(Intro - muted piano chords and subtle 808s)
Yeah... uh...
Another day, same script, feelin' different though
Remember when we dreamed of this? Guess we didn't know...
The daily dosage, yeah, it hits you different, slow
Tryna stay afloat, but the current's got a undertow.
(Verse 1)
Sunrise creepin', but the shadows still remain
Woke up to notifications, more pressure on my brain
Gotta hustle, gotta grind, gotta make it in the game
But sometimes I just wanna chill, escape this worldly pain.
Job’s callin', deadlines loom, boss man on my back
Another meeting, pointless talks, feeling outta track
Paying bills, chasing dreams, ain't no time to relax
Just trying to keep my head up, where the future’s painted black.
(Chorus)
Daily dosage, a bitter pill, I gotta swallow it down
These ain't the dreams we talked about, back in our hometown
Lost in the city glow, feelin' like I'm gonna drown
But I keep pushin', keep breathin', wearin' that invisible crown.
(Verse 2)
Fake smiles, empty promises, all around I see
Everyone's chasing something, but what 'bout loyalty?
Relationships strained, feelings buried beneath the debris
Trying to find connection in this digital society.
Social media scrollin', highlight reel supreme
Everyone's perfect life, a manufactured dream
Comparing my reality, startin' to feel unseen
Just gotta remind myself, this ain't what it all would seem.
(Chorus)
Daily dosage, a bitter pill, I gotta swallow it down
These ain't the dreams we talked about, back in our hometown
Lost in the city glow, feelin' like I'm gonna drown
But I keep pushin', keep breathin', wearin' that invisible crown.
(Bridge)
Yeah, sometimes I just wanna pack it up, disappear
Find a quiet place where they ain't shedding no tears
But I got people countin' on me, face my deepest fears
So I lace up my boots again, wipe away all lingering sneers.
(Chorus)
Daily dosage, a bitter pill, I gotta swallow it down
These ain't the dreams we talked about, back in our hometown
Lost in the city glow, feelin' like I'm gonna drown
But I keep pushin', keep breathin', wearin' that invisible crown.
(Outro - fading piano chords and 808s)
Yeah... the daily dosage...
It ain't easy, but we gotta manage...
Keep your head up...
Yeah...
We'll figure it out...
OVO...
(Fade to silence)
