Tantric - Down & Out

I'm comin'
up for air so I can

Check
myself again and I stand

Proven to
the man but sheltered

Confidence
we tend to (shove in)

Unexpected
hunger traps me

Just shut
up and stand beside me

I don't need
your understanding

I don't
need to change a damn thing

And though
I'm used to help you here

It doesn't
change the man I was

When you
found me and there was no else around me

Just turn
the page and watch me grow

There's so
many things you don't know about my soul

Live and
die but this will not get old

Just when
you think that you're down and out

Don't
preconceive what I'm all about

Look for a
reason that you have to start

Acting like
a friend that you were not

And when
you think that we played it out

We come
from the bottom and knock it out

Look for a
reason that you have to start

Acting like
a friend but you were not, yeah

Nothing in
between to fall through

I'm being
myself, who are you?

You stand
above and look down

You're just
a plagiaristic clown

You suck
the life out of me

You keep
track of the payee

And when
this wealth becomes dry

You'll shed
a tear for another lie

And though
I'm used to help you here

It doesn't
change the man I was

When you
found me and there was no else around me

Just turn
the page and watch me grow

There's so
many things you don't know about my soul

Live and
die but this will not get old

Just when
you think that you're down and out

Don't
preconceive what I'm all about

Look for a reason
that you have to start

Acting like
a friend that you were not

And when
you think that we played it out

We come
from the bottom and knock it out

Look for a
reason that you have to start

Acting like
a friend but you were not, yeah

And though
I'm used to help you here

It doesn't
change the man I was

When you
found me and there was no else around me

Yeah, yeah,
ohhh

Just when
you think that you're down and out

Don't
preconceive what I'm all about

Look for a
reason that you have to start

Acting like
a friend that you were not

And when
you think that we played it out

We come
from the bottom and knock it out

Look for a
reason that you have to start

Acting like
a friend but you were not, yeah
