Matthew Tuck - Poison lyrics

Artist: Matthew Tuck

album: Poison


We raise our glass just to try to drown the voices
Ignoring what we have we'd rather drink our poison
Tell me now what do you see
I keep my thoughts under lock and key
Once I start there is no stopping me
Fighting uphill it feels like I gotta be
Cause I've always bottled my pain
Once I uncork it I fight it for days
Sometimes I'd rather drown in self-hatred
Than focus on things that could take it away
I don't like going to parties but I still hope I'm invited
I don't let people admit that they know me
I like to keep my business private
They talk about pain and I'm silent
Cause I like to keep my flaws quiet
It's the life I created God's calling me David
When I tell him my problems are Giant
We raise our glass without noticing the poison
It hasn't killed us yet so we question all our choices
We raise our glass just to try to drown the voices
Ignoring what we have we'd rather drink our poison
What is your poison
What is your poison
We try to ignore it
Try to ignore it
We'd rather be numb than to feel our emotions
What is your poison
What is your poison
We all have a vice that comes at a price
Now take back your life and give up the poison
Yo I'm off the potion I live in the moment
These different emotions not easy to cope with
At times I was hopeless the feeling was growing
Was trapped in a cell in my mind till it opened
I'm seeing things differently now
Look in the eyes of the crowd
I know that I can't let them down
I know that they won't let me down
So I jump on it
This ain't no lil' pump
Spitting real from the jump
And they ask how I stuck for em'
Cause they live by it it's enough for em'
So I drink before the show smoke after
It helps me sleep when my minds too active
And the alcohol makes women more attractive
And they all shallow I can see what they lackin'
Wanna see what I'm packin'
Wanna sleep on a mattress
Wanna get in my pockets
It ain't easy to access
My demeanor done shifted
I've had a lot of practice
Now I'm older wiser cut from different fabric
What these kids imagine I've done it three times
The word plays crazy I don't repeat lines
I give em' a 16 they're giving the kid green
I lift their career up then I give em' a peace sign
I'm out of it there ain't no doubting it
Don't put it out if you're looking for clout but you really ain't proud of it
Don't ride the wave I swear that you gon' drown in it
See I found my poison then I made a vaccine
Conditioned myself for the role like athletes
Run the game every track the track meet
They're getting the knowledge every time the Zach speaks
We raise our glass without noticing the poison
It hasn't killed us yet so we question all our choices
We raise our glass just to try to drown the voices
Ignoring what we have we'd rather drink our poison
What is your poison
What is your poison
We try to ignore it
Try to ignore it
We'd rather be numb than to feel our emotions
What is your poison
What is your poison
We all have a vice that comes at a price
Now take back your life and give up the poison
What is your vice
Is it taking your life
Do you even think twice
Can you give up the fight
What is your vice
Is it taking your life
Do you even think twice
Never give up the fight
