Mourning Lyrics

[00:00.41] Don't want to sober up
[00:03.17] The sun is killing my buzz, that's why they call it "mourning"
[00:06.91] Thought I was strong enough
[00:09.32] Threw my bottle at the sky, said, "God that's a warning"
[00:13.34] Don't want to sober up
[00:16.14] Try to keep it inside, but I just want to pour it
[00:19.81] Thought I was strong enough
[00:22.65] Got a lot of shit to say, couldn't fit it in the chorus
[00:26.38] I just left Wally spend a Maserati
[00:29.43] The way I gotta flex, you'd think I did Pilates
[00:32.46] I called my quote on quote friends, "Do you got plans?"
[00:36.05] Turns out everyone's free when the dinner is
[00:39.79] Then they drag me to a party out in Malibu
[00:42.82] After 30 High Noons, it was pretty cool
[00:46.16] Tried to shoot my shot, she told me that she had a shoot, bye-bye (damn) (hick)
[00:52.27] Don't want to sober up
[00:54.85] The sun is killing my buzz, that's why they call it "mourning"
[00:58.66] Thought I was strong enough
[01:01.40] Threw my bottle at the sky, said, "God that's a warning"
[01:05.27] Don't want to sober up
[01:08.03] Try to keep it inside, but I just want to pour it
[01:11.60] Thought I was strong enough
[01:14.47] Got a lot of shit to say, couldn't fit it in the chorus
[01:18.15] Stumbling down a corridor, came across an open door
[01:21.52] Throwing up is easy, and who put on The Commodores?
[01:24.70] That's a nice tile floor, wish I got to know you more
[01:27.95] Who am I talking to? Nobody
[01:31.21] Take me outside, I'm a little too high
[01:34.07] Paid a little too much for the time of my life
[01:37.31] When money ain't a problem, everyone's sliding
[01:40.86] Even when I tell myself that I
[01:44.18] Don't want to sober up
[01:46.79] The sun is killing my buzz, that's why they call it "mourning"
[01:50.77] Thought I was strong enough (strong enough)
[01:53.40] Threw my bottle at the sky, said, "God that's a warning"
[01:57.13] Don't want to sober up
[02:00.01] Try to keep it inside, but I just want to pour it
[02:03.61] Thought I was strong enough
[02:06.48] Got a lot of shit to say, couldn't fit it in the chorus
[02:08.90]
