Why Bother Lyrics by Negative Zero (2)

Terrified but Hopeful

2023

[Intro: Gage]
Y-ya, I might, I might, uh, get a drink here in a second of something

[Verse 1: Gage]
Why bother
Try to live longer?
Prescribe me love, but it's a pill I can't swallow
Be stronger
Make peace with the trauma
Never learn the truth
So abandoned what they taught us
Push the same whip that was filled up with the product
Make a lot of Guala
Then dip out to Nevada
Spend it all on nada
Hanging with the Dali Lama
I'm a beast
I'm a monster in my head where I'm taller
Hit delete, got 'em
Pistol Pete shot 'em
Welcome to show
Watch me hit rock bottom
Drowning in the pain
Body filled up with toxins
How long will it be
Before we all get forgotten?
How long will it be
Before we all get forgotten?
How long will it be
Before we all get forgotten?

[Verse 2: Gage]
No good or evil
We are just people
Mentally stable
Don't put a label
We are the lab rats
Our memories won't last
We're all the same
We're all to blame
My glass is gone
(Gone)
(Gone)

[Chorus 1: Gage]
Not okay, yeah
I'm not okay
I wish I was okay
I just want this to be a dream
Gonna die
I never wanna die
But the doctor said
I won't get to see flying cars
People say I'm pessimistic
Pointless to be optimistic
Pointless to be realistic
Nothing is antagonistic
Nothing makes sense at all
Trust me, I've been to hell a few times

I got a drink by the way, if you was wondering
Uh

[Verse 3: Gage]
Why bother
Try to live longer?
I don’t show 'em love
Man, it feels like I’m stalling
This ain’t normal flow
Can’t you tell that I’m stronger?
Wolfs make money but the pigs get slaughtered
I don’t care bout you or your crewmates
The influence
Tell me who could do this
We don’t try and we better than you kid
Try to run up on me
Boy, you stupid
Got twin Glocks
I’m ruthless
Man, I wonder if I'll get through this
Raishi got the beat to get you groovin'
Final destination life losing

[Chorus 2: Gage]
Not okay, yeah
I'm not okay
I wish I was okay
I just want this to be a dream
Gonna die
I never wanna die
But the doctor said
I won't get to see flying cars
People say I'm pessimistic (I don't really try anymore)
Pointless to be optimistic (Laying, crying on the floor)
Pointless to be realistic (Waiting for the knock on the door)
Nothing is antagonistic (I don't really try anymore)
Nothing makes sense at all (I don't wanna try anymore)
(Laying, crying on the floor)
Trust me, I've been to hell a few times (Waiting for the knock on the door)
(I don't wanna try anymore)
I don't wanna try anymore
I don't wanna try anymore
Waiting for the knock on the door
I don't really, yeah
