Promises Lyrics by Niya Elan

Late Night Happy Hour

0

[Pre-Chorus]
I promised ma I'd put the bottle
Said one more sip and then I'll pour it out
But now I'm tripping someone hold me down
Because I don't wanna let her down
[Chorus]
I told myself just one more sip
Stopping me from gettin' rich
Another night of getting lit
Another morning feeling sick, sick, sick, sick
[Verse 1]
Why do I do it to myself?
Puttin my dreams up on the shelf so I
Don't have to face the great divide
Or re-evaluate my life
Stupid ain't it?
Burned to differing degrees
But we both still at graduation
'Cause liquor drowns impatience
And all thesе bottles aim to make me forgеt all those situations
Like that night I had you up pressed and sittin' up and waitin'
For me to stumble back home
Life seemed like a desert road to me
And you told me that I could be free
But I just want a future based on you and me
[Chorus]
I told myself just one more sip
Stopping me from gettin' rich
Another night of getting lit
Another morning feeling sick, sick sick sick
[Bridge]
Cause I'm not a shrink but you can tell me all your problems
Cause I got the potion
Mixing cranberry and vodka
It's a lot to see
Life ain't a game
Yeah, it's more like the lottery
Stacking chips
You can my queen monopoly
Spent a stack on a six-pack of property
'Cause my family bought the stock in me
All these problems the depreciating part of me
[Pre-Chorus]
I promised ma I'd put the bottle down
Said one more sip and then I'll pour it out
But now I'm trippin' someone hold me down
Because I don't wanna let her down
[Chorus]
I told myself just one more sip
Stopping me from gettin' rich
Another night of getting lit
Another morning feeling sick, sick, sick, sick
[Verse 1]
Pour out the bottles
'Cause you know the end is
Flip the party on its head
Leave out the entrance
I got the pieces to the puzzle
Like I'm Tetris
You gotta search
Lost like my head is
[Pre-Chorus]
I promised ma I'd put the bottle down
Said one more sip and then I'll pour it out
But now I'm tripping someone hold me down
Because I don't wanna let her down
[Chorus]
I told myself just one more sip
Stopping me from gettin' rich
Another night of getting lit
Another morning feeling sick, sick, sick, sick
