Tryin' Like Hell To Get To Heaven
Struggling Towards Redemption: A Journey in Lyrics
Lyrics
I can feel the toll the whiskey's taken
I am aware of the impact of excessive whiskey consumption on my well-being.
I'm a drunken angel in the makin'
I am in the process of becoming a troubled or flawed angel due to my drunken state.
I'd put the bottle down, but I ain't ready
I acknowledge the need to stop drinking, but I am not prepared to do so yet.
But I'm trying like hell to get to heaven
I am making a concerted effort to reach a state of happiness or peace, akin to heaven.
Yeah I'm sure I should lay down the smoke
Although I should quit smoking, I find it challenging to go a day without it.
But I can't go one day without a toke
I struggle with the habit of smoking marijuana regularly.
Lookin' more than my age and breathin' heavy
I appear older than my actual age, and my breathing is affected by my lifestyle choices.
I'm just trying like hell to get to heaven
I am actively attempting to improve my situation and reach a positive outcome.
Does God make room for somebody like me
I question if there is room in God's plan for someone like me, who is lost despite knowing the way.
Who knows the way, but is way too blind to see
I acknowledge my blindness to the path despite being aware of it.
Where there's no more sorrow or pain
I desire a place free from sorrow and pain, possibly a metaphor for heaven.
Or do men like me just get broken wings
I wonder if individuals like me end up broken or damaged in their pursuit of happiness.
Is it the sound of the rattle or the shake
I contemplate whether certain sounds influence my decision on the quantity of pills to take.
That helps me decide how many pills to take
I make choices about medication, possibly related to coping with difficulties in life.
I jus' throw back a handful to keep me guessin'
I take a random assortment of pills to keep the outcome uncertain, suggesting internal struggles.
I think I'm tryin' like hell to get to heaven
I believe I am making a determined effort to achieve a positive outcome, possibly reaching heaven.
I'm addicted to all the highs and the lows
I am addicted to both the highs and lows of life but express contentment with the choices I've made.
But I'm still happy bout the life I chose
Despite my struggles, I find satisfaction in the life I have chosen.
What faith I have left keeps me believin'
The remaining faith within me sustains my belief in a better future.
So I'll keep trying like hell to get to heaven
I commit to persisting in my efforts to attain a state of happiness or fulfillment, symbolized by heaven.
