Track 15: Better Times fear Elijah Simpson
Instrumental produced by: Beatfella

lyrics

Everytime I wake up I see

My life that lies ahead of me

But I don't

Know what to do

I've had enough

I think im through

Best regards to you and your friends

Take care

And find a better man

I lie alone

On this bed tonight

Lord knows

I've seen better times

Yeah
That's when I wake up and I see the sun
I can't wake myself up from this dream tell me
What have I done

They can't hear my screams
I'm feeling like I'm stunned
They always catch up no matter
How fast I try to run

And then I wake from the pain
I can't escape from my brain
A hell I entered on the same day
It's a shame I made

I thought I was finished
Living in this life of peace
All it takes is one person
To destroy your life of ease

But what do I mean
I even question myself
This journey is a sickness
And everyday lessens my health so these

Lessons I've dealt
Or messages ive received
I think it's time to listen
To the demons inside my dreams
They know my life better than me

I always look up and ask why
am I cursed
is this a blessing thats in diguise
If so man it really hurts
I try to talk but
No one cares for my cries
I search for myself in the skies
Lord knows I've seen some better times

Everytime I wake up I see

My life that lies ahead of me

But I don't

Know what to do

I've had enough

I think im through

Best regards to you and your friends

Take care

And find a better man

I lie alone

On this bed tonight

Lord knows

I've seen better times

Shit

Am I stuck in this perdicament

Something needs to change yeah

I really need to fix this shit

I can never make a choice
My loves under control
And It's serving 25 to life
With No chance of parole

There's times I need to express
i have problems too
I always claim to win but shit
I'll probably lose

Lose my head
Lose my self esteem
Man I wonder
Lose myself to the dread
All Because im Choosing not to bleed

But I can't help it damn my
Emotions sprung a leak
She went and took her dive
And then she plunged to me

What a scene
It's all so green
The beauty of nature and life
It's all seems so serene

When we're together
It seems oh so nostalgic
Everyday hoping it happens
But man I should of called it

Empty lies
And empty promises
You tripped over my soul
And you happened to fall on it

Everytime I wake up I see

My life that lies ahead of me

But I don't

Know what to do

I've had enough

I think im through

Best regards to you and your friends

Take care

And find a better man

I lie alone

On this bed tonight

Lord knows

I've seen better times

Smothered
I feel like I can't breathe
A struggle for lovin'
Is what I really need

Or maybe I'm confused
I can't pick and choose
When I bleed or bruise
Who are you To speak on the truth
There's things out there
I need to prove

Not to anyone else
But Only to me
If this life's a waking of hell
Well Then heaven lies asleep

I hide inside my screams
Pride it seems
Is my downfall

What a sight to see
Alive to dream
But for how long

So wait a second
What happened to
the affection
It was only in our past
In the smallest section

But I loved every minute
Too many spritless women
And your capacity to love it
Went and reached it's limit

You ignore me than
You ask for forgiveness
Saying your reminiscing on our past and that you miss it
Forget it

Shit
Well sorry but I'm finished
I need to save myself
I won't come running back
When I hear your cry for help



Everytime I wake up I see

My life that lies ahead of me

But I don't

Know what to do

I've had enough

I think im through

Best regards to you and your friends

Take care

And find a better man

I lie alone

On this bed tonight

Lord knows

I've seen better times
