Been abouta year since I had a drink

Been abouta year since I talked to my brother

Lost love again I think I'm on the brink

But the irony is getting everything else that you wanted

Been abouta year since I had a drink

But everything I want is at the bottom of a bottle

Wish I was dumb and I wouldn't overthink

And I wish I was nice and more like my mother

Oh how come it never goes

The way that you ******* planned it?

No

Like I'm slow

Like I'm a ******* joke

Like God's somewhere up there laughing

Well where's my baby?

Where's my diamonds?

Where's the famous silver lining I was promised?

To be honest

Life is falling kinda short

Where's my baby?

Where's my diamonds?

Where's the famous silver lining I was promised?

To be honest

Life is falling kinda short

From what was I was sold

From what I was told

I got fool's gold

The future ain't nothing but some fool's gold

Been abouta year since I had a drink

But mushrooms 'gwan cause I'm California sober

Lost love again I think I got a kink

For anyone available who wants to **** me over

Been abouta year since I had a drink

Bought a crib in L.A. but I'm only getting colder

Wish I was dumb and I wouldn't overthink

But it's only getting worse and I'm only getting older

Oh how come it never goes

The way that you ******* planned it?

Like I'm slow

Like it's a ******* joke

Like God's somewhere up there laughing

Well where's my baby?

Where's my diamonds?

Where's the famous silver lining?

I was promised

To be honest

Life is falling kinda short

Where's my baby?

Where's the diamonds?

Where's the famous silver lining?

I was promised

To be honest

Life is falling kinda short

From what was I was sold

Yeah

From what I was told

I got fool's gold

The future ain't nothing but some fool's gold
