Sometimes I feel like I ruined everything
Sometimes I feel like I’m slippin, slippin oh oh
The way my brain and body, reacts to every memory
Sometimes I feel like I’m slippim, slippin, oh oh
I should’ve listened up when I was young
But I always talked to much

When I’m broken, when I’m stuck
Ohhhhhhhhh
I should’ve listened up when I was young
But I always talked to much
Punch drunk on some bad luck
Hard times
You gotta make mistakes to know
It takes mistakes to grow
And now I know
And now I know
And now I know
When I gotta listen up
