Dmnd BOI - Pain & Self Medicate Lyrics

I wish I could tell you there is no pain
You got to go ahead and learn from your brain
Makin sure girls ain't leaving a stain
Anxiety depression are my daily dose
They are my best friends
But they kinda clingy
They won't let go
Mama says it's a phase
But maybe this was how I was raised
Confrontation is my worst enemy
Talkin to no one Ima let it be
Keep it to my self
Hiding behind fake smiles
Since I was a small lil child
Saying everything is fine
When it isn't fine
Lyin threw my teeth
About how I'm feeling
So we medicate ourselves
In reality we're slowly killing ourselves
Nothing really takes the pain
Nothing really takes pain
Hold on to those rainy days
Hold on face the music
Hold on for your life
Hold on for your life
Everyone has problem
In thier own home
We protect our selves being in a dome
We killing our lungs
Cause we can't have fun
Cause emotions have taken the wheel
Made a hand shookin' deal
With juuls and pens
Why can't we just be cleansed
From all these emotions
It's making life a big commotion
Pills seem better than talking about it
Codine seems better than acting about it
And cocaine seems better than living through it
We got problems but there's AA
There ARP
For those that want to see true reality
Nothing really takes pain
Hold on to those rainy days
Hold on face the music
Hold on for your life
Hold on for your life
Nothing really takes pain
Hold on to those rainy days
Hold on face the music
Hold on for your life
Hold on for your life
