Verse 1
Party started back in '99 still in my prime
Leaving school to go home so we can puff a couple dimes
Back to class high, seems that's all I ever wanted
My idea of having fun was cruisin' round and gettin blunted
L after L, drink after drink,
Add the crack add the diesel add the tabs of ecstasy
Each night high off something, weekends all or nothing
Thrill of gettin' caught gave me tingles in my stomach
I'm the one in control I don't care about statistics
Withhold if I wanted to but copped a new prescription
Time goes by needed something more potent,
To me I'm lookin' fly so luckily no on will notice
Lies kick in, start schemin' for the money
Hit my parents easily, they give in because they love me
I could care less, I mean I couldn't care less
Ruin anything that's perfect I'm a beautiful mess
HOOK
I'm so used to my life with you around
I believe that I need to be free
VERSE 2
Pins & needles, fuzzy feeling, love the hearing of bells
Throwing up or passing out means that my night has ended well
When the needle hits the vein, I no longer feel the pain
Each time I hit the pipe I escape to paradise,
Fuck it, I don't care if I die
If it's my time to go I'm gonna fade away high...
No matter what the situation when I think of that rush
Hands shake with anticipation, yearning for its touch
No thing as too much, I could never have enough
Feed my need til I'm pleased and I feel like I'm stuffed
Wake up, dope sick, body startin' to itch
Know once I get my fix it'll take away the twitch
Paranoid to an extreme, shootin up in closets
Peekin' out the window cuz I'm sure there's always some one watchin...
Is this the end of the road?
Narcane on deck headed towards the path of overdose
HOOK
VERSE 3
Rehab take one I ain't done havin' fun,
Get out, halfway house, good a month then I bounce
Take two, take three, like my body's on repeat
Fourth time's a charm, detox myself from misery
It's like no one could help, had to want it for myself
If you've never been there you wouldn't know what I felt
Closet full of skeletons, but I closed that door
I ain't goin' back to hell again, fuck a thing called settling
Achieving the dreams that I always deemed impossible
My life was horrible, happiness improbable
Now I'm invincable, tackle through the obstacles
Real friends around me now the girl's unstoppable
Never thought I'd see the day I'd care about me
Fought the battles, won the wars, now I'm finally free
Got a hip hop family supports my highs and lows
My addiction nowadays, fly kicks and rap shows
