EI'm getting pretty tired of the Astate things are Ein 
Sometimes I feel like cutting a vein, just watching it B7bleed 
EI'm tired of laying it down, getting Anothing on the other Eend 
and Apeople only wanting to Ebe your friend when you B7got something they Eneed 
[Chorus]
AWell some days you kill it and Esome days you just choke 
Some days you blast off and some days you just B7smoke 
AWell now maybe I do and Emaybe I don't 
EEverybody says they'll be there but in the B7end y'all know they Ewon't
[Verse 2]
EWell I'm getting pretty tired of being Atreated like Ecompetition 
When the only one that can hold me down is inside my B7head 
EWhats a honky gotta do around here to Aget a little Erecognition 
AStart to think I Emight be worth more to B7everybody if I was Edead 
[Chorus]
AWell some days you kill it and Esome days you just choke 
Some days you blast off and some days you just B7smoke

AWell now maybe I do and Emaybe I don't
