Once An Addict Lyrics

Once An Addict by D Tox

• Growing up was hard in this dark age
• Looking up to grown men crushing up class A's
• As a kid i would steal off my class mates
• Lash out and scream as I struggled with my hearts pains
• Empty baggies in the bottom of the school bag
• Sat at the back of class hooting cans as I flashed back
• FUCK IT was the attitude I used to have
• I used to hate my mum because I blamed her cos i missed my dad
• With my behaviour kid my schooling never last long
• Only cracked a smile while smoking up a large bong
• Fully addicted I would lie and I would steal for it
• 15 i was trapped between the papers like a paper clip
• Years passed swear I stayed the same cunt
• choking in a dark room I blazed away my A+
• I was intelligent but all I made was bad choices
• Now 17 n haunted by these mad voices
• Telling me that I was better off a dead man
• with the devil on my shoulder saying your fucked up in the head Dan
• Turning me against the people that I held close
• Choking on the fumes I was enveloped in this fell smoke
• I didn't see it but son enough the session ended
• me & the weed done broke off a weathered friendship
• Like on a health trip I tried to get myself straight
• Ended up falling off the wagon down through hells gates

• Once an addict ........................................ Always an addict
• Once an addict ........................................ Always an addict
• Once an addict ........................................ Always an addict
• Once an addict, always an addict, some man crumble cos they just cant hack it

• 18 now I wouldn't blaze bare weed
• but sniffing up lines like a hoover... Henry the 8th of ket
• man I thought I was the price of powder
• id shout because the voices in my head were loader
• Poisoning myself while I was mentally ill
• if only I had a penny for ever braincell killed
• id be a... Billionaire by now, who knows maybe more
• young and lost amongst drugs at Park Street, 94
• Of course I would divorce the law
• Cook up drugs n then sell them out the door as if it wasn't against the law
• I mean it was, easy money a lifestyle for nomads
• Jumped up junkies smoking crack through those coke cans
• Anyway back to business, all there is say
• Wreckage after comedown with the weed I got on tick
• Sat there shaking like a little bitch I couldn't handle it
• The walls were closing in... all my friends had turned to manikins
• Robots I couldn't recognise a single one
• Spinning out to fuck I was convinced that my time was up
• I couldn't breath I found my eye sight closing in
• Heart beating so hard it actually broke my ribs
• Ii started fitting, foaming from the mouth too
• eyes rolling back to the Rhythm of the loud tunes
• Screamed out in a last attempt to get help
• But little did I realise I was already in hell
• I herd a voice I didn't recognise at first
• then an overwhelming vision of a guy inside a hearse
• but no one else was there, the driver wore a black cloak
• Speeding down the highway to hell, as he cracked jokes
• I tried to scream but I couldn't speak
• That's when I woke up to my best friend screaming at me
• He said id OD'd and died, cold cardiac arrest
• And he had tried CPR but nothing in my chest
• So he assumed that i was dead
• Scatting out scared all these other cunts
• 20 minuets passed with my face grey-blue
• That;s when Dan Webster died and D-TOX came too
• Now you wonder why I write ma?
• I don't think gangster, I don't think I'm hard
• I just cant put pen to paper without it writing bars
• And if you died n went to hell n then came back
• Don't you think that chances are YOU wouldn't be the same chap.
