If at first I don’t succeed then guess ill try again
Its a vertigo achieved as I question life and death A pressurised ascend with the seven seas in sight The death defying levels become therapy in flight A serenity supplied to a soul that is scarred Youth memories revived with a blotch on the arm Emotionally charged, transfixed in space and time With a shot in the dark, that stimulates the mind Would lift to greater heights in discreet profound ways Imitating life I recently down played So here I’m cloud chasing so I’d forgotten all the stress In the sequence of outweighing all the problems in my head With the option to relent with pleads for advice But a role model of a friend once told me “reach for the sky” Id peaked at sunrise, the light would relight the fires The beams of sunlight would tend to revive the lighters Soon blinded by the flash from the needle it reflects off But the shine just hides the anguish of the people he reflects on Still seething for next shot although hells in reach The reasons it went wrong was a low self-esteem As those nostalgic beats before had me sent tumbling down They wont help in redemption with them junkies around I’m left wondering how long I’ve got, with no response As my heads stuck in the clouds I want to go beyond I know it wont be long if I dont start to battle the craving gotta stop the holding on and man up and face it The hits, took me back to my eighth birthday without troubles of the past No hassle or pain just hanging with Woody and the gang Nothing there could sadden me, more bliss than I ever imagined Finally, id let go and stood up to the class…. “Hi, I’m Andy and I’m a heroin addict”!
