The Man on My Left Shoulder

And when you may try
To hide away
Why do you hide away? (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Why do you hide away? (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Feeling like there's no room (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Left for me (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Feeling like there's nothing left (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
And there's nothing more (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Used to give a ****, that was just an old phase (Old phase)
You and me were close, now you further than the old days (Old days)
Sometimes I wonder why I'm headed towards a cold place (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
They like, “Lemme fix you”, I don't **** with Coldplay (No), yeah
Aye, wish I could forget, I cannot forgive, yeah
Every step- I gotta relive, yeah
Take a breath, feel it in my ribs, yeah
Let my voice (Yeah) fade into the mist (Mist , mist, mist...)
I been talking to the man sitting on my left shoulder (Shoulder)
He said 'Everything just gets worse when youre older' ([?])
I just pulled up to the function, can't even function (No, no)
Know nothin, I don't know nothin (No, no)
I'm not one of you (No), I said I' m not (Im not)
I only ****ed with you because I want a spot (Uh huh)
Now that's what I got (I do), but with it, went the plot (Yeah)
I checked the big picture, now that shit is getting cropped
Yeah, I've been feeling what I want is something less, uh
Feel like a sellout that ain't made a **** ing cent, uh (Yeah), guess I shoulda up and left
But I always tell myself that I'm one of the good guys (Right?)
Well maybe that's a good lie (Good lie, hahaha) , yeah
Everything looking like ashes, I don't want a car, I imagine it crashes
The man on my shoulder, he told me what happens, the glass is half empty? It actually shatters
He told me 'Don't look in the mirror without me', he said the world would be clearer without me (No)
The man on my shoulder I think I believe him, I really don't want him, I think that I need him, yeah
I been talking to the man sitting on my left shoulder
He said 'Everything just gets worse when youre older'
I just pulled up to the function, can't even function
Know nothin, I don 't know nothin
Huh? Huh? Huh? (Uh)
Yeah! (Shit!) What? Huh? Aye, aye!
Huh, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Damn! Damn! (Yeah, yeah, huh, oh, aye)
I get too happy for money (Uh huh)
They all wanna back me for money (They do)
I put them hunnids all over my face
Now I got acne for money (Ah ha!)
I got it all in my bank (Uh huh)
I treat that shit like it's nothing (Nope)
I treat that shit like it's nothing (Its nothing)
I turned that nothing to something (Uh huh)
I put them bands on my face, huh
That won't make the man go away (No )
She put her hands on my waist, uh
But he still standing in place (For real), yeah
I wish I had more voices in my
Head to counteract you (Huh?)
I think that's why
I have to sing about you (Yeah, yeah)
Used to give a ****, that was just an old phase (Old phase)
You and me were close, now you further than the old days (Old days)
Sometimes I wonder why I'm heading towards a cold place (Cold Place)
They like “Lemme fix you,” I don't **** with Coldplay, aye (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Wish I could forget, I cannot forgive, yeah
Every step- I gotta relive, yeah
Take a breath, feel it in my ribs, yeah
Let my voice (Yeah) fade into the mist (Mist, mist, mist...)
I been talking to the man sitting on my left shoulder
He said, 'Everything just gets worse when youre older'
I just pulled up to the function, can't even function
Know nothin, I don't know nothin
I had a foot out the door
And the other one sunk in the floor, floor, floor
I was checkin out of the store
I wonder who I'm doing this for, for, for
I was zonin out of my class (Y-y-y-yeah!)
I love her, but I wish that she asked, she asked, she asked (Y-y-y-)
Made too many shitty songs in the past
I hope my first impression wasn 't the last
I hope there's plenty (Yeah) more, I hope this isn't the last
But if it is, do me a favor and make sure that it lasts- it lasts forever
I 'd be lying if I said I didn't have regrets
Even from when they thought my life forgot to matter less
I started looking in the mirror for my eyes, and not my hair
Realized, I 'll be alone, it do not matter if youre there
I still feel it, I still talk to the man on my shoulder
No matter who's hands on my shoulder, I'm the man in the corner
I know the answer, but I can't seem to fill in the bubble
I think I need to get outta mine
I like to think about what life will be like down the line (Y-y-y-yeah!)
But that's misleading, cause a line is infinite (Y-y-y-) and not about to die at any minute
I think I love her, but I'll never tell
I won't admit it, and that's my problem, I won't solve em
I won't go the distance, I'll just regress into a mess, and so
I hope you listen, I hope you notice I'm my lowest
Hope you know the difference, I said, ' Let's never speak again'
Maybe I spoke too soon, cause now these words been feelin broken
They got no more room, they get consumed by their own dust
And leave a hopeless tune, what do I do ?
Ain't got no closure for this open wound... ain't got no closure...
...But the man on my shoulder, yeah
