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

VERSE 1 Came acrossed a bridge marked the point of no return Message scribbled in a riddle but to me it was so simple Walk acrss the path to watch your memories burn Start to take a step really what would I be losin, My heart, all it's bruises, the people who abused it Who care's if I'm gone not like anybody needs me Give, give, give, when is someone gonna breathe me? No answer, toxic but there's no cancer Rooms filled so why does no one have their hands up? Battling depression cuz I've always lacked attention Even in my younger days I felt like I was alone Endless thoughts seemed to leave my mind blown Had a sorrow in my soul but on the cover didn't show The book of Tre wouldn't be a best seller No Hollywood picture, another lost sister No one remembers you for being unknown HOOK Be my friend Wrap me up Breath me in Be my friend VERSE 2 stand in a crowded room yet some reason I'm all by myself The chit chatter overpowers out my cries for help Need a safe haven to escape to when I'm anxious Wonder if they'll ever know that I don't feel like I'm loved, Don't wanna hear it, instead I'd rather feel it Afraid of being open so my feelings I conceal it I'll be damned if one more person takes advantage of the girl A big heart don't stand a chance against this bigger world Learned to keep my distance from the ones I care about the most Cuz in the end I always seem to be the laughing joke Only want the girl around to cause you entertainment Thought we was cool, guess you had other arrangements I deserve an explanation, don't get what happened to determine this estrangement I kept it moving I suggest you do the same, No need to speak names, good times but things change HOOK VERSE 3 Sometimes I swallow my pride, other times I'm ignorant Resort to bickering, more screaming and less listening Walked the higher road come to find it was a dead end All alone, no one waiting by the phone I know I have my faults don't need no on to point it out That's what life's about, learn the most when I'm in doubt Been down so many routes and too many wrong turns Made so many friends and too many bridges burned I ain't complaining, I love the path that I have taken So amazin' how I landed in the basement They say the best things in life are free I say the best thing's to be an emcee, listen up when I speak Still young I envision that my future's bright I'm tryna be the light that guides you on the darkest night There comes a point in life you realize no one's perfect And nothing ever is what it appears upon the surface

HOOK X2 Baby, you know I love you but I gotta let you go This relationship is draining and it's eating at my soul My heart is tired of being left out in the cold I can't take this frostbite no more VERSE 1 You had my heart from the start back when you were just a crush Saw you coolin on the corner felt my face begin to blush Never been the type to rush or get caught up in that mind frame I brought my dime game, bagged him with my rhyme game The kisses and the hugs, Endless nights of love We would ride or die together through the sweat and through the blood Open up I was the picture to your locket You were the hero, I ain't mind playing the sidekick You were like my heimlich, gave me air to breath (and I) Gave you the heart that I wore under my sleave I kept it covered up, heart was out of sight Didn't think I'd meet somebody who was more than just alright The perfect piece that I needed to my puzzle, And you dug me so deep felt like I was in a tunnel Look into your eyes, no surprise I saw myself Take true love over fame, any fortune or wealth HOOK X2 VERSE 2 How could something so good end, tell me when it changed Not one to blame but why'd you call me out my name? You switched it up, think it's cool to disrespect me I'm not one to bite my tongue so in return I'm thinking jet skis Argue every day, every fight's the same, Different topic, same plot, we refuse to budge spots You're thinkin that I'm creepin', I'm thinkin that you're cheatin' Cuz the bed we both reside in has been only used for sleepin Cravin' your attention, how much clearer can I make it? I feel it's basic to share with me your anguish That's where we differ, you don't think the same as I do Take a good look in the mirror I no longer stand beside you Hard for me to think cuz my mind and heart argue Heart says to stay, mind says hit the throttle I still love you matter fact I always will I don't mean to hurt your heart but here's the way that I feel
