[Verse 1]
I rise with the grind
And a face full of rain
Cold eyes in the mirror
Same old ache in my frame
But the pot starts talking
When the room gets small
One black sip, one slow breath
And I don’t mind at all
[Pre-Chorus]
Stir it up, baby
Let it go dark
Pour me a little mercy
Right into my heart
[Chorus]
Coffee’s my therapy
Coffee’s my therapy
It brings me back to me
Coffee’s my therapy
One cup, I’m free
(yeah, I’m free)
[Verse 2]
At the corner café
By the old brass door
I leave my bad luck
On the checked-up floor
Steam on the window
Like a soft disguise
I can hear my own name
In the hiss and the rise
[Pre-Chorus]
Stir it up, baby
Let it go dark
Pour me a little mercy
Right into my heart
[Chorus]
Coffee’s my therapy
Coffee’s my therapy
It brings me back to me
Coffee’s my therapy
One cup, I’m free
(yeah, I’m free)
[Bridge]
If the world comes calling
I let it wait
Got a little black ritual
On a chipped white plate
When the night turns heavy
And the bills come due
I take my medicine
And I think of you
[Chorus]
Coffee’s my therapy
Coffee’s my therapy
It brings me back to me
Coffee’s my therapy
One cup, I’m free
(yeah, I’m free)
[Outro]
Keep it hot
Keep it strong
One more pour
And I’m moving on
Coffee’s my therapy
(therapy)
