 Struggling with Taboo? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

Story starts off with an injury
From there the rest is history
A tale to be told with no victory
Shrouded in silence cloaked in misery
Two to three twice a day
It will make the pain go away
And don't worry you can trust me
Just look at the wall you can see my degree
And yes its easy to get off
Wouldn't give it to you if you couldn't stop
So here's your prescription
Keep it in the kitchen
Take as prescribed ill see you in a month
So this began my new ritual
I took his advice everyday continual
And in the end the eventual
Demise of my individual

Mental illness in this country
Is taboo now cant you see
They don't want you to know the truth
You live in a fantasy
They break you down to make you weak
Provide you with things for you to seek
Casted upon you their tricks
Look down upon and shun the addict

Days into weeks and weeks into months and
Months into years and all these tears can
Not sum up all of this fear i don't know how to get out of here
These pills are so expensive this shit is a life sentence
So i took to the streets to get my fix
But i could never dream of what was next
All it took was just one hit
My intuition inside was silenced
They say in life you reap what you sew and
My life now is what i owe
Going down the hiway I'm going about ninety
Look up in the mirror the cops are behind me
Pull off on the exit crept into an alley
Turn off my lights no one will find me
And now the fuzz are zeroing in
But i don't care cause I'm high on heroin
And as they go by i make my escape
Peel out of this place cause I've got a date
I'm going to see the black tar goddess meet up with the dope man
I'm so modest turmoil tinfoil watch solid turn to boil
Only to the opiate am i loyal
Now i graduated needles and spoons
Alone by myself time goes by in this room
I casted a spell and now I'm in hell
Will i live to see tomorrow only time will tell

Mental illness in this country
Is taboo now cant you see
They don't want you to know the truth
You live in a fantasy
They break you down to make you weak
Provide you with things for you to seek
Casted upon you their tricks
Look down upon and shun the addict

Lost your friends and your veins collapse
Try to get clean but just relapse
You have no money so you cook up crack
All for the dope tar china and smack
And this is the world we live in
All around you even the hood you reside in
Even your own friends but you don't know
Enslaved in trap houses getting low
Live kill and die for the balloon
Possession of their addiction to consume
The system is not about recovery
All just profit and money
Dealers worship the almighty dollar
Junkies scream in pain as they holler
Suboxone methadone harm reduction
Contributes more to the drug wars destruction
Problem is this will never stop
One dealer goes down another opens shop
Or you got to deal with crooked cops
Only way to stop it is to stop it at the top
But the people in power have made a promise
To keep their silence to fill their pockets
All you are to them is another deposit
As they sit back and count their profits
It will keep on going on its a cycle
Another overdose another revival
Another drug shipment another arrival
How can it end how can it say idle
In the world of drugs its all survival
Police and gang life its all tribal
More will die to stop it is vital
America totally in denial
Like a virus there is no vaccine
The only way to stop this is to stay clean
Talk about a pandemic this is systemic
For years we have been lost in this epidemic
Every single day more people die
Drug overdose murder or suicide
By doing nothing continue to comply
You hear the people outcry but most just stand by
The sad truth is there is no cure
You must find within yourself how to endear
But most people wont they'll disappear
Or they're tied to strings by the puppeteer
Guide yourself to truth to fight the evil
Otherwise the next shot could be lethal
Within darkness be guided by the light
Fight the fear within and
Listen to your insight

Mental illness in this country
Is taboo now cant you see
They don't want you to know the truth
You live in a fantasy
They break you down to make you weak
Provide you with things for you to seek
Casted upon you their tricks
Look down upon and shun the addict
