National Anthem

[Verse 1: 360]
Ayo
People need to know I got a weakness, I'm anxious
They think I should be happy 'cause they see that I'm famous
Weekends - my favourite, see friends get wasted
Weekdays, I hate it, I'm insane and jaded
And yo, I'm feeling like I'm nearly dead, see
Now the glass is lookin' foggy, I should prob'ly go and clear my head
I know it's hard for people to understand it
But when it comes to alcohol, I ain't got no self-control
I know it's somethin' that you mightn't think
'Cause two quiet drinks is like a few minor sips now
I need more, I'm knowin' that I shouldn't
But I keep goin', now I'm getting better, and I'm clean, y'all
Airin' out my bads is a stupid move
I could give a fuck, 60 is a human too
We've got problems even when your thoughts are
Hittin' rock bottom, most important thing for you's to not dodge it
It's not often that I try to give advice
So maybe just ignore it, it likely isn't right
So when I go ahead and write some shit like this
I'll be going through hell, and it'll fix my shit
I just really felt the urge to let you inside 6
So know I'll never reach the point where I slit my wrist
Anyone who's high, yo, you have to be landin'
When you come down, this can be your National Anthem, yeah

[Chorus: Lana Del Rey]
Tell me I'm your national
Anthem (Booyah baby, bow down, makin' me so wow now)
Tell me I'm your national
Anthem (Sugar, sugar, how now, take your body downtown)
Red, white, blue is in the sky
Summer's in the air, and baby, heaven's in your eyes
I'm your national
Anthem

[Verse 2: 360]
Uh
It probably ain't the right environment to make it known
But the closest person in my life tried to take their own
Now my girlfriend is goin' through the same shit
And she knows exactly how I'm feelin', the same - shit
It's fucked, she had two friends hang 'emselves
To understand what she's going through, imagine hell
It's such a shame those girls who were leavin' this life
Could never really know the pain they were leavin' behind
Now I can see in her eyes that she is bleeding inside
So when I start to get down, I just keep it in mind
It's fucked that we related, so dope
But after all the tragedy, it made us so close
That's what I mean when there's positives in negatives
Even in a tragedy, there's positives in everything
I must be crazy, I could be out fuckin' groupies
But that's meaningless, that life means nothin' to me
Yeah, I could fuck that slut
But, yo, I've lived that life, and I've done that stuff
And to be with somebody that I love that much
There is no chance in hell that I would fuck that up, no
She's like my medicine for actual pain
When I'm not around her, I go back to insane
So, I'm praying every day that that happiness stays
And she can make Colwell her family name, please

[Chorus: Lana Del Rey]
Tell me I'm your national
Anthem (Booyah baby, bow down, makin' me so wow now)
Tell me I'm your national
Anthem (Sugar, sugar, how now, take your body downtown)
Red, white, blue is in the sky
Summer's in the air, and baby, heaven's in your eyes
I'm your national
Anthem
