Boarded up buildings plague these streets
Old crackhouses have been put to sleep
Girls on the corner pulling their tricks
Junkies come and go looking for a fix
One block gets busted they move to the next
Pushing their shit thinking they have the best
Police on your ass and as your copping more shit
You'd rarther be dead then in jail fucking sick
The lucky ones die, cause the hell never ends
You lose all you have, you lose all your friends
Even if your clean, people can seem to forgive
Sobriety makes eveyday much harder to live
Chorus: Junkies all once had normal lives
Addicted, too many reasons why
No more pain,just shame and misery
No hope, no life, friends or family
You've got to push on no matter how bad
Anything is better than the life you had
Clean for a while and the pain's here to stay
The hell never ends and the regrets don't fade
Boredem sets in with only one cure in sight
Building back trust is an everyday fight
Temptations of life get harder to face
You finally give in to that warm embrace
Old crackhouses have been put to sleep
Girls on the corner pulling their tricks
Junkies come and go looking for a fix
One block gets busted they move to the next
Pushing their shit thinking they have the best
Police on your ass and as your copping more shit
You'd rarther be dead then in jail fucking sick
The lucky ones die, cause the hell never ends
You lose all you have, you lose all your friends
Even if your clean, people can seem to forgive
Sobriety makes eveyday much harder to live
Chorus: Junkies all once had normal lives
Addicted, too many reasons why
No more pain,just shame and misery
No hope, no life, friends or family
You've got to push on no matter how bad
Anything is better than the life you had
Clean for a while and the pain's here to stay
The hell never ends and the regrets don't fade
Boredem sets in with only one cure in sight
Building back trust is an everyday fight
Temptations of life get harder to face
You finally give in to that warm embrace
