I wanted the dope and I sought
it
I scrambled and hustled like a slave Was it famine or family I fought
it
I hurled my youth into a grave
I want the dope and I got
it
Came back with plenty for all
Yet somehow life's not what I thought
it
Somehow the dope is everything but nothing at all
You come to get high and for no damn good reason
You feel like an exile at first
You hate it like hell for a season
Then you are worse than the worst
It grips you like no other sinning
It twists to a foe from a friend
It
seems it's been since the
beginning
It
seems it will be to the end
I've seen dope dealers power tripping wannabe big shot callers They was plumb full of sh*t to the brim I've watched people hate love just to Waller
Until their spirit in their eyes glow dim
Always dark but the pale moon gleaming
Few stars flicker through the pot smoke I spot
I thought that I surely was
dreaming
But reality in fact no I am not
This ice with its brightness will blind you
With a grip that only few shall overcome
There's a cold fear that follows and finds you
Leaving you silent empty and numb There are hardships here that nobody would ever recon
These demons don't stop till they kill There's a better way and oh how it beckons
A better way for those with the will It's making the world diminish
I'm so sick of the taste of meth
Win or lose I'll be glad when its over So I can simply rest up before death I'll fight and you can bet its my best fight
It's hell but I've been here before
It's far better than this by a damn sight
To say never again just once more This dope keeps haunting trying to lure me
I'd rather be hung from the end of a rope
Yet it isn't just the sh*t that I'm wanting
So much as it is just finding the dope It's the great big broad lands way out yonder
Where tweakers will never know peace
If this wickedness thrills you with wonder
The devil himself will be your dealer Here he owns the lease
