Shot Of Reality

Been dealt losses and pains
In a world that turned its back on me
Shut out everything I need
Promise us fucking lies
Ask myself who I am
I don’t even understand
Won’t be the victim, won’t play the fool
That’s not for me
Can’t live my life that way
Always the hard way
Can’t strip my mind, my spirit won’t break
That’s not for me
Not for me
Shot of reality
In life, I’ve made mistakes
I’ll pay for them in time
Constant cycles, lows and highs
I’ve lost what meant most to me
Never really looked inside
Too afraid of what I’ll find
Won’t be the victim, won’t play the fool
That’s not for me
Can’t live my life that way
Always the hard way
Can’t strip my mind, my spirit won’t break
That’s not for me
Not for me
Shot of reality
Just looking for the pieces, a way to hold on
I’m starting to believe I don’t need anyone
I’ve been running for so long
Back to the bottle
Where do I belong?
You think you know and got it figured out
A slap to your face, shot of reality
Reality
A shot of reality
Life’s not fair
No one’s gonna help you through
Your friends are all fake
No one gives a fuck about you
