(Verse 1: Spit)
This thing has immersed us ever since the first puff
Head over heels for how it feels like a first love
Sitting in a circle anxious arguing who's first up
Epidemic in this town has cursed us
Once upon a time you loved all sports a local footy small fort
Now you're frantically fought calling to score more
You stay up all weekend and burn it through to weekdays
Chucking for a grand bag quick to split it three ways
Now you can't see straight haven't slept in three days
Mate calls concern for you ignore whatever he'd say
You're feeling so low with a need to get higher
And you got the pipe so who's got the lighter
You wake up to yourself just after an all nighter
Another big user who started a small time
Told mummy was clean but she'd seen it before
Half the day he's out the door cause he's fiending for more
(Verse 2: Mac)
He's acting like he's flatlining he could be dying
He said that he'd be backfighting he should be trying
Why's it always backfiring time and time again
Needing to get higher and then he can feel alive again
Cause ever since somebody gave him a lighter he's been playing with fire
Maybe that's what made him retire
Used to be a ball player now he's sleeping all day and up all night
So you might say he's a liar when he swears he doesn't do the shit
Friends say he's losing it waiting for his mood to flip he’s acting like a lunatic
Started as a troubled teen happy to be moving in
Now he's got a couple fiends clapping in a room with him
If you were 14 introduced to a crack pipe before weed
That might lead you to smack ice or morphine
Your sleeves covering tracks right before dreams even come true but that's life we all bleed
(Verse 3: Spit)
Now everyone's gathered round a bowl and a pipe with an addiction that is quick to take control of your life
Watch it all melt away while you're holding that lighter
Left looking like a zombie with no soul inside ya
He had beers on a Friday night yeah he smoked a little weed
Then it escalated met a dude who did a bit of speed
Gave him a puff of ice man it felt fucking nice
Now you chase that rush because you're stuck in time
Judging by his IQ never was a dumb dude
Now he's on the edge and I think he's gonna jump soon
Used to have a lot of mates now he's got the one crew
Talking with a lot of hate funny what the drugs do
Money for the drugs you drop it in a heartbeat
Hungry for the buzz too probably why you can't sleep
Happened in the last week thought you're in the clear again
