Lyrics

Intro: At least half of this country has been diagnosed with what I am talking about-there are times in life when you don't have the strength and the courage to move on
This song is about depression and frustration and what it does to you it comes from me to you

Sometimes I feel my hope is gone
I don't have the strength to go on
My life is getting out of hand
Sometimes I just don't understand
Why I'm so
Frustrated-agitated you don't want to feel my
Anger or my sorrow-I feel like killing someone
As long as you are dealing with life ups and downs
It's a pain in your ass
You don't have the strength or nobody
You don't have no money so you can move for a better life
Ooh yeah so your frustration and your depression
Your depression has got you in another world
You cannot longer hide what you feel inside
That's when it gets the best of you it starts to make you ill

You cannot begin to go on
Cause your dreams are broken in life
You can't tell what's real you can't sleep whether its day or night
You can't sleep at night-can't function in the daytime
Your brain is on overload you can't take it oh!
Because your life is out of whack you're one step closer to a damn heartattack

Ooh yeah so your frustration and your depression
Your depression has got you in another world
You cannot longer hide what you feel inside
That's when it gets the best of you it starts to
It starts to make you ill.....

I want a better life yeah
A nice house, a nice car to drive
I cannot get that way because people are draining all my energy
Too much on my back
I don't know which way to turn
I'm so tired-of life with these struggles
I don't feel alright-I keep saying
I have to get down on my knees and start praying
Depression-frustration and depression
Hope to god it don't kill me it's killing me ooh

There are times in life when you don't have the strength and the courage to carry on
You grab the first thing that's hanging around
Whether its drugs, junk food, or a bottle of alcohol take it to get over your depression

Frustrated because you feel so jaded
You get dealt a stinkin hand people don't you know
Don't you understand-it's not easy for some of us
It's not easy for all of us
I am not where I want to be I can't wait to break free
Ooh yeah so your frustration and your depression
Your depression has got you in another world
You cannot longer hide what you feel inside...
