So sick and tired of feeling down
Just want to feel better and feel it now
Give me a pill, or give me a drink
Whatever it takes so I don't have to think
But I don't want to settle for that quick fix
I know in the end it won't solve shit
I need to look inside and find the reasons why
My problems exist and work them out in time
I need delayed gratification
The path to happiness requires patience
A short term solution for a long term problem
Is it any surprise that you're still downtrodden
Controlled by the desire to escape reality
You'd rather live a fantasy than feel anything
But good things come to those who wait
So don't let temptation control your fate
The easy way out is only a dead end street
It leads to nowhere but self-defeat
I need delayed gratification
The path to happiness requires patience
