Текст песни Just a Bitter Pill - David Bolton feat. Chris K

14 Years old and I'd had enough
The final day had come to call my bluff
24 Hours of this life was too much
They said that I would never be up to snuff
On that fateful day when I came home from school
Opened the pillbox and I broke the rules
Took the deadly cocktail to my room
Swallowed every damn pill and prayed for my doom
My father was too poor for white
My mother black and too polite
So I grew up on the outside with no identity
Haters told me that I was worthless
And I believed them
So I left no note no goodbyes

God can you hear me
I'm coming to you side
There's too much pain over here
Please forgive me but I'm tired
I know I'm weak
But believe me I have tried
Oh yeah death is just a bitter pill away
Oh Lord please give me a reason to stay

I know that life has ups and downs
All these twists and turns
I'm about to cause arson and I will let it burn
I've been thinking about what's gonna kill me fast
A gun, a knife, a pill, man I know the pain can't last
I was only 16 when I really felt it hard
Strength dashed out of me like it was Mario Kart
Cold sweats dripping out of my chest and my thighs
If this is the cost of being alive man that's a heavy price
I guess that heaven didn't want me
God had plans for me
Scripted out my life the lead cast of this movie
He said, Chris you my glory, priceless jewellery
You the type that I take when I want to make history
Truth be told the pain is heavy, God I can barely
Look myself in the mirror and feel that I am worthy
Man I know that it's dark before it's sunny
I know that it takes a bee to sting to get that honey
I know that if I'm getting gold I'm getting money
So I will brace myself and live it up for this journey

God can you hear me
I'm coming to you side
There's too much pain over here
Please forgive me but I'm tired
I know I'm weak
But believe me I have tried
Oh yeah death is just a bitter pill away
Oh Lord please give me a reason to stay

God can you hear me
I'm coming to you side
There's too much pain over here
Please forgive me but I'm tired
I know I'm weak
But believe me I have tried
Oh yeah death is just a bitter pill away
Oh Lord please give me a reason to stay
