[Verse]
Depression mode in my dressing room
Pressure's on, grateful for my blessings

Though I think I found success too soon
How could it be like this?
Should've warned him if he got successful he might flip

Yeah my dreams are comin' true and all
But who do you call
When it seems the weight of the world

Is glued to your balls
I ain't being jokey, ^!$$% this is serious
Running 'round in circles but my mind is the weariest

Why am I delirious? I got everything a brother could
Ask for, feel like I'm being smothered in asphalt
'Cause I let my problems trample all over me

Too many straws have got my camel fallin' on his knees
For example I -- oh hold on, hold on...lemme take this drink, hol' up (pours drink)
Now where was I?

Finally got my wings unclipped but now I'm scared to fly
But this ain't stage fright
^!$$% this is e'ry night

Fans screaming, stampeding
Dan's speeding, movin' too fast
I can't even walk in the store anymore

Without a bunch of people standin' by the door
Asking for an autograph, man I oughta spazz out
But I gotta think about my daughter...

Speakin' of her, me and her mother are goin' through some thangs
Ever since - man $#&@ it, I gotta take...
I gotta take another drink, my bad (sips drink)

My momma said I'm actin' brand new
Said the fame changed me
But that can't be true

People that I used to call my buddy
Only actin' buddy-buddy
'Cause they want some money from me

And these honeys never came around before
Now I'm gettin' love from all these dames while I'm on tour
I wonder if they'd love me just the same if I was poor --

Yo, who's bangin' at my door?
("Six minutes, Danny Swain you're on!")
Man I ain't comin' out this room until my pain is gone

I...I need a couple seconds to sit and drink
Uh, I mean THINK...damn I can't think
Damn, what was I thinkin', I'm drinkin' again

Whether I sink or I swim, I know I gave it my best
Sometimes I -- I gotta, I gotta take another drink (pours drink)
I'm lonely and I'm nervous and I'm scared

Thought I wanted the fame, I guess I wasn't prepared
To be an overnight sensation
I hoped that I could take it in stride

I went from open mics to Vegas and died
Somewhere along the way; at least my sanity did
I didn't plan to be big, I just -- (sips drink)

I just wanted to shine
wanted my rhymes to reach the people one at a time
Funny how my small problems are all contributin'

To my biggest issue of all: my alcohol addiction
Is it me or is it...is it gettin' dark in here?
Oh...%#@!....
