letra de the addiction - fj outlaw

(intro)
a while ago i met this guy named jimmy
jimmy was a homeless dude
so i decided to buy him some lunch
and as we spoke throughout our meal
he explained to me the story of what he was going through at the time
so i wanted to tell ya’ll the story
how he told it to me

hey there
hey there h-llo my friend
hey there
hey there

(verse)
jay he said man every day that i wake up i’m still surrounded by this poverty
momma tells me everything’s okay ’cause jesus walks with me
i really wanna see it but right now it’s really hard to see
i know but i just wish that for a day it wouldn’t bother me
everybody struggles through their trials and their tribulations
whether it’s dope or other people talking sh-t and hatin’
born into the semi habits bring me really close to satan
wishing i could go but i’m too broke to buy my own vacation

i’m panicking scr-ping quarters for another set
my people tell me that i need to get my life on track
mentality is f-ck ‘em brush ’em off and take another whack
i try so hard to quit but every time i end up going back

and everybody thinks it’s easy to quit
i go without for half a day i start to cramp and i twitch
i’m so depressed i feel so horrible i’m feeling like sh-t
my muscles throb inside my body like they’re pitching a fit

i can’t be mad at anybody that i grew an addiction
i had that hatred for reality and made the decision
i love drugs and that there is why i’m in this position
i feel the need to get away from all this stress that i’m living
and they say

(chorus)
hey there h-llo my friend
i hope you know i’ll be there ’til the end
even though i leave i be back again
’til the day you die we’ll be best friends
and i’ll take you from your family
further than their eyes can see
i don’t care if it’s just you and me
we can die right here in this poverty
(verse)
hey yo i’m 29 and i have yet to buy a house or even own a car
i spend my days in alley ways and all my nights in bars
my arms are bleeding and my face is so deformed from scars
it’s crazy but when i was young i thought that i could reach the stars

i got a sign that says i’m homeless every penny helps
i go to stores and have to steal my sh-t from off the shelves
i’m doing anything i can to gain a little wealth
and every day i’m slowly ruining my mental health

i crave the feeling every time the poison hits my brain
i’m living life but from the start it hasn’t been the same
my family left me long ago i always feel ashamed
but every time i think about it i am not to blame

i’m so alone i have no home or anywhere to sleep
at times i question as to if i’ve gotten in too deep
i feel like death is on its way and i can feel the creep
but i’m too high to question why i can’t get on my feet

it’s getting colder in these woods with all the days that pass
he’s shivering he feels the numbness in his arms and ass
he didn’t think that he would spiral to the point he has
nor did he imagine that the high he felt would be his last
(chorus 2)
farewell goodbye my friend
i thought you knew i’d be here til the end
even though i left i came back again
’til the day you died we stayed best friends
and i took you from your family
went further than their eyes can see
i don’t care that it’s just you and me
and you died right here in this poverty

(verse)
yeah today’s a week since jimmy died and all his family just got the news
his momma cried ’cause deep inside she’s dying from the blues
she tried to tell him from the start that it was bad to use
dying in their heart because she knew that in the end he’d lose

her son is gone and every day she feels a little worse
she tries to smile but remembers instantly and hurts
throughout the day she sits and thinks about her very words
please just try to quit cause i don’t want to see you in a he-rs-

but that’s just life and that’s the way the story had to end
’cause jimmy felt that heroin could be his closest friend
so now he’s gone and we can never see his smile again
’cause jimmy fought a losing battle he could never win

(chorus 2)
farewell goodbye my friend
i thought you knew i’d be here til the end
even though i left i came back again
’til the day you died we stayed best friends
and i took you from your family
went further than their eyes can see
i don’t care that it’s just you and me
and you died right here in this poverty

(outro)
the addiction

if you or somebody you know
is battling with addiction
seek help before it’s too late
a good amount of people struggle
but you don’t have to end the story like jimmy did
