23 Lyrics by Nel Ocana

2023

[Verse 1]
Don't fuck with your fairy tales
New me, sad that I can't tell
Caught up in the past as well
Congrats we both made it through hell
New me always wishes for the best
Old me always saying I'm a mess
An experience God put us to the test
Time flies we got nothing to address
(Brrr!)
[Chorus]
Think someone's praying on my downfall
I pray that you live with positivity, no eyes to ball
Can never make sense
Live the past or presents
Call the cope in my defense, in my mechanism
[Post-Chorus]
And up the walls and down we go
Obstacles, the way we grow
Got to keep your head afloat
Don't get caught on mental overflow
(Happy birthday!)
[Verse 2]
Twenty-four hours of the day is what they say, yeah
And twenty-three is left for me to work and stay awake
But the balance makes sense
'Cause it never takes my problems
Out here with me, with you and your friends
Down on the loop, again and again
Life got me tripping, can we make it make sense?
Facade on my face like we playing pretend
[Bridge]
And I'm sorry
Don't miss you
And I'm sorry
Can't see through
And I'm sorry
No redoes
So hold on, it ain't life without the issues
[Pre-Chorus]
(Happy birthday!)
Happy birthday to the best that you ever had
And cheers to all the friends pulling up when sad
'Cause I'm not your friend just a clone
So just take me as I am
[Chorus]
Think someone's praying on my downfall
I pray that you live with positivity, no eyes to ball
Can never make sense
Live the past or presents
Call the cope in my defense, in my mechanism
[Post-Chorus]
And up the walls and down we go
Obstacles, the way we grow
Got to keep your head afloat
Don't get caught on mental overflow
