I need a fix but not what you think
There's no green
No drink
I need a sip of positive things
No trips

Real dreams
I need a dose of nothing you roll up
I'm on the clock this time
And when I'm all done
And had a war won
You know I get real high

So
How do I get through
No sweat off my back
How do we get through this
Life's real
But that's what we live for

Come heavy as lead
Won't let nobody ever take me down
Hold steady my head when the world is crumbling all around

No pressure, no stress
I'm better, I'm best
When the dark surrounds
Come heavy as lead
Won't let nobody ever take me down

Hold up, hold up
Can we take a minute
Can we post up, post up
Gather our strength

Can we roll up, roll up
All the inner troubles
Let it burn up, burn up
Watch it rise through the air
And let it brighten up the sky tonight

We got a real light
And we prepared
And to my people, yeah, it's dark tonight
We got a real light
And we're not scared

How do I get through
Yeah, no sweat off my back
How do we get through this?
Life's real
But that's what we live for

Come heavy as lead
Won't let nobody ever take me down
Hold steady my head when the world is crumbling all around

No pressure, no stress
I'm better, I'm best
When the dark surrounds
Come heavy as lead
Won't let nobody ever take me down

Life's real but this is what we live for

Come heavy as lead
Won't let nobody ever take me down
Hold steady my head when the world is crumbling all around

No pressure, no stress
I'm better, I'm best
When the dark surrounds
Come heavy as lead
Won't let nobody ever take me down
