pain and my muthafucking head still hurts
(Head still hurts)
Where you suppose to turn when the meds and the drugs don't work?
(Drugs don't work)
My anxiety has been killing every part of me
I can hardly breathe, my mind is my enemy
My anxiety has been killing every part of me
I can hardly breathe, my mind is my enemy

Gotta face my demons, don't let 'em get ahold
Crumbling to pieces, it's been a lonely road
Wear my scars on my sleeve like a badge of honour
And any obstacle that I encounter Ima conquer
Weak stomach so depleted but I can't quit
Made a promise to myself that I'm all in
It's therapeutic and it's something that we both need
Without this music in my life I would of OD'ed

Another day through the pain and my muthafucking head still hurts
(Head still hurts)
Where you suppose to turn when the meds and the drugs don't work?
(Drugs don't work)
My anxiety has been killing every part of me
I can hardly breathe, my mind is my enemy
My anxiety has been killing every part of me
I can hardly breathe, my mind is my enemy
