Drug Dealer |
They said it wasn’t a gateway drug |
My homie was takin' subs and he ain’t wake up |
The whole while, these billionaires, stay caked up |
Paying out congress so we take their drugs |
Murderers who will never face the judge |
And we dancin' to a song about our face goin' numb |
But I seen homies turn grey, noses draining blood |
I could’ve been gone, out 30s, faded in that tub |
That’s Prince, Michael and Whitney, that’s Amy, Ledger and Pimp C |
That’s Yams, that’s DJ A. M |
God damn they’re making a killing |
Now it’s getting attention cause Sara, Katey and Billy |
But this shit’s been going on from Seattle out to South Philly |
It just moved about the city |
And it spread out to the 'burbs |
Now it’s everybody’s problem, got a nation on the verge |
Take Activis off the market, jack the price up on the syrup |
But Purdue Pharma’s 'bout to move that work |
My drug dealer was a doctor, doctor |
Had the plug from Big Pharma, Pharma |
He said that he would heal me, heal me |
But he only gave me problems, problems |
My drug dealer was a doctor, doctor |
Had the plug from Big Pharma, Pharma |
I think he trying to kill me, kill me |
He tried to kill me for a dollar, dollar |
And these devils they keep on talkin' to me |
They screamin' «open the bottle,"I wanna be at peace |
My hand is gripping that throttle, I’m running out of speed |
Tryin' close my eyes but I just keep on sweatin' through these sheets, |
through these sheets |
Four horseman, they won’t let me forget |
I wanna forge a prescription, cause doctor I need some more of it |
When morphine and heroin is more of your a budget |
I said I’d never use a needle, but sure, fuck it |
I’m caught up, I’m on one, I’m nauseous |
No options, exhausted |
This is not what I started |
Walkin' carcass, I lost everything I wanted |
My blinds drawn, too gone to leave this apartment |
My drug dealer was a doctor, doctor |
Had the plug from Big Pharma, Pharma |
He said that he would heal me, heal me |
But he only gave me problems, problems |
My drug dealer was a doctor, doctor |
Had the plug from Big Pharma, Pharma |
I think he trying to kill me, kill me |
He tried to kill me for a dollar, dollar |
More, more, more |
Re-up, re-up |
Death certificate signed the prenup |
Ain’t no coming back from this Percocet |
Actavis, Ambien, Adderall, Xanax binge |
Best friends with the thing that’s killing me |
Enemies with my best friend, there’s no healing me |
Refilling these, refilling these |
They say it’s death, death |
Institutions and DOCs |
So God grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change |
Courage to change the things I can |
And the wisdom to know the difference |
And the wisdom to know the difference |
