DESPERATE
My favorite season it’s white as snow
Take the Benjamin that’s what I owe
A bag of shit that’s what I get
Duped and fooled I won’t forget
My eyes won’t close I need to sleep
The word on the street I’m in too deep
Lend me a dime I’m out of time
I’ll do anything for one flat line
I don’t trust you what’s yours is mine
My nose is bleeding I’ll pay the fine
Bloody snot is what I got
I’m begging you don’t let me rot
Without the powder I have no hope
Just one last time I cannot cope
A shadow of myself it’s who I am
Can’t stop the hemorrhaging from a chute in the dam
No rhyme or reason it’s become my fate
Up my nose last move check mate
