There And Back — текст песни (Biohazard)

I`ve just returned from a long round trip
Many tales I have to tell.
Now I don`t get high,
so you think I`m not hip
But I`ve seen the gates of Hell.
How can a youth rise above all the shit
When surrounded
by such lousy influence?
He clutched his pipe, took his last hit,
And nobody`s heard from him since.
Chorus
In this world of confusion
Drugs were my solution
The pain was breaking my heart.
I shut out my reality
Nearing my fatality,
found myself falling apart.
Miserable, horrible, life such an obstacle
Making my own matters worse.
To end up dead in a dark alleyway
Or to ride in the back of a hearse.
To die for a cause like pride or respect
Or honor would make you quite worthy;
A pitiful waste to live in the sewer
And die before you reach thirty.
Chorus (4x)
Cop a bag as a crutch
copping out, lose so much
Hangin` out, dippin` butts
Lost my mind smoking dust
There and back
Back in the days I was living a lie
Too cool to show my feelings,
too cool to cry
Lost in a fog and unsure of my friends
With a one way ticket
headed strait for the end
As the flames burnt the rope
and my spirit cut loose
I found my self wrapped
in an emotional noose
I said to myself continue no longer
Today I face the world with a mind
that is stronger
Spent my time gettin` nice
I crapped out rolling dice
Look at me and my scars
Now I live pure and hard
There and back (4x)
