The Life Of An Addict!
I was ten when it started, going around with the teens
Had my first joint, and then came the beans
It was mostly school drop outs, but I thought they were great
I was growing up fast, learning stuff from my mates
By the time I was twelve, we were all into speed
But the buzz was fading, the same as the weed
So we went to the next level, and got in some coke
We would never use needles, "Naw we would only toke"
But only two days later, my sleeve was up, arm bare
I could hear myself saying, "yeah put it in there"
Now I am a sixteen year old hooker, most of my mates now dead
I barely eat or drink, as long as my habit is fed
I am dying also, although the disease isn't shown yet
And if a trick catches it, I won't have remorse or regret
As I only use them, to get me what I need
Like a vampire's victims, only taken for the feed!
