Life with an addict

Life with an addict will mentally fuck u over
Physically leaving you starving
It’ll have you wondering what you did to deserve this shit
You’ll steal and kill just to get something to eat
And don’t you dare expect somebody to help you
Cause half of the family’s on crack
The other half acting like they ont know jack
You’re by yourself in this world force to raise your self
You grow up much too quickly
Never knowing what it was like to act young
Cause will the other kids were out playing on the playground
You’re in the house giving mom her "medicine"
She tells you it makes her better, asks do you want mommy to get sick
So you help her as much as u can
But what the bitch forgot to mention is that there’s no money to help her habit
So instead she offers herself in exchange for drugs
But the dealer has something else on mind
He wants you, he wants to steal you innocence
Your mom doesn’t care as long as she gets her high
You scream and you scream at the top of your lungs for help
But does it ever come, no and this cycle happens again
But the finally your grown and able to move out on your on
You don’t what to do cause you have no cash
So you stay with that small hope that one day your mom will look at you and at least say
"I’m sorry"
