The inspiration for this record came from how I often experience depression. Everything in my life can be going really good and something really bad can happen out of nowhere and it brings me from 10 to 2 in a matter of minutes; this particular cycle of events happens multiple times in 1-2 months.

Verse 1:
I hate you when you show
A repay of the moment, like a rerun of the lows
A bully of the glow
Stomping ever glimmer when you enter with the woes
Riveting, a shiver when you creep in with the cold
Oh, I️ saw you when you when I came up on the gold
So, I’m putting every present on a hold
With a possibility
That I’ll pro'lly never see, another come up of the green
Like when I’m planting every week, sheesh
Your steal away has never made me free, thief
A jump off that you never wanna meet, leap
Your voice is pretty subtle when we speak...
A treatment with the silencer of bleak
I️ never wanna see you aga-in
I️ never wanna see you again, then
You pop up when I’m popping and indent
A jab to the sen-ses
I’m hoping that you never take control of my thinking
Chorus:
You always ruining the best times
Keep me company but kill mines
Always blocking out the sunshine
You go again and come again with each climb
Verse 2:
Crazy how the come up got me feeling like a summer
In a hammock under covers and I’m touching on my lover
Hearing subtle thunder sets the mood up and the color
So painting on each other, every brushing is a wonder
But man it’s always something
We wrestle over trouble end up making mental clutter
Got my inner going under
So it decimates the upper
And my courage in a plummet
So yes, the kisses that you blow are pretty crushing
Anxiety is high
Got me guessing all ability and pride
You steady telling me I shouldn’t even try
The rejection makes you better is a lie
Then I kick the negativity aside
When I think of all the victories and vibes
The people pushing me to take a leap and rise
But you tempting me to give up on the side
And I’m tempted every time
Chorus

When I wrote this song, I had to do my best to keep the metaphor intact without giving it away so easily. You have to listen to lyrics and think a little but not too hard. The metaphor is comparing a jump off/side chick/gold digger, pretty much the girl (or guy) that your friends don’t like, to dep...
