Addict Songtext

Addict Songtext
What exactly is sizzurp?
Well, despite its growing popularity, the drug
Can be highly addictive and very dangerous
Rap artists talk about it in their music and endorse
It in their videos, but it′s a powerful street drug
The drug is known as drank or syrup, a potentially lethal
Combination of the prescription drug codeine and soda
Early stages of addiction, my mind's still intact
Still able to keep this paper with this monkey on my 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 motherfucker, nobody gon′ stop me
Sweets for weeks and every single day we shoppin′
Cases of that Rosé and pounds of that kush
Keep the circle small, this hard line we gon' push
There ain′t no man greater than the team that he's on
Some people fallin′ off when they dreams is all gone
Some folks washed up, they self-esteem is all gone
Told 'em talk to a line, they can be no wrong
So it′s one for the money, two to keep me blowed
Three to keep us free when ain't nowhere left to go
And the raise will take effort but that effort's not enough
And the love you have to lose will
Keep slippin′ through the clutches, ma
Project Brown Jack, Screw, and Gucci
AR Records, DJ Chose
The love you have to lose will keep slippin′ through the clutches
Now have you ever had a feeling that something wasn't right?
Imagine living with that feeling every day of your life
And the shit is so strong, it′s burning on the inside
I really wanna right my wrongs, but I can't quit getting high
And I can′t quit riding 'round with that thirty on my side
′Cause I'm still in the streets where some of my peers died
And they say they'll hold me down, but I just wanna fly
I′ll probably never make it to the top, but I just wanna try
Yo, they locked my nigga Coz, now he doin′ life
He said that the time was the smallest price
Can't be with his kids, it′s a suicide
But now he sees the plan they have for you and I
The pigs give the hood a scan, all day they cruisin' by
They look us up and down, they plan a raid then move us out
Of our communities, gangs establishing unity
I won′t sell out to the system, so they try ruin me
They hope this shit just blow over so they won't lose to me
Every day a new listener is asking, "Who is he?"
A nigga tempted by whispers to do some evil thing
So I try establish prayer in a illegal game
Give me the paper, my nigga, ′cause I don't need the fame
A closer bond with the Creator is what I need to gain
Still I'm tryna make us rich so we won′t need a gang
I′m tired of breaking the promise that I won't leave again
I chop it up with old timers, they tell me just sustain
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 lifers that′ll barber us who once was a king
In the streets where a strong man weeps
When he thinks of his mistakes so all we can't sleep
'Til the sunrise in search of a fun time
Lost love, hope she thinks of me sometime
