Life As An Addict

Addiction is bad and is a good thrill
but let me tell ya a story about going down hill
One day it started and it was weed
a hell of a buzz it was in deed
Then it got boring and wasn't a thrill
so hear comes a buddy here man try this pill
the pill was great and felt real good
so when I had money didn't spend as should
life was going great and the pills I liked
but one thing I didn't know was my addiction was top flight
Things went on for a year or two
then it started to change and the pills were poo
I heard there was a drug that was better
so I used the drug I said I would never
Heroin it was and it felt really good
so I liked it like every junkie would
I loved its feeling and every thing it was about
every time I used it I wanted to shout
Then one day I was driving along
saw blue lights and thought nothing was wrong
they pulled me aside and said hop out
and dam they were happy of what they found
I was screwed and didn't care
cause my buddy heroin was every where.
Shit went on for a couple of months
Here come my mother and she said what she wants
the next day I went to the detox
after I got out it was worst than being in a box
I lived in hell for a month or two
then here come Christmas and I asked myself who are you.
I hurt my family and myself
by doing drugs that were very bad for my health.
I moved away to get a good life
and so far I have put up a good fight
Next time you want to do some drugs
just remember your addiction is a bad bug
it's hard to fight but you can do it
by keeping your head up and say I knew it.
My story is done and I am fine
Just stay drug free and away from crime.
