LYRICS
I have done bad things
Did them to good people
Got no self control
it’s the root of my evil
Wage war in my head when I’m tryna keep it peaceful
A little feels good a little more gets lethal
Save me from myself

I been Caught up in the rip tide
For too long cuz it’s all I know
I been letting this shit slide
These bad habits they die too slow
Caught up in the rip tide
For too long cuz it’s all I know
I been letting this shit slide
If you love me let me go

I get high to leave
All these problems on the ground
Then to my surprise
They’re right there when I come back down
I do it like I’ve done before
A million times
A million and one
And I’ll lose my mind
Save me from myself

I been caught up in the rip tide
For too long cuz it’s all I know
I been letting this shit slide
These bad habits they die too slow
Caught up in the rip tide
For too long cuz it’s all I know
I been letting this shit slide
But if you love me let me go

Got pulled by the current
Now I’m running out of breath
Got dragged back down
Feel the water in my chest
I tried getting better
Did all of the twelve steps
Who ever woulda could
Who ever coulda guessed
The harder that I chase it
The further that it gets
The harder that I chase it

I been caught up in the rip tide
For too long cuz it’s all I know
I been letting this shit slide
These bad habits they die too slow
Caught up in the rip tide
For too long cuz it’s all I know
I been letting this shit slide
But if you love me let me go
