robert ivory - once an addict lyrics

[intro]
something’s got a hold on me
sometimes i think pain is just a lack of understanding
if we could only understand it all, would we feel no pain?
god must feel no pain
something’s got a hold on me
only joy
does this mean even our suffering pleases him?

[verse 1]
24 years on this earth
and i can’t get it out my head
i can’t stop searchin’ the words
karma lures me with a dance
always ending empty+handed, guess it’s what i deserve
serpent tatted on her back, my mind is lost in her curves addicted to the slither through constricted movement
choosin’ to lose lucifer, his grip was loose at first
this cycle’s almost 20 years old
you forced yourself upon my life
now i can’t break away from stains within my day+to+day
my brain erased the memories, or at least i thought
scenes reoccurring in the dreams i watch
is it my fault?

[interlude]
yeah
[verse 2]
same old year
runnin’ into all the other same old years
thought that life’d change, but it’s the same old feel
hanging out with all of the same old peers
they thinkin’ i should quit because there ain’t no deal
can’t sign the dotted line because there ain’t no real
label that won’t treat me like a dollar sign
i’ll let you in on something that i hide inside, oh
conflicted with my worth, my voice sounds priceless
but the mind you’ll find behind these lines ain’t worth the phone i type in
i’m called a g+nius  and i mean this when i say
that i’m far from great, d+mn, what sense that make?
i’m top five all+time and i can’t realize it
imagine how i’d sound without you blockin’ my iris
you’ve blinded my reflection, empty glass on the wall
so all i have is the past to form the portrait i draw
i have an attraction to ignoring resolve
cryin’ for help, but i’m the one that it’s on
promise to y’all i won’t stay captured for long
i know what’s right, but i keep choosing the wrong

[outro]
something’s got a hold on me
i can’t let it go
out of fear i won’t be free
something’s got a hold on me
i can’t let it go
out of fear i won’t be—
something’s got a hold on me
[outro]
life can bring much pain
there are many ways to deal with this pain
choose wisely
