Verse 1:
There's nothing like spreading evil through your lungs
Then looking in the mirror just to see what you've become
Now you meet with hoo-d-lums from the streets & to the slums
Life's slipping through your fingers and it's leaking through ya thumbs
Quiet with lingo - yes - quiet with the lingo
Because look - if life's a gamble he's gonna die in this casino
But he hit rock bottom - (his) girl left and GOD got him
Hospital brought him back but after that the cops locked him
I told him he's got to start another plan
Then He looked disgusted - told me "it's too hard to understand"
You don't know what's it's like to give it all for another gram
Or even having pops leave and fist fighting your mother's man
I couldn't speak - he said to listen & just HOPE that's it's real
And if you've never felt regret don't say you know how I feel
Another bottle made him hollow - now he's closing the deal
Drowning all his sorrow getting close to them gills
And it hurts when they say he ain't trying - nobody's listening
Babymom's fed up - said he'd never see his kids again
If you lived this life results are probably the same
But who's to say? It's frustrating when nobody's the blame huh

Hook/Chorus: repeat 2x
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
(hey-ah hey-ah hey-ah dah)
Because the only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
(hey-ah hey-ah hey-ah dah)
Only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go

Verse 2:
I knew this girl
Her name was Rhonda
We were cool
Well, sorta kinda
Had a husband in the slammer - long sentence - no comma
She came to my shows - said she loved my stage presence
Said she knew I toured a lot, but please just stay present
It took her a long time to open up
At first I thought it was because she ain't wanna fall in love
I brought we to the crib and almost took the exchange
But then I said I wanted more - then she looked at me strange
Our relationship was cool - matter of fact - it was beautiful
Until One day we got way drunker than we usually do
Talking - we were laughing - we were drowning in compassion
Then she kissed me like that was the last time that it would happen
Til that point - I'd never felt a touch that right
So, I was fully convinced that I fell in love that night
She asked me for advice - then she asked me for it twice
Then her husband came back and then he asked me for my life

Hook/Chorus: repeat 2x
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
(hey-ah hey-ah hey-ah dah)
Because the only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
(hey-ah hey-ah hey-ah dah)
Only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go

Bridge:
Just let it play
Just let it work
Just let it breathe
Just let it hurt
Ok, because the only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
Only way to mellow
If for you to learn to let go
Just let it play
Just let it work
Just let it breathe
Just let it hurt
Ok, because the only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go
Only way to mellow
Is for you to learn to let go

Verse 3:
Not everybody's innocent - then again men have been afraid
A renegade - crying for help - begging for strength to pray
Everybody's got vices - for me it's the bottle
But who's the blame but myself & them streets of Chicago?
I thank my mom -
Because she was the one that put on the pressure
Told me to stay away until my sickness got better
But I missed my little sister so I got my shit together
She way my umbrella when I was under the weather

Outro hook: repeat 2x
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
Back back forth forth
Trying to find a reason
(hey-ah hey-ah hey-ah dah)
(hey-ah hey-ah hey-ah dah)
