This crack pipe,
This smack pipe,
it takes, it lies.
Curiosity reels you in
hides the truth behind.
Every day, life's a trial
unpredictable and wild.
Once so happy, contented
now you rarely smile.
Survival, trump's all else.
you weave webs of deceit.
You beg borrow and steal,
to keep the sickness beat.
addiction is a disease
it does not discriminate.
A wise man, pauper or king,
soon brought to his knees.
