Ride This One Out

Lyrics

[Intro: Purpose] Uh [Verse 1: Purpose] Up again, couldn't keep my eyes shut again Brain runnin' a million miles an hour once again (Ah!) I gotta get outta here, fuck this place Tossin' and turnin', I wish I could just escape Sometimes, doin' your best just doesn't cut it And pride is a motherfucker We've got the nerve to think if the picture's crooked, then we can just adjust it And so everybody needs a little somethin' somethin' (Uh) Pick a card, any card, what's your lucky number? What's your vice? What's your story? What you done this summer? Just another roach in the garden Don't know who you are, don't know how it started This here is a soundtrack to the angst About rattling raps you lay down flat on your back (Inhale) Take deep breaths (Uh) (Exhale) Do you feel free yet? Do you feel the anxiety we get? (What?) Stand by for the sign, we hand glide off the peak, (Yeah) then Then ride in the deep end, (Uh) in the thick of trouble In this picture puzzle, there's only one piece left and I lost it [Chorus: Purpose & Woman, Purpose] And I lost it, (I lost it) but please just hear me out (Just hear me out) Please just hear me out (Hear me out) And I lost it, but please just hear me out Please just hear me out (Yeah, uh) [Verse 2] Monday mornin', cold, slouched on my desk Come to find out money made the world go 'round while I slept The lawn (Uh) needs mowin', the whole house is a mess Jumped (Uh) in the deep end, must be why I feel (Uh) so out of my depth (Ah!) They're screamin' at me, so loud I'll go deaf, death Lay a rope down in respects I mean I love what I do, but I know now, it's a threat (Yeah) Just think about puttin' your dreams and hopes down on a bet 'Cause I've grown now, and the world's spinnin' 'round Just happens to be somethin' I got no power against Gotta choke down on the meds (Uh) just to cope now, with the stress (Uh) Feels like my heart's about to explode out of my chest I notice it now, when I go out with my friends (Yeah) I'm cold now, it's like I don't know how to repent Just tryna talk my hopes down off the ledge Before they're home bound, layin' throat down on the steps (We can talk this out) Even my own counsellor says Well, it's not a person, just a voice that rolls 'round in my head (Anyway) Anyway, it says there's no power in death Like no flower has grown out of contempt But in an hour or less I made 'em see it my way, now we're both out for revenge New memories seem to be cloned out of regrets A reoccurrin' nightmare, just ain't grown out of it yet And although I don't sound that upset It's 'cause I'm so numb, life brings the smoke out of my breath And the smoke chews the life out of my strength People told me to slow down, I know now, what they meant (Uh) I abandon logic and broke down by the fence (Yeah) Made it in the house, put my coat down on the desk, and thought I'm home now, this is profound as it gets Can't slow down this merry-go-round for success [Bridge: Purpose, Woman, Purpose & Woman] But I guess I'ma ride this one out But I guess I'ma ride this one out I'ma ride this one out But I'ma ride this one I'ma ride this one out I'ma ride this one out I'ma ride this one out I'ma ride this one I'ma ride this one out I'ma ride this one out I'ma ride this one out I'ma ride this one [Outro: Purpose & Sample] I'ma ride this one out Yeah, I'ma ride this one I'ma ride this one Yeah, I'ma ride this one Don't wanna go out like that, man
