Vertigo

[verse 1]
What am I to do
Wander streets until the dead end, do I got a clue
Lost inside my head and heart but, that ain't nothing new
Carrying the weight of the universe inside my shoes (yeah)
I know the light gon shine for me, if it's the last thing it do
I still had some cover, when I ain't had a roof
Keep my chin down on the road now don't need to see the views
Yeah, I can see the stars but I still want the moon
Yeah
Till the wheels go loose
Tryna make more than I got
What do I got to lose
Even though I still got problems I can make it through
Regardless
Yeah

[pre-Chorus]
Oo Oo Oo Oo hm
These highs and the lows
Oo Oo Oo Oo hm
So how can I fold
Oo Oo Oo Oo hm
Can't just take it slow, slow, oh

[Chorus]
Hm
Like a roller coaster
That's the way it goes
(go, go, go, go)
I'm sitting through
I'm sitting through, the vertigo
Like a roller coaster
That's the way it goes, ah
(go, go, go, go, go, go)
I'm sitting through
I'm sitting through, the vertigo

[verse 2]
Yeah
Tried my best but I can't stay focused (yeah)
Losing my mind dropping the closest
Feeling the waves
Feeling the forces
Who do I turn to when I'm alone and I need 'em the mostest
No I can't seem to shake the shade
Fade away
All my demons creeping in when I tried to keep pain away
Need to find a better way
When the medicine isn't potent
Navigating emotions
Spending energy holding on
Holding on
Why you tripping on older scars
Older scars
Keep myself at a high regard
High re-
Like a toast we gon lift up the spirits
If it's cap then I don't wanna hear it
Only truth in my ear not a -
Shh

[pre-Chorus]
Oo Oo Oo Oo hm
These highs and the lows
Oo Oo Oo Oo hm
So how can I fold
Oo Oo Oo Oo hm
Can't just take it slow, slow

[Chorus]
Hm
Like a roller coaster
That's the way it goes
(go, go, go, go)
I'm sitting through
I'm sitting through, the vertigo
Like a roller coaster
That's the way it goes
(go, go, go, go, go, go)
I'm sitting through
I'm sitting through, the vertigo

[outro from movie Dead Poets Society]
"Mr. Anderson thinks that everything inside him is worthless and embarrassing
Isn’t that right, Todd? Well, I think you’re wrong. I think you have something inside of you that is worth a great deal
Now, Todd, I would like you to give us a demonstration of a barbaric yawp."
"Yawp."
"Come on, louder."
"Yawp"
"No, that's a mouse. Come on. Louder."
"Yawp!"
"There it is. You see, you have a
Barbarian in you, after all. Now, you
Don't get away that easy."
