Lyrics: Anthony McGlinchey
[Intro]
I don’t know why so many of the kids that I used to know
Chose addiction, that direction one the worst to go
[Chorus]
I don’t understand why that they did it
I mean, I did too for a while, I’ll admit it
But I got tired of livin’ my life ‘toxicated
All I smoke is ganja vine, just get way less faded
Tryna save my mind before I get way too brainless
You should see the way their eyes sink in on they faces
All I hope and pray is that y’all get y’all lives together
If it’s for depression, promise y’all things get better
[Verse]
And now I switched to reefer, reefer, reefer, reefer, reefer, reefer
I feel better, no longer sweatin’ like I got a damn fever
To the youth, man, stay away from drugs, them bitches just straight evil
I used to need ‘em, they’d be depletin’
I’d get to tweakin’, for no good reason
Go into withdrawal, havin' a seizure
Boy, go to rehab, that shit is treason against my whole culture, which is dope dealin'
Became a muse to St. Stephen
But believe me, getting clean wasn't easy
Had to leave behind motha****in' Sleezy, a whole piece of me
Damn, 'posed to act like that whole part of my life is just a feature (Feature)
But nah, that part of my life is one of the best
Even though that zone is full of regrets
The choices I made some of my worst
The memories that came I hold to my chest
[Refrain]
Where am I? This is not my place
Looked in the mirror, how come I don't know my face?
[Chorus]
I don’t understand why that they did it
I mean, I did too for a while, I’ll admit it
But I got tired of livin’ my life ‘toxicated
All I smoke is ganja vine, just get way less faded
Tryna save my mind before I get way too brainless
You should see the way their eyes sink in on they faces
All I hope and pray is that y’all get y’all lives together
If it’s for depression, promise y’all things get better
