It's not a solid, not a soft thing
To pull the wool up like a smoke screen
Nobody does it like a prophet
It's gone before you know you lost it
There are reasons you keep your hands tied
There's certain things you shouldn't have tried
So if you've got it tell me something
You better go from the beginning
We all forget to sleep
We crash at someone's feet
Everybody skips a beat
We let the chances pass
The few we held so fast
Everybody breaks a glass
And here I'm standing in the middle
Not just a little but a handful
Wondering how I got a head cold
Wishing I didn't know what I know
It's never been about the money
We're worthy, oh you're not worthy
However much you've got on your plate
You're as good as you reciprocate
We all pretend to keep
A tongue out of our cheek
Everyone's the fool they seek
We all go off the track
And feel for our way back
Everybody breaks a glass
Everybody breaks a glass
(Yeah, Shad)
Scared of looking peers when we peer back
It's weird how we fear that
It's weird how we wear a mask
It appears that we fear our own tears more than tear gas
My team's struggling in years past
Looking to draft beer to bring cheers back
But then the drinking game's finished
No more Guinness it's a clear glass
Seein' a real image mirrored back
The places that we go, the cold is so strange
When we're old and folks don't change
Tryna' hang we don't know the ropes
When we fall we get more than our shoulders broke
It's no game
That's why we overdose on cocaine
Get our brains comatoses, no blame
If you've ever known shame, known pain
Known days when you really don't feel okay
(Ah, okay)
Somewhere perfection lies
But not for you and I
Everybody trips sometimes
When cities fall like shacks
Walls eventually crack
Everybody breaks a glass
