[Verse 1]
I can see through this game
And how it's rigged in a way
You love to play but it don't pay
Looks like you're caught in a check mate
I'm changing my tune
Because I'm overwhelmed
You know I'm broke as hell
But in actuality
One hit will set you free

[Chorus]
Now I'm back on the music
I keep trying to kick this bad habit
I swear this is the last time (I'll let those notes pass me by)
I'm so used to it
I keep trying to kick this bad habit
I haven't sung my last line
I guess this music is a friend of mine


[Verse 2]
I've given up way too much (Given up way too much)
It's a young man's game, I'm out of touch
I'm tapping out
'Cause this society is really trying me
There is no guarantee
One hit will set you free

[Chorus]
Now I'm back on the music
I keep trying to kick this bad habit
I swear this is the last time (I'll let those notes pass me by)
I'm so used to it
I keep trying to kick this bad habit
I haven't sung my last line
I guess this music is a friend of mine
