lyrics

How many times can I let you do this to me?
How many times can I fall for the same ol' shit?
How many times I've seen you round? How many times I've seen you drown?
How many times I just couldn't count?

I can't count on two hands and two feet
So I stretch out and reach for a fucking loose leaf
To prove the only reason that you need a fix
Is to get closer to the day that you lose me
Abuse me, misuse me, guess I got bad judgment
When we get pulled over and I'm a fucking suspect
You to admit blame is what I'd expect
But I have a feeling that you'd rather get chin checked
You used to be quiet, now you outspoken
Which is good eventhough I know you out smoking
Said that you'd quit, just another vow broken
At a show, peeking in the crowd hoping you'd be there
Early but I guess I'm your last thought
You more worried about what's in your fucking stash box
Need you to prepare for when this hits a CRASH stop!
And my mind takes over, here's the blastoff

How many times can I let you do this to me?
How many times can I fall for the same ol' shit?
How many times I've seen you round? How many times I've seen you drown?
How many times I just couldn't count?

I can't seem to run from it nor let it go
Maybe you too dumb, I should've said it slow
I can't support something I know's killing you inside
Tell me, "Don't hate on what you haven't tried"
Fine, fuck it, break a pill in half
Pull out your papers, we got time, let's kill a bag
Bet weeks pass and when I'm sober, I feel weak, crash
Can't sleep, have to get a valium or smoke some heesh, that's
What happened to you at a young age
Keep telling myself that you'll learn one day
Nothing but hell is what you putting yourself through
And frankly, I'm just sick of trying to help you
Just know I won't roll like you tryna roll
I know your priorities are finding dro
So I'm sure this is hitting you kinda slow
How many times have we been down this road?

How many times can I let you do this to me?
How many times can I fall for the same ol' shit?
How many times I've seen you round? How many times I've seen you drown?
How many times I just couldn't count?

Spend nights wondering when I'ma get the call
That you mixed the wrong pills and you hit the wall
Don't worry what bitch has the most the shit to talk
Cause you can slip and fall if you forget to crawl
Kick the ball, your life it does have meaning
Isn't asking for forgiveness what you learned at your meetings
But you sit there seething, mad that your even breathing
Without a pill or a blunt, you'd either be heaving or seizing up
And that's fucked, we're your family, don't lie to us
Don't get mad when they pull your license and you ride the bus
Shit happens and now we gotta find the trust
Please don't go before your time is up
Your my flesh and blood, I want you right next to us
When 30,000 are in the crowd throwing X's up
But one more lie, I'm not sure I can take it
You got a bad addiction and I pray that you break it

How many times can I let you do this to me?
How many times can I fall for the same ol' shit?
How many times I've seen you round? How many times I've seen you drown?
How many times I just couldn't count?
