Need You by Travis Thompson Lyrics
[Intro]
I'm off the shits again, I'm off the shits again
I seen my demons, know they names, and know I live with them
I'm off the shits again, I'm off the shits again
I'm off the, off the, off the, off the
[Verse 1]
Often, often, often
Often off the loco, often off the block
Often off the slo-mo, Travis off his rock
Like "Oh my God, oh my lord"
They want these problems, oh, of course
Too much shit, we built to stay
They ain't live like this before
No, they don't know about it
Make it through the week, mom can barely sleep
Dad wake up at two, don't get home 'til three
I've been out with them, they no good for me
In and out your house, taking what I need
Skimpy sacks of weed, tuggin' jacket sleeves
Sister off at school, little boy at home
Someone save me, please, but shit ain't for free
No, I'm anxiety ridden
I make the surface digestible, but the guy in me isn't
Like, every night when they visit, I lay awake and I stare
I know that something is coming, but dog, I'm so unprepared
I know it
[Chorus]
I'm off it
Know that something's coming, but can't call it
I put down everything I had, I'm all in, all in
But I still need you now, ayy
But I still need you now
But I still need you now, ayy
But I still need you now, yeah, yeah
I need you, I need you
I need you, I need you (I need you)
[Verse 2]
I'm fit to blow, and I'm fit to lead
I got shit to do, I got kids to feed
For generation come, it's a mystery
Whatcha did to me, we got history
Disbelief turned to disarray
You piss me off with the shit you say
Saying motherfuckers should still stay friends
When you come through, the walls don't cave in
That's some cute shit, but it's still real
But the mood switched, we just can't chill
I've been moving around town roofless
And bet they calling, and this ain't real
I come from men who just drown out they problems in bottles
And wake up and do it again
I come from heroes who blow up and ball out
And don't ever call back, or just make amends
Come from a city of "Fuck it and give up"
Come from a family of "I hate my liver"
Come from a crew of "I don't give a fuck about nothing
Get my GED, run forever"
Can't let you go, can't let it be
Wake up at night, jaw be grinding my teeth
Shit is not good, but I'm the funny one
So I just laugh it off, be who they need
Singing
[Chorus]
I'm off it
Know that something's coming, but can't call it
I put down everything I had, I'm all in, all in
But I still need you now, ayy
But I still need you now
But I still need you now, ayy
But I still need you now, yeah, yeah
I need you
[Outro]
I need you and I need all you came for (I need you)
I need you 'cause this ain't what I'm made for (I need you)
I need you to shield me from the rainfall
'Cause this rain pouring, I'm drowning now
And I'm down and out, and I run my mouth (I need you)
But I stay for you, and you ain't around (I need you)
I don't sleep too good, I don't trust no one
But I hide that shit 'cause I'm not your problem now
I'm off the shits again, I'm off the shits again
I seen my demons, know they names, and know I live with them
I'm off the shits again, I'm off the shits again
I'm off the, off the, off the, off the
[Verse 1]
Often, often, often
Often off the loco, often off the block
Often off the slo-mo, Travis off his rock
Like "Oh my God, oh my lord"
They want these problems, oh, of course
Too much shit, we built to stay
They ain't live like this before
