Key: D major•
Verse 1
swallows souls
And when the blues unfold
It gets cold silence burns holes
You're going mad
Perhaps you always were
But when things was good you
just didn't care
This is called irony
When you most need to get up
you got no energy
Time and time shit'll happen
The dark shit's unwrapping
But no-one's listening listening
your mates are laughing
Your brethren's fucking and
then you start hating
Your stomach starts churning and you
mind starts turning.
So smoke another draw
It won't matter no more but the
next day still feels sore
Rain taps on your window
Always did tho but you didn't hear
it when things were so-so
You're You're on your own now
Your little zone you were born alone and
believe me you'll die alone
Weed becomes a chore
You want the buzz back so you
follow the others onto smack
Verse 2
Just trying to stay positive
Just trying to stay positive

Verse 3
Good thing about brown is it always will
It's easy, no-one blames blames you
It's that world out
there that's fucked you
You know less of a person
and if God exists
He still loves you
Just remember that - the more you sink
the further back from that brink
Maybe you've lifetime scars and you
think tattoos might be more fitting
But who's picking?
Searching for yourself
you find demons
Try and be a freeman and grasp
that talisman
'Cause your the same as I am
We all need our fellow man
We all need our Samaritan.
Maybe I'm better looking than you tho
Maybe I've got more dough - but
am I happier... no.
Get the love of a good girl and your world will
be much richer than my world
And your happiness will uncurl
Verse 4

Verse 5
People who say that
are blaspheming
They're doing nine to five
and moaning
And they don't want you succeeding
when they've blown it
And you idols - who are they?
They too dreamt about their day
Positive steps will see your goals.
Whether it's dollars or control, feel the gold.
I ain't helping you climb the ladder
I'm busy climbing mine.
That's how it's been since
the dawn of time
If you reach a cul-de-sac
The The The world turns it's back
This is you zone, it's like blackjack
He might get the ace
or the top one
So organize your two's and three's into
a run then you'll have fucked him son
And for that you'll be the better one
One last thing before you go though
When you feel better tomorrow
you'll be a hero
But never forget today.
you could be back here
Things can stray
What if you see me in that window?
You won't help me I know.
That's cool,
just keep walking where you go.
Carry on through the estate,
stare at the geezers so they know you ain't lightweight
And go see your mates
And when they don't look happy
Play them this tape
Verse 6
Just trying to stay positive

Verse 7
Just trying to stay positive
I ain't no preaching fucker and I
ain't no do-goody-goody either
either
either
This is about when shit goes pear-shaped
And And if you aren't or ever have been at rock bottom
then good luck to you in the big wide world
But remember that one day shit
might just start crumbling
Your bird might fuck off or you might
loose your job
It's when that happens that what I'm talking
about will feel much more important to you
So if you ain't feeling it,
just be thankful that everything's cool in your world
