Tonight I got high again
But I don't have the balls to man up to my own problems
So I walk around pretending
That I'm nothing scant of ordinary
That I'm the kinda guy that can keep secrets from God
But I'm only a coward that taps out when shit gets tough
The fast life ain't easy
And I'm not one who's got it down

I only wanna make you proud
But writings the only way that I know how
And maybe I let you down
By choosing a lifestyle that's upside down

But it's the same as anything else
Busting your ass to make a name for yourself
But I only want to do it on big stages
In front of a huge crowd
Cause that's the kinda high I'd wanna write about
Yea, that's the kinda high I'd never want to live without

I only wanna make you proud
But writings the only way that I know how
And maybe I let you down
By choosing a lifestyle that's upside down

I only wanna make you proud
(I only wanna make you proud)
But writings the only way that I know how
And maybe I let you down
(And maybe I let you down)
By choosing a lifestyle that's upside down

(And maybe I let you down)
(And maybe I let you down)
(And maybe I let you down)
(And maybe I let you down)

(I only wanna make you proud)
(I only wanna make you proud)

I only wanna make you proud
(I only wanna make you proud)
But writings the only way that I know how
And maybe I let you down
(And maybe I let you down)
(And maybe I let you down)
