Turning Up the Bottle (Explicit) - RittZ

He was a cook at a dead-end job 26-years-old

She moved back to Atlanta

F**ked over by her father she had got disowned

He was a frustrated rapper that after so long he done quit and lost hope

She was addicted to meth

So was everybody living in her household

Both of them worked on the daytime shift

On break time kicked it the sparks just flew

She said she heard through the grapevine he had a girlfriend

He told her

Nah we're through

But what they had in common was a f**ked up life

Sh*t she experienced he had gone through too

Both of them thought that the world was against them

Childhood innocence gone too soon

They hooked up later she moved in

With him and his parents she was detoxing

He did meth too it helped him write songs

But he quit writing sh*t the minute she got clean

You would think that things got better but they didn't

Cause instead of doing drugs they'd just sit around and drink

Day in and day out cause they hate being sober

They broke as a joke and they think that

Everything is bad but it all seems OK

When we're turning up the bottle

Trying to see the sun but the sky seems so gray

Drowning in our sorrow

Oh oh ooh

Turning up the bottle

Oh oh ooh

Drowning in our sorrow

His parents kicked him out they was sick of the drinking it was constant

They moved in with her sister

And her fiance at the spot where her mom lived

Now they can drink without a conscience

No one was there to tell them it was time to grow up

She worked nights at the bar

But they shared one car

He would pick her up and drive home drunk

When they're drinking was the only time that life don't suck

Only problem was they would fight so much

Had to hide any guns in the house cause they might go nuts

Shoot each other or they might go f**k

It could go either way '09 came adios to '08

Both of them got laid off so did her mom and her sister

Facing foreclosure with nowhere to stay

No dough put away Ramon Noodles every night

They applied everywhere to try to get a job

Looking like white trash wearing hand-me-down clothes

To the job interviews still nobody ever called

Running out of time running out of alcohol

Maybe if they sobered up then the sh*t would change

But instead they keep on emptying the piggy bank

Up in the liquor store buying something cheap to drank because

Everything is bad but it all seems OK

When we're turning up the bottle

Trying to see the sun but the sky seems so gray

Drowning in our sorrow

Oh oh ooh

Turning up the bottle

Oh oh ooh

Drowning in our sorrow

He went to a specialist the doctor said he had an ulcer in his stomach

Probably cause he'd eat and then he'd tried to make himself throw up and vomit

Making room so he could drink cause he's a drunk

And he's a glutton but the combination's common

But the fact that he was young with stomach problems was alarming

But the ulcer wasn't cancerous right then he made a promise to his mama

He would quit he's full of sh*t he wasn't honest

Cause he only went a month and started chugging out the bottle

She was getting sick and always shaking she's afraid

Cause everything she ate was coming up one day she made a date

To see the doctor told him she's an alcoholic

So they checked her liver noticed the aluminum and fluids were below the level

Plus the color of her skin and eyes had turned a tone of yellow

Indicating that she may have got cirrhosis of the liver or maybe hepatitis

Maybe nothing told her not to drink a lick of liquor

But she never listens turning up that bottle

Next to nothing

Ya uh yeah
