Gifted
Addiction left me gifted
But that Evil life is twisted
The shadows like to follow me
But the shapes
They must've shifted
I was told that life would pass me by
But still I haven't missed it
Who said I'll never quit the drugs
My ass, you come and kiss it
As long as I can move and breath
I'm fighting double fisted
They taught me how to make the bread
Instead I'm baking biscuits
Emotions come
And their rushing in
So now
I'm feeling lifted
All my life I chose to take
It's time for me to give it
Instead of talk
I'll walk the walk
It's time for me to live it
My feet they hurt
From walking miles
I'm talking miles of blocks
And my teeth are bared
but I'm not scared
I found my coo coo clock
Crazies just a word for me
I went and lost my mind
I lose some here
And lose some there
I'm losing all my time
Now it won't come back
A heart attack
Why can't I get some sleep?
laying down with all this sound
I lost my counting sheep
Time goes fast
And moments go slow
I can't forget the past
Everytime I run from me
It nocks me on my ass
I'd rather play a shooting game
And have myself a blast
when I close my eyes
please don't cry
Because I'll be free at last
