Adrift Lyrics by Corduroy McLellan

Adrift (Single)

2022

[Verse 1]:
I wish I had luck like throwing pennies in a well
Hard to figure out just how far that i. fell
Haven't felt right in a while now it's effecting my health
You ever wondered why you woke up trapped inside of a cell?
Let me be honest, yeah I'm scared, but I don't want to admit
I'm so confused and everything around continues to spin
But I am stuck in place almost like somebody got me pinned
Everyday on repeat and again and again
I'm so done with fake people tryna act like they all know me
Yesterday you saw me but the love is what you didn't show me
Didn't say a word and all you did was act like you have grown me to a better person, but you didn't, I am still the old me
How could you do this? Out here wasting my time
I thought that you cared about me could write positive rhymes
But now I got the pad and pen and the control in my mind
Time to vent out all the anger let it hang on the lines
[Chorus]:
You sink or you swim but I don't think we have a choice
I feel like I'm yelling but you can't hear my voice
Maybe things will change or rearrange for the best
The boat that we're on doesn't have a life vest

[Verse 2]:
Every single line I write ends up feeling the same
Waking up, open my eyes and see that nothing has changed
I'm in the waiting game feelin' more confused by the day
Is there a reason I'm awake or am I taking up space
My boy just dropped a track and now I guess that we're through
Never thought we'd end like this honestly I don't know what to do
I try to put it rest, an early curfew
Sick to my stomach need to OD on some Thera-flu
I try my hardest to believe I'm not alone in life
Then I realize nobody's over here on my side
Got these doubts in my head, haven't seen it in a while
We used to talk all the time but now I can't see your smile
When it rains it pours and lately I've been learning this lesson
Everything that stacks quickly falls and makes a mess and now I'm crushed under the rubble weighing on me like depression
It's cool though, no reason for the search team to be stressin'
[Chorus]:
You sink or you swim but I don't think we have a choice
I feel like I'm yelling but you can't hear my voice
Maybe things will change or rearrange for the best
The boat that we're on doesn't have a life vest
X2
[Verse 3]:
Everywhere I look all I'm seeing is space
I feel so alone, but I've learned that's okay
I went looking for myself I guess for my own sake
Seems that I was lost before I became awake
By now I'm sure you realize I'm lying to myself
When the questions come my way I just put 'em on the shelf
Let all the dust collect like I'm stacking up wealth
The inheritance you'll get really won't be much help
Ain't that crazy, I'm aware of all the problems in my life
Yet I don't take the time to solve 'em like I got too much pride
A vicious cycle that I live in like Lance on a bike
Hope you never find out until you get to this line
Stuff in my life that I would never condone
Sometimes I dream of a cliff leading to the unknown
A careful step to the edge and then I curl my toes
As my weight begins to lean I think about my last note
[Chorus]:
You sink or you swim but I don't think we have a choice
I feel like I'm yelling but you can't hear my voice
Maybe things will change or rearrange for the best
The boat that we're on doesn't have a life vest
X2
