lyrics

One day, back in ’09,
I was chillin’ with a friend of mine,
He was like I’m back from the Chickenfest,
Got a pack of poppy’s wanna try it with the cess?

I was like… sure,
Gotta explore, yanno I’m Hunter S.,
So he balled up the opium, stuck it in a bowl,
In that moment, I’m 16 doin’ heroin,

What the fuck son?
Took a puff and bricks pulled down my optics,
I ain’t tripping, but I felt then that I lost it,
Toxic thoughts always screwing me, this dismissed that,

Like cleared me of my paranoias,
But at what cost? Numb like I ain’t human,
Dumb when ya pop the pills or puff this junk,
No matter how smart though, I still tried once,

What’s that mean?
Whats the human condition?
What’s this talk about disease and addictions?
Who really needs help and who’s just begging for attention?
Life’s like a dream,
But it quickly can turn into a nightmarish scene,
Barely believed in myself in my youth,
So this goes out to all those strugglin, find your truth,

Back to the day at hand, passin’ ‘round H packs,
Smoked like an eighth a day back then,
Figured since I was little that I’m the savior of men,
Known to show the duality of life, it ain’t all pizza and pie,

Sometimes you cry and wished that you could die,
But you gotta defy, deny any idea that your life’s a lie,
Everything is a lesson, the teacher is inside of you,
Take time as a blessing and realize love is all that’s true,

So don’t spiral and dive, dip into depression,
Rather fly and glide, find your way out this mission,
You got more levels to conquer, you can’t be quittin’,
You got a mind of your own to unlock, let it be written,

Let it be done, let it be like Jude’s your son,
It was written that the second isn’t as good as one,
So ya gotta go harder than any other chump,
And make every idea stand on its own like a lone gun,

What’s that mean?
Whats the human condition?
What’s this talk about disease and addictions?
Who really needs help and who’s just begging for attention?
Life’s like a dream,
But it quickly can turn into a nightmarish scene,
Barely believed in myself in my youth,
So this goes out to all those strugglin, find your truth,
