Lemme tell you a little story 'bout a kid I once knew He was a happy, smart boy who studied hard in school Most of the kids knew him, and we thought he was cool Always saying, "Hi", and waving in his Converse shoes He took six APs, 'cause he loved to lead There wasn't a single textbook that he couldn't read Stayed up all night studying, sacrificing his sleep He never got a single letter grade below a B On the weekends, when we were out partying He would be on his living room piano practicin' Actually, he went to one party reluctantly Didn't seem to fit in, so he left immediately Comes back home to have his parents question him Asking him where he's been, or if he's done any sins He told them he was outside partying with his friends Then his parents snapped, and told him, "Studying is your only friend" Monday comes around, and he does his routine Looks outside, and the sky is looking really cloudy He grabs his backpack and glances at his metal CDs Does his homework while running, 'cause straight As are his needs He starts to realize he doesn't have many friends 'Cause he spends most of his time writing notes with a pen Goes to the bathroom to find some kids with these meds Said it was Adderall, helps him focus his head One hit he got hooked, he started feeling really shook F*ck the books, he wanted to keep popping pillies, getting cooked Helped relieve the stress and forget his parents He's obsessed, loved to care about his grades even less He was no longer the kid who always smiled through the halls Now he's the kid dealing heavy drugs within stalls Teachers start to write him up for missing roll calls While he's standing outside, smokin' joints against the wall Corruption takes the reigns while he's sitting in the rain Police caught his supplier, now he might be goin' insane He's missed school for two weeks, now he's feeling all the shame Digs his razor deep as he feels the high of the pain The high was short lived though, he wanted something more Wanted something stronger, something that could be his cure In his room he knew there was a little something left for sure Locked the door, 'cause he didn't want his parents to hear his roars His hands begin to shake, as his mind begins to quake He's awake, hasn't gotten sleep for three straight days, yeah "Addie, addie, addie", that's all his mind can say Then the Devil appeared and said, "I know you are afraid Take my hand, I can help relieve your suffering No one really loves you, and the end is just slowly approaching I've been watching you, the light in your heart is quickly closing I'll consume your soul, and I can end this dark mourning" The boy agreed, and the Devil finally took over He looked to his left and saw an orange pill container Three pills left, he swallowed them without any water The sudden high rushed to his head, and he finally felt better Two hours later, when the sky began to darken Felt the need for more as his poor soul felt broken Hopeless, was what he felt as his life started slowin' He knew at this point he wasn't going to heaven His parents banged on the door to please let them in But little did they know what their boy has been doin' They finally burst through to see their son on the floor Dark bags drag his eyes, lookin' pale and so cold The parents quickly dialed a 9-1-1 And the ambulance came to grab their sickened son Took a diagnostic and figured out it was drugs He could've overdosed, and then his life would've been done After he recovered, he still made a pact The Devil got him with another clear Adderall sac His parents yelled at him and screamed at him for being so bad Little did they know, they made him feel even more sad "The time has finally come", the Devil whispered in his ear He closed his eyes and saw his life flash throughout the years, yeah Birthdays, hangouts, kisses, memories, and cheers "Do it", said the Devil and screams from hell he could hear He grabbed his wooden chair from under his desk He knew what he was doing was a really daunting risk His eyes are fixed, inside he's feeling really sick His razor flicks his skin as his blood pours in the thick Grabbed the rope he used for his treehouse outside Super focused on this task, but the rope he finally tied He looked into the rope and then he slowly cried The Devil smiled back at him and said, "At last it is time" Young eighteen year old boy then stepped on the chair Tied the rope to his ceiling fan, thinking life isn't fair His friends are living a life that he can't compare So what's his life worth if his parents aren't even there? Wrapped the rope around his neck and slowly it tightened He took his last breath of oxygen, feeling so frightened He took one step in his Converse shoes, feeling so beaten And then his body slumped over, sadly now he's forgotten
