Like A Bomb



Like A Bomb...
Rehab at Age 14,
Lost All ready & Barley Seen.
By 17 I was A Basket Case,
Old man's Soul with A Child's Face .
By 18 all I could do was just try & hold on cuz I was coming unglued.
A constant stream of Drinking & Drugs.
I lost myself before I Even knew who I was
My life Exploded like Like a Bomb,
Flashbacks of Smoking Crack With Mom.
My Demon Embraced Me With Tact & Charm,
Scars on My Soul &  Scars On My Arms.
I was now an Expert in Self Medicating,
An Artist of Self Harm.
Blackouts , Overdose,  Pure insanity,
This  was Just Another Day For Me.
To perform in life  I Was simly unable,
Worthless & Dirty Read My Lable.
Yet I'm not Weak Or Call Myself Victim,
A Dog Gets Stronger The More  You Kick Em.
So I never gave up,  Never Stopped Fighting
I Scream My Messge Now There's No Holding Back or Hiding.
So Just Believe in Yourself  As Much As I Do,
If Something As  Broken As Me Can Cage my Demon,
You Can F#@king Do IT  Too!
Don't Give Up
