Lyrics

Explode

[Chorus: Jelly Roll]

Explode, explode, explode, explode

And that's the only way left to go

Explode, explode, explode, explode

I'm really out in no time, no

[Verse 1: Jelly Roll]

I heard that the liquor and a bag of bud

Helps me forget what my problems was

I need a buzz, I need some love

I need a little something that can pick me up

Light it up and get so high

Feel like I can kiss the sky

And I heard you're so low

So I don't explode

How can I continue when I'm dealing with these issues?

Put my problеms in the paper and I roll 'em up

Ain't no sеnse in me stressing, I'll just have another session

Tell 'em I don't give a fuck, I'll take another puff

Feel like I've been kicked and bruised

Feel like I'm at the bottom, ain't got shit to lose

Been flipped and fooled, fuck it I've been tricked and used

This shit was cool until somebody lit the fuse

[Chorus: Jelly Roll]

Explode, explode, explode, explode

And that's the only way left to go

Explode, explode, explode, explode

I'm really out in no time, no

[Post-Chorus: Jelly Roll]

Eyes half shut

Windows down with my middle fingers up (With my middle fingers up)

I'm so sick of bad luck (Bad luck)

Fuck the world, let me roll one up (Let me roll one up)

It's just one of those days (It's just one of those days)

That I don't give a fuck (That I don't give a fuck)

It's just one of those days (It's just one of those days)

That I don't give a fuck (That I don't give a fuck)

[Verse 2: Chris Webby]

Listen

Try'na tell myself that shit' getting better

But got them demons in my mind, it's like my head is forever

With this depression at the center of my mental, I've entered

Into a new dimension, where there ain't a day of sunny weather

Tried to pull myself up out of it with shit that I'm taking

With no prescription written in the [?] of medication

With these downers when I'm down, it's a hell of a combination

And I'm filling up with stimulants to keep my concentration

And I've been fighting with my lady a lot

I can't even tell who's fault it is most of the time

Got these voices in my head, praying they stop

Got me crushing down pills and I'm blowing a line with rolled 20s

Thinking back when I had no money

Now I got it all, but still feel like there's nobody

Who could ever understand what I feel inside

But I'm a Phoenix, so still I rise, it won't stop me

Webby

[Chorus: Jelly Roll]

Explode, explode, explode, explode

And that's the only way left to go

Explode, explode, explode, explode

I'm really out in no time, no

[Post-Chorus: Jelly Roll]

Eyes half shut

Windows down with my middle fingers up (With my middle fingers up)

I'm so sick of bad luck (Bad luck)

Fuck the world, let me roll one up (Let me roll one up)

It's just one of those days (It's just one of those days)

That I don't give a fuck (That I don't give a fuck)

It's just one of those days (It's just one of those days)

That I don't give a fuck (That I don't give a fuck)
