Turning Up The Bottle
Rittz

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

She moved back to Atlanta, fucked 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 the household

Both of them worked on the daytime shift

On break time, kicked it and 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 fucked up life

Shit she'd experience, he had gone through, too

Both of them thought that the world was against them

Childhood innocence gone too soon

They hooked up and then she moved in

With him and his parents, she was detoxing

He did meth, too, it helped him write songs

But he quit writing shit 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

[Hook: Rittz]

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, o-oh

Turning up the bottle

Oh, oh, o-oh

Drowning in our sorrow

[Verse 2]

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

They moved in with his sister and her fiance at the spot where her mom lived

Now they can drink without a conscious, 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 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 fuck

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, so nobody ever call

Running out of time, running out of alcohol

Maybe if they sobered up then the shit would change

But instead they keep on emptying the piggy bank

Up in the liquor store buying something cheap to drank, because

[Hook]

[Verse 3]

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

Probably cause he did 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 shit he wasn't honest

Cause he only went a month and started chugging another bottle

She was getting sick and always shaking, she's afraid

Cause everything she ate was coming up and when she made a date

To see the doctor, told him she's an alcoholic

So they checked her liver noticed the aluminum her [?] was way below the [?]

Plus the color of her skin and mouth and tongue is turning 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
