I'm Not Good At These Troubled Times

Liner Notes
Got a few more collabs out the door tonight and needed a palate cleanser. Grabbed the electric guitar and this came pouring out. Everything is a mess right now and sometimes there's hope and sometimes there's not, and it's hard to know which end is up sometimes, and this has all just been rattling around my brain for the last year.
Lyrics
Is it the second coming Is it just more of the same Is it that old awful poison We just gave it a name?
I don’t know what to tell you The smell’s been lingering in the air But more and more people seem to Point to something like it’s there
It’s too soon to feel like everything will be ok again But if not, what then?
I’m not good at these troubled times Confusion abounds as incredulity climbs And I’m tired of this cavalcade of corruption and crimes Because I’m not good at these troubled times
It’s always the same situation It’s always been sink or swim But now we’re talking about the amputation So we can save the limb
And it’s gotta get worse to get better I tell myself the same as we all do But how many times do you need to repeat it Before it feels true?
I wish I could find some solid ground to walk upon But it’s over and gone
I’m not good at these troubled times Confusion abounds as incredulity climbs And I’m tired of this cavalcade of corruption and crimes Because I’m not good at these troubled times
