My life is so screwed up
bet you wonder why
addiction beats me down
I'm useless to even try
I forever chase the dragon
until he chases me
I light the crack pipe
and hope no one sees
I have prayed to God
I jumped up to the sky
I thought I could change
but I'm useless to even try
Time and again I lose it
beating my head against the wall
I can't fight the addiction
I've forgotten how to stand tall
Useless to even try
can't fight my way out
had hoped for something different
but returned to my doubts
I've just about given up
and everyday I fail
what's the point of living
when I'm going back to jail
