Feeling like you're caught in a never-ending cycle? Grandson's heartfelt lyrics explore the struggle of battling personal demons. The song dives deep into the turmoil of feeling trapped in bad habits and destructive behavior, despite efforts to break free. As he grapples with a lack of self-control and the heavy weight of regret, there's an acknowledgment of the pain caused to both himself and others. The "riptide" serves as a metaphor for this inescapable pull towards his vices and inner conflicts.

Riptide
Lyrics
I have done bad things did them to good people
Got no self-control it's the root of my evil
Wage war in my head when I'm tryna keep it peaceful
A little feels good, a little more and it's lethal
Save me from myself
I've been caught up in the riptide
For too long 'cause it's all I know
I've been lettin' this shit slide
These bad habits, they die too slow
I've been caught up in the riptide
For too long 'cause it's all I know
I've been lettin' this shit slide
But if you love me, let me go
I get high to leave all these problems on the ground
Then to my surprise, they're right there when I come back down
I do it like I've done before, a million times
A million and one and I lose my mind
Save me from myself
I've been caught up in the riptide
For too long 'cause it's all I know
I've been lettin' this shit slide
These bad habits, they die too slow
I've been caught up in the riptide
For too long 'cause it's all I know
I've been lettin' this shit slide
But if you love me, let me go
But if you love me, let me go
Got pulled by the current 'til I'm runnin' out of breath
Got dragged back down feel the water in my chest
I've tried getting better did all of the twelve steps
Whoever would'a thought? Whoever could'a guessed?
The harder that I chase it, the further that it gets
The harder that I chase it
I've been caught up in the riptide
For too long 'cause it's all I know
I've been lettin' this shit slide
These bad habits, they die too slow
I've been caught up in the riptide
For too long 'cause it's all I know
I've been lettin' this shit slide
But if you love me, let me go
Let me go
But if you love me, let me go
