Poet Introduction
Writing is how I clear my head when I feel like I'm backsliding and going to use
Just another mistake

Clean or dead
Just one more day as a fuck up,
Might as well pour something strong in a cup.
Most days I can't look myself in the eye,
If it wasn't for her I would say goodbye.
Never been anything but an outlaw,
But this life has left me raw.
All I've ever known is guns and drugs,
All my friends are goons and thugs.
I feel like I'm destined to fail,
For so long I've been on this trail.
Every time I end up in jail,
It always starts with a digital scale.
I never see the harm,
Of sliding a needle in my arm.
Can't honestly say it's been...

Most days I can't look myself in the eye,
If it wasn't for her I would say goodbye.
Never been anything but an outlaw,
But this life has left me raw.

All my friends are goons and thugs.

Well never stand alone
We been through the trenches together,
Stood side by side through all weather
We fight these battles every day
Just trying to keep our demons at bay
She's my everything
Always standing in my corner of the ring
She's kept me alive
Watched me take many a dive
The words walk away don't apply to her
Because it simply can't be done sir
She is my heart and without her I'm a monster
Stay awhile and even hear my family concur
No matter what I wait for her
I always run back to her
It's the hardest shit we've ever done
But...
Stood side by side through all weather
We fight these battles every day
Just trying to keep our demons at bay
She's my everything
Always standing in my corner of the ring
She's kept me alive
Watched me take many a dive
The words walk away don't apply to her
Because it simply can't be done sir
She is my heart and without her I'm a monster
Stay awhile and even hear my family concur
No matter what I wait for her
I always run back to her
It's the hardest shit we've ever done
But...
