Riptide

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I have done bad things, did them to good people

Got no self-control, it's the root of my evil

Wage war in my head when I'm tryna keep it peaceful

A little feels good, a little more and it's lethal

Save me from myself

I've been caught up in the riptide

For too long 'cause it's all I know

I've been lettin' this shit slide

These bad habits, they die too slow

I've been caught up in the riptide

For too long 'cause it's all I know

I've been lettin' this shit slide

But if you love me, let me go

I get high to leave all these problems on the ground

Then to my surprise, they're right there when I come back down

I do it like I've done before, a million times

A million and one, and I lose my mind

Save me from myself

I've been caught up in the riptide

For too long 'cause it's all I know

I've been lettin' this shit slide

These bad habits, they die too slow

I've been caught up in the riptide

For too long 'cause it's all I know

I've been lettin' this shit slide

But if you love me, let me go

But if you love me, let me go

Got cold by the current, 'til I'm runnin' out of breath

Got dragged back down, feel the water in my chest

I've tried getting better, did all of the twelve steps

Whoever would'a thought? Whoever could've guessed?

The harder that I chase it, the further that it gets

The harder that I chase it

I've been caught up in the riptide

For too long 'cause it's all I know

I've been lettin' this shit slide

These bad habits, they die too slow

I've been caught up in the riptide

For too long 'cause it's all I know

I've been lettin' this shit slide

But if you love me, let me go

Let me go

But if you love me, let me go
