The Jacka, Reese LAFLARE, Carey Stacks - Addict lyrics

Early stages of addiction
My mind still attached
Still able to keep this paper with
This monkey on by back
My friends don't really notice cause
They all high too hit a lick for a brick
And it's all mines too
Greedy like a motherfucka
Nobody could stop me
Sweets for weeks and every
Single day we shopping
Cases of that rozay, pounds of that kush
Keep the circle small
It's hard line we gon push
Ain't no man greater than the
Team that he's on
Some people fallin' off when their
Dreams is all gone folks washed up
Their self-esteem is all gone
Told 'em, talk to Allah there can be no wrong
So, it's one for the money
Two to keep me blowed
Three to keep us free when
There nowhere left to go
And take effort, best effort's not enough
And the love you have to lose
It keeps slippin' through the clutch (Mob)

Have you ever had a feeling
That something wasn't right?
Imagine living with that feeling
Everyday your life
And this shit is so strong
It's burning on the inside
I really want to right my wrongs
But I can't quit getting high
And I can't quit ridin' round with
That 30 on my side
Cause, I'm still in the streets where
Some of my peers died
Then they say they hold me down
But I just wanna fly
Probably never make it to the top
But I just wanna try

They locked my nigga Kaz, now he doin' life
He said that the time was the smallest price
Can't be with his kids is the suicide
But now he sees the plan they
Have for you and I
The pig get a hood and scan all day
They cruisin' by they look us up and down
They plan a raid to move us out
Of our communities, gangs establishin' unity
I won't sell out to this system
So they try to ruin me
They hope this shit just blow over
So they won't lose to me
Everyday a new listener is asking
"Who is he?" a nigga tempted by whispers to
Do some evil things
So I try establish prayer in a illegal game
Gimme the paper ma nigga cuz
I don't need the fame
I call with the creator
It's what I need the game
Still I'm trynna make us rich so
We won't need the game
I'm tired of breaking the promise
That I won't leave again
I chop it up with old timers
They told me just to stay
I'm seeing zeros and commas same
Time I catch a drain
I'm seeing niggas had it harder
So I can't complain
I'm seeing life as that a barber's
Who once was a king
In the streets where a strong man weeps
When he thinks of his mistakes
So on we can't sleep till the sun rise
In search of a fun time
Lost love, hope she thinks of me sometime
