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
