Danny! - My Problem lyrics
rate me
[Verse] Depression mode in my dressing room Pressure's on, grateful for my blessings Though I think I found success too soon How could it be like this? Should've warned him if he got successful he might flip Yeah my dreams are comin' true and all But who do you call When it seems the weight of the world Is glued to your balls I ain't being jokey, nigga this is serious Running 'round in circles but my mind is the weariest Why am I delirious? I got everything a brother could Ask for, feel like I'm being smothered in asphalt 'Cause I let my problems trample all over me Too many straws have got my camel fallin' on his knees For example I -- oh hold on, hold on...lemme take this drink, hol' up (pours drink) Now where was I? Finally got my wings unclipped but now I'm scared to fly But this ain't stage fright Nigga this is e'ry night Fans screaming, stampeding Dan's speeding, movin' too fast I can't even walk in the store anymore Without a bunch of people standin' by the door Asking for an autograph, man I oughta spazz out But I gotta think about my daughter... Speakin' of her, me and her mother are goin' through some thangs Ever since -- man fuck it, I gotta take... I gotta take another drink, my bad (sips drink) My momma said I'm actin' brand new Said the fame changed me But that can't be true People that I used to call my buddy Only actin' buddy-buddy 'Cause they want some money from me And these honeys never came around before Now I'm gettin' love from all these dames while I'm on tour I wonder if they'd love me just the same if I was poor -- Yo, who's bangin' at my door? ("Six minutes, Danny Swain you're on!") Man I ain't comin' out this room until my pain is gone I...I need a couple seconds to sit and drink Uh, I mean THINK...damn I can't think Damn, what was I thinkin', I'm drinkin' again Whether I sink or I swim, I know I gave it my best Sometimes I -- I gotta, I gotta take another drink (pours drink) I'm lonely and I'm nervous and I'm scared Thought I wanted the fame, I guess I wasn't prepared To be an overnight sensation I hoped that I could take it in stride I went from open mics to Vegas and died Somewhere along the way; at least my sanity did I didn't plan to be big, I just -- (sips drink) I just wanted to shine wanted my rhymes to reach the people one at a time Funny how my small problems are all contributin' To my biggest issue of all: my alcohol addiction Is it me or is it...is it gettin' dark in here? Oh...shit....
