Lyrics Use These Blues - Marco Polo, A-F-R-O, Eamon

Use These Blues

See I’ve been getting high
From dealing with the lows
Every time I get by
Another door close
It’s like I love it when I lose
So come with me and use these blues
So even though I try
Straighten up and fly
Seeing momma’s tears come down her eyes
It’s like I love it when I lose
So come with me and use these blues
Ayo, now I remember
When all of the hardest problems caught up in my noggin
Washed up, unconscious
Heart stopped and nausea
Walking farther in the ocean with the hopeless feelin' reelin' in the proper
motion sickness
The soul is gifted but the mind plays the puppeteer
Something fierce, that loving you will still erupt in tears
Punching walls, yelling at ya moms for shit you did
The love you abused, let your mood switch
The hatred and hopelessness you feel is a play on your mind
The love around you is real
The brothers are out to bill but your mothers are out to heal with you
Others are down to kill you, but you gotta figure this
You tell yourself it ain’t worth it but it is
I wanna see the smile on your face when you live your days
It’s a phase you’re a diamond in the rough
You’re allowed to touch people, dying is injustice
See I’ve been getting high
From dealing with the lows
Every time I get by
Another door close
It’s like I love it when I lose
So come with me and use these blues
So even though I try
Straighten up and fly
Seeing momma’s tears come down her eyes
It’s like I love it when I lose
So come with me and use these blues
The thing about rock-bottom, there’s no room to sink lower
Instead of thinking back please think forward
Reach for a shoulder and fiend for your quota
A real human being gon' see you need closure
You gotta remember to tell yourself you’re worth it
The serpent in your mind doesn’t like you as a person
It seeks out to hurt ya, yeah it’s always with you
And I know that it’s a bitch to live through
But you don’t recognize the people in your life, trying to teach you to strive
The tears in their eyes when you’ll be falling a weak demise and the hurt is so
deep inside
Of you, blinking and thinking «Why am I even being alive?»
And «Why try to be the guy who finds beauty in life blind?»
My brothers and my sisters learned a lesson
If you’re hopeless, just remember you’re a blessing to your loved ones
See I’ve been getting high
Dealing with the lows
Every time I get by
Another door close
It’s like I love it when I lose
So come with me and use these blues
So even though I try
Straighten up and fly
Seeing momma’s tears come down her eyes
It’s like I love it when I lose
So come with me and use these blues
