  • Duh-duh-duh, duh, duh, duh
    As he falls back deeper, into a state
    The return (Dot Da Genius, baby, Daytrip took it to ten, hey)

    Nights my mind is speedin' by, I'm holdin' on
    Askin' God to help 'em, are you hearin' me?
    Girl is tellin' me she don't know what she want
    Lotta demons creepin' up, they livin' underneath
    Gotta take a minute, y'all, traveled far
    Feelin' somethin', no, I can't ignore my instincts
    Back, just where I started
    It's the same old damaged song, it's the shit I need

    Tryna find it on the right track
    Oh, wanna be just where the free at
    Hm, talk to Him, He don't speak back
    Hm, can't lose Him in the third act
    Lord seein' me swerve
    Do this to my loved ones, I've got some nerve
    Don't think I'm not sorry

    Hm, hear me now, hey
    This time I'm ready for it
    Can't stop this war in me
    Can't stop this war in me, in me, in me
    Hm, hear me now, hey
    This time I'm ready for it
    This fight, this war in me
    This fight, this war in me, in me, in me

    Hm, I been here before
    Hm, hm, I been here before, hm
    Can't stop this war in me
    Can't stop this war in me, in me, in me
    As the story goes, hey, hey
    As the story goes, hm
    This fight, this war in me
    This fight, this war in me, in me, in me

    (Yeah) standin' on the cliff right off Mulholland Drive
    (Yeah) back I'm on my late night session remedy
    (Oh) somethin' 'bout the night that keep me safe and warm
    Just me, the universe and everything I think
    Lotta shit that's weighing on me, it's a storm
    Never thought I would be back here bleeding
    I'm not just some sad dude
    You could see my life, how I grew, I want serenity

    Tryna find it on the right track
    Oh, wanna be just where the free at
    Hm, talk to Him, He don't speak back
    Hm, can't lose Him in the third act
    See it seems I'll never learn
    I won't stop 'til I crash and burned
    Tell my mom I'm sorry

    Hm, hear me now, hey
    This time I'm ready for it
    Can't stop this war in me
    Can't stop this war in me, in me, in me
    Hm, hear me now, hey
    This time I'm ready for it
    This fight, this war in me
    This fight, this war in me, in me, in me

    I been here before, hey, hey
    I been here before, hm
    Can't stop this war in me
    Can't stop this war in me, in me, in me
    And the story goes, hey, hey
    As the story goes, hm
    This fight, this war in me
    This fight, this war in me, in me, in me Writer/s: David Biral, Denzel Michael-Akil Baptiste, Oladipo O. Omishore, Scott Ramon Seguro Mescudi, William Dennis Cummings
