My mind is up and down like a yoyo
Eyes all around looking for the popo
Paranoid, freakin’, jumpy like a pogo
Red faced, dull eyes, alcoholic logo
The life I am living is fake
All ‘hair of the dog’ and ‘wake and bake’
That’s no way to live, I got so much to give
Satisfied with getting fried on each and every dime
Liquefied suicide one sip at a time
Mortified and terrified of my downward climb
Horrified, I recognize this slow death in my prime
The most fucked up in the room
Sensing a feeling of impending doom
As I recklessly zoom from womb to tomb
The life I am living is fake
All ‘hair of the dog’ and ‘wake and bake’
That’s no way to live, I got so much to give
The message I found in the bottles I was drinkin’
Finally opened my eyes and set me to thinkin’
Am I gonna keep digging this hole that I dug
Or will I really learn to plug the jug
It's not easy to quit so most people won't
Society makes it legit so what's the damn point
I really don’t need it yo I know that I don’t
I’ll wind up in the hospital, the morgue or the joint
There has got to be a better path
That doesn’t incur this daily wrath
So I slowed my roll and bided my time
Took out the trash one piece at a time
Cause tis what tis, taint what taint
I ain’t never gonna be a saint
The life I was living was fake
No more ‘hair of the dog’ or ‘wake and bake’
Cause that’s no way to live, I got so much to give
