Verse 1 Started with a spark, just a weekend thrill, Thought I had control, thought I had the will. One taste turned to two, then the nights got long, Didn’t know the beat I was on was all wrong. The laughter was loud, but the silence was louder, Every high built a cage, every puff made it prouder. Verse 2 Friends faded out, but the craving stayed, Every promise I made got bent, then frayed. Mirror showed a stranger, eyes cold and hollow, Chasing every high, with a low to follow. The phone stopped ringing, my world grew small, But the hunger inside still answered the call. Verse 3 Bills stacked high, but my pockets stayed thin, Every dollar I had fed the fire within. Family knocking, but I locked that door, Couldn’t face the truth, couldn’t take no more. The fridge stayed empty, but the stash stayed full, Trading my tomorrows for a moment’s pull. Verse 4 Days turned nights, and the nights turned years, Every laugh I faked hid a flood of tears. Told myself “tomorrow,” but tomorrow lied, Every sunrise felt like the day I died. The seasons changed, but I stayed the same, Lost in the loop of a losing game. Verse 5 The streets knew my name, but not my soul, I was half a man, not close to whole. Every hit I took was a piece of me gone, But the hunger kept beating like a war drum song. I wore my shame like a second skin, Too deep in the dark to let light in. Verse 6 Tried to quit once, thought I’d found my way, But the shadows crept back when the sky turned gray. One slip, two slips, then I fell full force, Like a runaway train on a broken course. The taste of freedom was gone too fast, And the chains I broke came back like the past. Verse 7 Rock bottom ain’t a place, it’s a state of mind, Where the light’s so dim you can’t see the signs. But a voice in the dark whispered, “You’re still here,” And it cut through the noise, through the hate, through the fear. It wasn’t loud, but it felt like truth, A spark in the ashes of my wasted youth. Verse 8 Checked into a room with a bed and a prayer, Met people with scars who’d been trapped there. We spoke in truths, no masks, no lies, And I saw my reflection in their tired eyes. We built a bridge out of broken parts, And I learned that healing starts in the heart. Verse 9 Step by step, I learned to breathe, To fight the urge, to plant new seeds. The chains got lighter, the nights less cold, And I started to dream of a life I could hold. The hunger still knocks, but I don’t let it in, I’ve learned that the battle is fought from within. Verse 10 Now I walk with the weight of the lessons I’ve earned, From the bridges I burned to the corners I turned. Addiction’s a shadow, but I’ve found my sun, And the war ain’t over — but I’ve won this one. Every step forward is a vow I renew, To the me I lost, and the me I grew.
