Yeah
Well, my good days are exactly like the bad ones
My bitch say that I defy the laws of attraction
I've always been terrified of endin' up normal (normal)
Things that we all search for end up findin' us
God is like the school bell, He gon' tell you when your time is up
Shit just end up workin' out, why do we wonder why it does? (Why it does)
Yeah, so I asked God to take me on a perfect date
Swear I saw Him cryin', don't know why everyone sure it's rain
Education system, but I feel we only learn from change
Every time I think about it, shit just starts to hurt my brain
Problems we can't solve always seem to be my favorite ones
Life just gets so boring, playing superhero makes it fun (fun)
But why is "heroism" so close to "heroin"? (Heroin)
We are what we believe in
There is no such thing as freedom
But what can we do? What can we do?
'Cause I see the light at the end of the tunnel (yeah)
It feels like I'm dyin', dyin' (yeah), dyin'
I'm dead
They tell you that you need to sleep, and suddenly you do
Scared you gonna wake up as someone who isn't you
We've all been down that road before, poured alcohol on open sores
Nobody can hurt me if I go inside and close the door
Not scared of growin' old and dyin', feel this where the answer lives
You wear the garments, everybody needs to dress some manikins (manikins)
We are what we believe in
There is no such thing as dreamin'
But what can we do? What can we do?
'Cause I see the light at the end of the tunnel
It feels like I'm dyin', dyin', dyin'
I'm dead
Make some noise

About this song
Mac Miller was an American rapper and singer from Pittsburgh whose genre-spanning hip-hop combined party-starting beginnings with introspective, often jazzy and philosophical songwriting. He first broke through with the mainstream success of Blue Slide Park and later became a self-produced auteur credited under the name Larry Fisherman, known for candid material that culminated in his final album Swimming.
