[Verse 1]
Well, I watch the news, I read the paper too
Sometimes I'm confused, feel like we're living in a zoo, oh humanity
That's just a crazy scene
There's preachers touching kids and kids having kids
Kids killing kids, what the hell is this
How'd it get to that
[Pre-Chorus]
It's enough to drive a sane man mad
And a good man bad so I'm not goin' back, yeah
[Chorus]
That's the reason there's more brown liquor
Than Coca-Cola in my cup 'cause it kills the pain quicker
That's the reason I start the day with something strong
So I can do it on a wrong night's goin' on
There's just somethin' 'bout a bottle
That helps drown thе thoughts I think
So if you wanna run wild
That's why I drink
That's why I drink
[Verse 2]
Betting money, changing hands
It's hard to understand
Why wе're living in a land with no land ahead
To the broken folk
Big on the change to the silo
People who need it, can't get it
People who got it, don't share
They don't care 'bout what ain't fair
Turn off the TV, so the starvin' people ain't there
[Pre-Chorus]
It's enough to drive a sane man mad
And a good man bad so
[Chorus]
That's the reason there's more brown liquor
Than Coca-Cola in my cup 'cause it kills the pain quicker
That's the reason I start the day with something strong
So I can do it on a wrong night's goin' on
There's just somethin' 'bout a bottle
That helps drown the thoughts I think
So if you wanna run wild
That's why I drink
That's why I drink
[Pre-Chorus]
It's enough to drive a sane man mad
And a good man bad so
[Chorus]
That's the reason there's more brown liquor
Than Coca-Cola in my cup 'cause it kills the pain quicker
That's the reason I start the day with something strong
So I can do it on a wrong night's goin' on
There's just somethin' 'bout a bottle
That helps drown the thoughts I think
So if you wanna run wild, yeah, let me tell you why
That's why I drink
That's why I drink
