White
At first all you feel is high,
The laughter never seems to die
Your confident, talkative, outgoing,
Life and soul, all knowing
The more you have the cheaper it gets,
Still you start to see the mounting debts,
Credit cards now used for cash,
Your two lives now completely clash
Your working for coke,
You’ve started to become a joke
You’re actually a liability,
Your life’s lost all stability
Awake all night, all alone,
Texting embarrassing messages to old friends on your phone
You loose all your morals,
Your next bag is all that remains of your goals
You steal and cheat from the ones who love you,
Thinking they don’t have a clue
They bend of backwards to help, not knowing what’s best,
You manipulate them and give them no rest
Only just realising your family have suffered,
Emotionally, physically & drained, scared that’ll you’ll end up dead
You will put them through far worse,
You feel sorry for yourself but they’ve got the curse
The ones who are left you still torture,
Feeling sorry for yourself when they show you the door
You’ve had some and you’ll never do it again,
The next day you’ve been tricked by your brain
You say just once more
But it’s never one, your hooked down to your core
Your losing everything you’ve ever cared for,
But Everything will be ok once you get more
Your gambling with the world for a prize of everything you own,
Everyone who loves you, everything you’ve known
When you’ve got no money you do some drops,
It’s just a matter of time before you’re pulled by the cops
It only ends one or two ways,
I’ve lost so much, now I’m living on borrowed days
I’m writing all this knowing it’s how it all goes,
I don’t want to but I’ll probably still put it up my nose
