[xoco]
i’ve been down to the valley
i’ve been thinking about it lately
and i know i’ve been unruly
don’t know if i deserve it
yeah i’ve been down to the valley
i’ve been wasted forever
and i know when i come out of it
we’ll see if it was worth it
and then the real thing hits me
the pressure makes me stronger
i never like to go and open that door
but the pressure makes me stronger
with every step i go
hills make me want more
i’m your barometer
so we breathe and go under
we breathe in and go
[jdv plus]
i drive through these winding roads
to get to the studio
i’ve suffered my twists and turns
i’ve been lost in some valleys
when i'm drugged out i can’t help it
yeah
you're familiar yet far away
there’s nothing i can’t fix these days
i’m starting to learn how to help myself
i’m starting to earn my own true wealth
i drive through these winding roads
where they lead me i do not know
i’ve suffered my twists and turns
i’ve been lost in some valleys
but these days i can help it
