Thoughts Lyrics by Local Boy

Local Boy Helps Himself

2021

[Intro]
Her from the country so her got to be funky, funky
Him from the city so him, got to be witty, witty

One, two, three, four

[Chorus]
Truthfully, I’m feeling lost
They tell me to ignore my thoughts
But that’s something you can never do
When they get ahold of you
When they get ahold of you
Lately I’ve been stuck in my head
Staring up at the ceiling, mind is rushing ahead
I can’t sleep
Getting difficult to breathe

[Verse 1]
Stayin up late night
In desperation
I need some help soon
To end this frustration
Running away, I keep running away
I’ve been pounding on this pavement running everyday shit
Running away I’m still running away
Can you point the right direction, point thе right direction to go?
I just wanna go home
Can you be thеre for me baby to help me back to my zone?
Because self-help ain’t helping me at all
They tell me my pain is all my fault
I don’t drink enough water
I don’t get enough sleep
I’m a negative self-talker and I don’t got self esteem

[Chorus]
Truthfully, I’m feeling lost
They tell me to ignore my thoughts
But that’s something you can never do
When they get ahold of you
When they get ahold of you
Lately I’ve been stuck in my head
Staring up at the ceiling, mind is rushing ahead
I can’t sleep
Getting difficult to breathe

[Pre-Bridge]
How about
We just break ‘em off with a little exercise one time
I’m gonna sing the bridge
And I want you, to sing along

[Bridge]
Healing is hard but I know I can do it
With you by my side I know I will get through it
Growing up is difficult, I’m caught up in my rituals
But when I see you smile it cures me just like it’s a miracle
Healing is hard but I know I can do it
With you by my side I know I will get through it
Growing up is difficult, I’m caught up in my rituals
But when I see you smile it cures me just like it’s a miracle

[Chorus]
Truthfully, I’m feeling lost
They tell me to ignore my thoughts
But that’s something you can never do
When they get ahold of you
When they get ahold of you
Lately I’ve been stuck in my head
Staring up at the ceiling, mind is rushing ahead
I can’t sleep
Getting difficult to breathe

[Outro]
True rock religion baby
