The way I live
Like an angry child
Who wants a mother
To calm them down
Always in trouble
Waist-deep
Freedom you found
But can't keep

Nobody's looking
When you're playing in that creek

I always had
To earn my whoopings
Life hands 'em out
When you didn't do nothing

We all have something
We're taking out on somebody
When you can't take anymore
Where does that go?
It flows downhill to me

Is all this hard stuff
Behind me?
Can I spend more time now
Not trying?
Always a plan
Just out of reach
Always someone
To keep happy

I come by it honest
I don't think too much on it
I got something worth, worth taking out on somebody
But when you can't take anymore
Where do you go?
You roll straight downhill to me

Straight downhill to me
Out here in the creek
