Hello world, how you feeling today?
my days been going great, I pissed some money away
bought a magazine that I'll probably never read
instead of buying healthy food, took myself to mickey dee's
put my head down, but I ain't trying to sleep
it's like I'm living in a nightmare or this nightmares living in me
and I might care if it wasn't for these beats
or this part time job keeping this hustle from the streets
yeah I been a fiend for the weed and the after toke smoke
all friendly, like Casper the ghost
I had it in me, stayed away from the coke
but some of my buddies bailed hard on the slopes
from Winnipeg, where they're fond of the snow
they make that money, snort it all up their nose
all together, stopped coming to my shows
just know, if you ever choose to go
I got tickets for ya

No matter where you are, where you're coming from
Ive been going through mood swings lately
No matter what you do, who you do it to
waiting for someone to save me
No matter where you're going, no slowing
Ive been haven these mood swings lately
Ive been down

Today I'm gonna break a record sleeping in
I'm gonna see if I can sleep from the morning to the evening
try to wake me up and I'll get mad
right now my minds cluttered no good times had
I've been dwelling on the past
how I'd come up short, and finish last
getting mad at my step dad
I left the house with a bottle of pills in my hand
all he did was laughed at me, looked like he was glad
best thing I could have done for myself
was move into my grandmothers house
I'll admit I needed help
I was lost, couldn't describe how I felt
pissed off is an understatement man, I wanted out
and my grandparents raised me, helped me
taught me bought bravery, prevented me from going to crazy
there's no amount of love I could show em
that could make it up to em
but I hope they know they really saved me

No matter who you are, where you come from
Ive been going through mood swings lately
No matter what you do, who you do it to
looking for something to save me
No matter where you're going, no slowing
I've been going through mood swings lately
I've been down

Yesterday I was dragging my feet
Today I'm gonna skip steps and dance to the beat
any emcee to cross me might have to retreat
I'll set fire to the stage with this hazardous heat
and when it rains it pours we cant ignore that
nor can we try to control the people treating em like door mats
grab the bull by the horns, ride that fucker through the barn door
turn it to a bus like you're on tour
fans buying CDs like they want more
so you give em encore, like its easy
but here's the thing about this man we call swing
you don't know him like I know em but you know him when he sings
that's enough to know him well, hell
singing's everything to him now pray to god his record sells
if it doesn't he'll be nothing to himself
through my life I carry two things
my music and my mood swings
