Addiction
Addiction is a powerful thing,
That grips at someones soul.
You try and try to fight it,
But still it takes control.
You don't like the way it makes you feel,
Those demons deep inside.
Still you entertain it,
Thinking it's keeping you in stride.
But let me tell you this my friend,
It's out to still your life.
It hurts the ones who love you most,
Your family,friends,husband or wife.
Addiction pulls no punches,
It effects every way of life.
From the richest to the poorest,
The young and old alike.
The only way to beat it,
Is remember "It's a fight",
The one you know you've got to win,
Or feel deaths stinging bite.
That grips at someones soul.
You try and try to fight it,
But still it takes control.
You don't like the way it makes you feel,
Those demons deep inside.
Still you entertain it,
Thinking it's keeping you in stride.
But let me tell you this my friend,
It's out to still your life.
It hurts the ones who love you most,
Your family,friends,husband or wife.
Addiction pulls no punches,
It effects every way of life.
From the richest to the poorest,
The young and old alike.
The only way to beat it,
Is remember "It's a fight",
The one you know you've got to win,
Or feel deaths stinging bite.
