Thinking of all the good times I had
why did everything have to go bad
from the top of being happy
to the bottom of being sad
I started looking for a way to escape the pain
I found drugs as my savior
and threw my whole life down the drain
getting high became a full time job
stealing from anyone I didn’t care who I robbed
I never thought I would take me this far
I said goodbye to my house and farewell to my car
I was even at the point of being a star
my family and friends said Tyrone look at who you are
I stared in the mirror for a short brief time
I tried to find myself but I knew I was gone
skin and bone is all I saw in my reflection
I was at the crossroad no more intersections
death was my angel but God was my protection
and since I knew that more dope through injection
I wanted it all until I fell
getting high was like having a ball
then I thought of all the people that I loved the most
and that’s what saved me
when I hit the floor and overdosed
