Um
Yeah
Thunderbird
Erik
Um
Yeah
Let's go

I was sixteen years old
When I 1st start to roll
I was whippin' slow
My girl told me to go
She had her momma's car keys
I was afraid of the speed
She told me all I need to do
Was believe in a dream
She said a drug dealer's destiny
Is reaching a key
And if you drug dealing then I think imma leave
Because ain't no Scarfaces
Ever made it out alive
And that's the same fate
That caught her brother in the ride
That's when I started to hide
All the things I would buy
She started looking at me funny
Cus I didn't have a job
She said I love the fact
You got all of this time
After school, I'm going to college
And I'm taking my ride
I said I'll be alright
Knowing I'm lying inside
If she leaves with all the rides
Then my money would die
I said how long I got?
Acting like I was surprised
She said about 2 months
I put my money aside

Hello
Hello
Hello
"Erik, Erik"
Can you hear me
Hello
Hello
Hello
"Why are trying to run away"
Hello!
"Remember the game needs you, I need you"
Is anybody there
Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello
"We've come so far"
Hello!
"Isn't this what you want?"
Hello
"What you said you wanted"
"Come back please"
Hello
Hello
Hello

I remember
Pullin' up on the 1st day of school
F*ck all the rules
Imma stunt so they think I was cool
I have my 1st ride
Nobody could tell me nothing
A tape deck
So the radio I was bumpin'
The speaker had a crack
So it f*cked with the sound
I rolled my window down
And drove around with a frown
It had a lot of miles
But at the time I didn't know
Freedom comes at a cost
On a car that's been drove
But f*ck it tho
All I wanted to do is ride
Show everyone I could drive
To get away from my pride
My phone rings
My girl on the other side
"I'm lonely I know you got a different life"
But try to find some time
To get away before I leave
You only got a week
Some come see me, please

Ugh c'mon, ugh, dammit
No
C'mon man
Damn!

"Hi Erik
Thank you for coming in
I'm Sara
And thank you for taking the steps to get some help
That's the 1st part of recovery
I want to start with the voices"
