Cody Pope - No Longer Following North lyrics

{Verse 1: Cody Pope} You at home watching re-runs wondering when it begun So much future wasted let’s face it, you could not see one Softer than snow in April, the cost of the soul that shake you A lot of the tolls you face are the cost of the mold that make you Won’t fall behind cause you wanna ride the coat tail That all behind, you on your own like a slow snail Check the box again but I’m telling you there’s no mail Didn’t get the bill or the check to pay it like oh well Oh well, another day in this cold hell The days got us in a daze like an old spell Told well, through the mongering of fear Got em closing up shop but still bottling the beer Odd and a little weird, they tellin me trim my beard Tell me to Simmer down while the fires getting seared People losing jobs and people losing homes Mobbing for toilet paper is probably my cue to go {Chorus} This planet funky, not meant for me This kinda thinking elementary Maybe another will fill the space that I leave I’m somewhere better you got the faith to believe X2 {Verse 2: Cody Pope} Since age 12 been battling with depression Know I’m not alone, so music became the weapon I can remember testing, suffocating myself Using my bedsheets til eventually tried the belt When I was young, no one, examine mental health At least not in my family or where we dwell These are things, people your age experience At times when I tried, thought I was near to it Took years before I took up taking substances But I tried them all, and man I really loved the sh*t My story similar, but also very different Cause there’s a lot of sh*t that I simply can’t mention More than detention, suspension, arrested, addicted More than religious confliction or criminally convicted Not so misguided, lying, tryna find something But in reality it always, always kept me running {Chorus} This planet funky, not meant for me This kinda thinking elementary Maybe another will fill the space that I leave I’m somewhere better you got the faith to believe X2
