Ivan B - Need You Still Lyrics






[Keith Fontano:]
Baby put the bottle down
You don't need another one
No, you don't need another one
Girl, you don't need another one
Why you taking all those pills?
Don't you know that they will kill you?
Don't you know that we all need you?
Don't you know I need you still?

[Ivan B:]
I barely knew you back then
But man, the things I remember it's all in my mind
Tears on my face as I'm writing these lines
To imagine a place, If I asked are you fine
Didn't care, never talked, wasn't there, never called
Then you were gone, only thing I recall
Saw your girls face, no make-up
No smile, no feelings, no heart
She felt nothing at all
Like, what could I say?
How could I possibly say "It's okay"?
How could I not feel this anger inside me
I look at her now, and you made her this way
When you drank all them pills, yeah I killed her
Since then man I haven't seen the real her
Screaming in her pillow could you tell me did you hear her?
Even when she smiles, could you see that it still hurts
They might say that it's wrong to be bitter
But the more that she drank, the more she got sicker
No better, she killing her liver
You thought she'd be better but it's getting worst
Hollow like the bottle she's holding
She's trying to sleep, can't sleep to the morning
Every day is another performance
His pictures, memories, it's what she's been holding
She's blaming herself for the reason you left
You took every pills but she feels the effect
Family is in pieces, your friends are a mess
You left all your pain and you gave it to them
What did you think that would happen
Thought it'd be easy like she would move on
Hang out with her friends like nothing is wrong
They try to be strong but the moment you left
She was already gone

[Keith Fontano:]
Baby put the bottle down
I could hear you drowning now
I could hear you crying now
In your silence, I could hear you loud
Why you taking all these pills?
Don't you know that they can kill you?
Don't you know that you can heal?
Don't you know we need you still?

[Ivan B:]
Forgive me for my honesty
Its a blessing and a curse
Its a medicine that hurts
Its the only thing that works
Who could understand the things that you went trough?
It hurts cause I never even get to
Look at you in the eyes like "yeah brother I get you"
And even shake you hand and say "don't let the stress get you"
But you left scars that are here to stay
So many stars used for you to stay
So much pain that I see even to this day
They think of you when it starts to rain
Didn't know you was affecting me
What if someone close to me
Like, what if I was you and no one noticed me?
Spending time alone, yeah
I wonder who would wanna go broke with me
To the girl still crying on her sheets
I know you don't feel like it but know that you gotta eat
I know you think you need to but you don't gotta drink
Water's coming in but you don't gotta sink
I know it's hard to breathe, you just need to want to
Anything you need, babygirl I got you
Tell me what it is, tell me what you feel
Tell me you're alive, anything can heal
Maybe I don't understand, guess I never will
But if you're feeling broken now, I promise you can heal
Promise you can make it out, you don't gotta be scared
If you're feeling numb, I promise Ima' be there
You don't gotta figure it out, I need you to feel
Sometimes the ones who love us end up leaving us still
You don't need another bottle, you don't need another pill
You don't gotta smile but we all need you, still

[Keith Fontano:]
Baby put the bottle down
I could hear you drowning now
I could hear you crying now
In your silence, I could hear you loud
Why you taking all these pills?
Don't you know that they can kill you?
Don't you know that you can heal?
Don't you know we need you still?

[Ivan B:]
Yeah, look at the music we listen to
Bottles and bottles, gimme another one
Killing ourselves and we're killing each other
The phrase that I'm hearing is "having fun"
Numbing my feelings so we can feel something
How does that make any sense?
They tell me relax, have a great time
They see kids who don't know they're depressed
They bottled it up, now they're shooting it out
Hitting students all over their chest
And they wonder what was the reason
He was just fine, saw him last night and he had a good time
Wasn't depressed, he was out of his mind
Who would've known he was out of it
Guess it was only a matter of time
There's more to perceive than what you see in your eyes
Look at the time that we live in our lives
No emotions, I see them concealing it
Instead of dealing with problems
They hand you a drink like "forget it, you don't gotta deal with it"
That's the world that we live in, I'm sick of it
Want no part of the world that I'm living in
If you cared just a little bit, felt just a little bit
Things would've been a little different

    This describes my sister so much it hurts. I'm just trying to get through life without her now, it's been 5 years since she passed from liver damage at age 33. I'd give anything to have her here. So many times I've fought with her and begged her to stop. 💔🥺💔🥺

  14. J.... Z....

    This so sad, powerful and relatable. We live in a world of broken people. Anyone can fake a smile. Always remember that we never know what someone is truly going through. Please be kind and careful with peoples’ hearts. That goes for relationships, friendships, peers, family *and* strangers. I am talking to everyone, myself included. To everyone reading this: you are loved and YOU *ARE* enough. Whatever situation you find yourself in, whatever obstacles you may be facing just know that you are never alone. We are all human and we all bleed the same regardless of finances, race, religion etc. 💙 blessings and love.... Namasté 💜✌🏻

  15. m.... g....

    I lost my mom to alcoholism ..and I’m lost ..barely hanging onto sanity but I put on a good front when all I wanna do is not exist 🖤🖤🚶🏻‍♀️🚶🏻‍♀️🚶🏻‍♀️

  16. 2.... 6....

    I WISH I could be loved and unbroken! My mind is broken into FRAGMENTS! THE ONLY THING THAT MAKES SENSE IS THAT NOTHING MAKES SENSE!

    2.... 6....

    Twenty Six please know that you are never alone. You will not always be able to make sense of things, believe me; I try to everyday but there are some things that take time to be revealed to us, to teach us lessons and make us stronger and wiser. While on the other hand, I have accepted the fact that our human brains just aren’t designed to comprehend all of life’s mysteries including the “whys” as much as it wants to. You sound like you’re very inquisitive about life and that’s a beautiful thing, just don’t let it consume you to a point where it threatens your peace. I am broken too - broken hearted. It’s the worst feeling in the world. I won’t sugarcoat it for you, because I’ve been dealing with my situation for nearly four years now. I don’t know when I’ll fully get over it, or if I ever will. The only thing that I can promise you for sure is that it does become easier with time. I am sending good vibes and positive energy your way. Stay strong. 💜✌🏻 Namasté

I hope everyone who suffers from this terrible thing called depression hears this song. 😭❤️

  39. M.... G....

    This song speaks alot to me. It seems like he's talking about me or to me. It hurts so bad that the bottle and the pills are the only the escape to not feel anything. Even though it's just for a while. Because it's the only thing that numbs the pain. I wish someone would worry about me and see my pain like Ivan B sees her pain. Sometimes I wish the pills would kill me💊🍺😢😔

  73. B.... B....

    I miss these rappers. Now rappers rap about sex and weed and it gets annoying. I mean yes some are good but I want the old rap to come back. This song makes me cry so much every time I listen to it. Especially the part where it says something about a girl crying on her sheets. And her not eating. Cuz I was doing that. And I still kind of do. We need more rappers and songs like this. :/

  74. b.... 1....

  86. M.... M....

    Favorite song 😍 people constantly ask me what type of music I listen to. What genre does Ivan b sing? I've been told it's indie rap

  87. M.... P....

    😗😗😗 I LOVE IVAN B

  88. E.... B....

    so good! any of these songs you post copyrighted?

  89. S.... G....

    one of my friends is suffering from extreme depression... I'm gonna show this to her and maybe it will help her understand how much I would miss her and every one of her other friends... really makes me upset but in a good way when I listen to this song... thank you

    S.... G....

    Sable Gaming. My. Best Friend is the same boat severely depressed and now she's drinking with her so called friends I understand drinking every once in a while but they do it everytime. They go out. I'm her best friend and I care about her deeply. She's always talking about how horrible she feels lithe morning after. From hangovers

    S.... G....

    Its because your gonna tell her in a way that music can but impact her harder. Let us know how the outcome turns out brother. The world needs people like you that care about more than themselves. Im working on that fault myself right now. God bless you being. I mean that

  90. I.... ....

    Respect ivan.

  91. G.... N....

    😭💖💖

  92. J.... H....

    can u do Ivan B one of a kind

  93. E.... B....

    this song copyrighted?

  94. K.... M....

    Damn this hits home.. it makes me go numb..

  95. T.... M....

    relate so much ,in love this song soo sooo sooo much <3 pure talent <3

  96. O.... P....

    Now this is actual rap. not the garbage that everyone listens to like yatchy and lil Uzi. I love old school hip hop, and it's nice to see an underground rapper rapping like this!

    O.... P....

    lil Uzi isn’t trash.... but whatever

    O.... P....

    @Amanda Grubbs he is trash tho tbh

    O.... P....

    Angel Tudela honestly I’m glad that you feel the same way. I listen to the other crap and honestly wanted to die more than the feelings that I get from the feelings of this music
    💜 but the differences between the sadness that I feel from these songs is from me feeling, relating to it, and feeling love in every single word.

    O.... P....

    @Remco Loos He is
