GRiZ – Before I Go lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well I've been feelin' like my yesterday is gone
My braincells are functioning like Cheech and Chong
I've been living present future but no past
I think it's time to kick these drugs and do it fast

But the music is the drug that brings content
It's a high I didn't buy it was heaven sent
I used to cry my blues for my fellow man
Now I sing the blues but it's only cause I can

[Chorus]
That's why I'm gon' leave ya'll
Today
Sick and tired of being a steeple
A conductor for your pain
And I don't even sleep no
I self medicate
But I'll sing one more song, before I go away

[Verse 2]
See I've been tryna' make my mind up but I can't
Cause when I'm high baby I can lie like a president
So I get high and tell myself the pain ain't real
But without pain, the song I sing ain't got no feel


So I'm livin' present future with no past
I ain't sure how much longer I'm gonna last
And as long as I ain't dead I'll sing my song
And I sing it for the people 'till I'm gone

[Chorus]
That's why I'm gon' leave ya'll
Today
Sick and tired of being a steeple
A conductor for your pain
And I don't even sleep no
I self medicate
But I'll sing one more song, before I go away
