Burning Out Lyrics by C-Trox

2016

[Verse 1: C-Trox]
I woke up yesterday, I shot my mom a text
I said mama I love you I'ma give this my best
She asked me how I'm doing, how I'm dealing with the stress
I said I'm good but the truth is that my life is a mess
Uh, so for now I've been blaming it on these women
It's crazy how good pussy is blinding, when you make decisions
Mix it up with real shitty timing that we're given
It makes it hard to believe I'll be good, but I got a vision
I see myself on big stages, just keep rapping
I'm down to do whatever the fuck it takes, to make it happen
And I'ma keep calling out the fakes, like some fashion
Lately Trox been moving all over the states, he's gaining traction
But that could slip, with one wrong move
That's why I tighten up my grip, with each and every fucking song I choose
Well life's a game, I make a lot of moves
I think that I can see a victory coming, but I got a lot to lose

[Chorus: Anthony Russo]
Someone stoke that fire for me
'Cause my light is getting dim
The days are getting shorter and the night is moving in
I can't keep this pace forever
So I'll put the work in now
But I need changing
'Cause baby, I'm burning out

[Verse 2: C-Trox]
It's senior year of college, I truly can't believe it
Always knew I would finish, I did it for a reason
For my mom and my pops, and my professors teaching
For myself, cause I won't ever be a quitter leaving
Up late every night, I write till early morning
Start getting ready for class, and keep on putting work in
I don't question myself, with whether this is worth it
I just look at my bank, and check my monthly earnings
Eyes saggy but my pay checks are looking up
The week's shit, but my weekends are booking up
Doings shows in fraternities for these different schools
Blacked out going crazy, so they think I'm cool
Praying, I don't wanna be someone that's not me
Now I'm in the limelight, there's no one there to stop me
Thank my fans, I know you're looking out
But the pressure, I think I'm burnin' out

[Chorus: Anthony Russo]
Someone stoke that fire for me
'Cause my light is getting dim
The days are getting shorter and the night is moving in
I can't keep this pace forever
So I'll put the work in now
But I need changing
'Cause baby, I'm burning out

[Refrain: Anthony Russo]
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning
Burning out
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning
Burning out
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning
Burning out
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning

[Outro: Anthony Russo]
Someone stoke that fire for me
'Cause my light is getting dim
The days are getting shorter and the night is moving in
I can't keep this pace forever
So I'll put the work in now
But I need changing
'Cause baby, I'm burning out
Someone stoke that fire for me
'Cause my light is getting dim
The days are getting shorter and the night is moving in
I can't keep this pace forever
So I'll put the work in now
But I need changing
Cause baby, I'm burning out
