Taproot - I Lyrics






I am seeing tunnel vision in a world thats dark and cold,
I cannot believe how much I've changed since the days of old,
I know it's temporary but I need to focus straight,
I cannot believe I lost control of my fate,
I need forgiveness from the people I truely care about,
I need support behind my back to help me spit it out I am gonna win,
I can't afford to blow this one,
I hate myself sometimes,
I love myself,
I need this way of life because it holds me.
contradictions the way of life happiness is wealthyness is healthy
now I've made it through those lies and deceit,
I think whats done is done and I can't complain anymore i am sure,
now that I've found myself again it feels great I can't believe
I'd lost control of my fate.

  35. R.... a....

    Right ma n

  36. R.... N....

    Holllly shit I just rediscovered this after like 5+ years...used to get me in "the feels" before the feels was a thing

    R.... N....

    Damn dood, me too. I got this song from some files off a kid at a LAN party. It quickly became the anthem of my existence

    R.... N....

    Lmao ... Kinda hit me like that too !!! And I'm a black dude from the hood but I like music no matter if it's 2pac or Nirvana !!

    But I used to be in the hood getting high listening to the rock radio stations back in like 99'-2002 or so and this song came on a lot and I found out who sung it and been a fan ever since !!!

    Definitely 1 of my favorite songs all time .. Rap and r&b included

    R.... N....

    What kind of filthy fuck says "the feels"...... fucking hate what passes for culture today.

    R.... N....

    Papa Emeritus ii probably the same kind of filthy fuck that feels the need to project their sorry ass opinion about ""x"" publicly. hey you should probably get some cream for your chapped ass.

    R.... N....

    Damien B im always the few asian... I can claim the hood & suburbs. I can claim lots of sh. But the suburbs is where I grew up in, the huge fraction of my youth. so that's probably me, the product... the impression I give to ppl, & how I act. Only, ppl still don't know... I barely forget sh...anyway, I wonder if a lot of 90s kids like to switch up on ppl. Just for kicks. Or that's just me. Yes, I entertain myself listening to rock, ...when it seems like the unpopular...Contradictions a way of life, this is wealth... & this is healthy? Something like that.

    When them older folks was like name that tune. Me: Idk! (They so think im down...😅) 🤔 "it sounds familiar tho..." But this thread sounds like masterbation, kind of.

  37. A.... C....

    My most favorite song by this band

    A.... C....

    Alan Cripps Mine, too!!!

    A.... C....

    Tough call, this is def like one of my top 3 by them..I'm a huge Taproot fan so it'd prob go: Mine, Lost in the Woods and I.

    A.... C....

    really?

    A.... C....

    You haven't listened then!!

    Feel the lyrics!
    To most of their music!

  38. D.... S....

    Used to love this song when I was 18.

    D.... S....

    great song

  39. G.... E....

    I can't even count the amount of times I quoted this song in my A.I.M away messages or info haha  This song was literally on repeat for most of my time in 8th-9th grade.  I was one of the lucky ones to have the 30 sec's of anti skip haha

    G.... E....

    I was in 9th grade when this came out. I called the radio to request it countless times.

    G.... E....

    Damn I was a year old when this came out

    G.... E....

    Dang I was 16

    G.... E....

    I was about 18 years old I believe when this came out ...one of my favorite songs

  40. U.... D....

    This is a good gym motivation song, have been listening to it since it came out, still a top song.

    U.... D....

    Me too, It gets me more pumped up then any song Wahlberg can come up with.  -_-

    U.... D....

    @Peter Wolanski Can't beat good vibrations when your going to lift heavy lol

    U.... D....

    yeah pretty good band live as well i seen that at ozzfest 02

    U.... D....

    That's what's up!!!!

    U.... D....

    @Tate Abel I saw em at ozzfest 01.. they played this one too.. sounded great!!

  41. J.... S....

    It's their right to do or to not do the song. You own the album not the band. They can do what the fuck they want. If you threw a bottle at me because I don't do the song that you want me to do when you have no fucking clue why I don't want to do it: Then I would come into the crowd and your night would become a lot worse in a second. Second of all: If you really react that way because old songs are not played then you are not a fan, none whatsoever, because you have no respect for the artist, you just like the music, that's okay but don't confuse the 2 cause you think that everything will forever be the same. That obviously doesn't mean you need to support them whenever/whatever BUT it does mean that you don't project your own form of truth upon another... and enrage when it doesn't seem to fit. Grow the fuck up. It's their music, and their lives, you have absolutely no say in their creative proces because you have a poster on the wall. Your emotional connection only means something in your head. It has no value in their life except maybe a moment of artistic self-respect and rent.

    J.... S....

    @Julius Spin oh shit they dont play their old songs anymore? fuck that
    Imagine seeing KoRn play and they did their new shit only? zzzz

    J.... S....

    +Julius Spin While I agree with booing and throwing things at them is a bit drastic, but to have him say that to the crowd was uncalled for as well, plus he was swearing at them. What kind of an artist does that to their fans? I could see if the fans are badgering them for autographs at the wrong time, being annoying in public when they are trying to take a leak, but at a show? They love their music for a reason, why not play a little bit of everything? I agree that artists grow up and grow out of situations, but both sides were silly.

    J.... S....

    @Desolate Soul

    Do you mean that an individual swearing and cursing when stuff is thrown at him is out of line?

    J.... S....

    only when it's Axl Rose

  42. F.... S....

    Tha cure, peace off clown brock in hook. me a living vacaciton bull come up. still back out full, is beliving.

  43. M.... ....

    Really?....that's lame of them to act that way. I wonder what the hell he has against this song. He and other band members may not be so angst and full of anxiety anymore, but that doesn't mean that fans in the Taproot fanbase aren't going through shit and still using their songs to get through it. Pretty selfish of Taproot if you ask me, but I still respect the music.

  44. E.... B....

    Saw them at the Machine Shop in flint, everybody kept chanting "I" finally he yells "i'm not playing that f@cking song and everybody booed and threw beer bottles on the stage. They left the show early. Hate this band now but this song is still awesome as shit

    E.... B....

    Late answer but had to say this, I searched for live version and he definitely can't pull of the fast part irl.

    E.... B....

    Think i was there for that concert lol

    E.... B....

    Eric Bergey. i was there lol

    E.... B....

    Writing the song is living it. I write songs, I write out of pain. If my pain is anything the song I, then I wouldn't want to sing it either, look at itg from both sides

    E.... B....

    That's crazy. They played it when I seen them back in 2013, badass show

  45. M.... ....

    No problem, thanks for watching/listening :)

  46. A.... A....

    I love this song a lot make me thing about the good times thanks for uploading it

  47. D.... M....

    rock out

  48. M.... ....
