I've made it through the darkness, slowly found the light.
Cried through the madness, crawled through the night.
Everyday was my struggle, I faced it alone.
Until I knew my true calling, did I find my own.
I am an addict, I have a disease.
With problems I face, I solve on my knees.
I've been beaten, raped, sexually abused.
Maybe that's why I picked up & just had to use.
Drugs were my solution, I thought that, through time.
Soon did I make me a life full of crime.
So yeah, I know what street life was about.
and if you want help there is a way out.
Start you a program, work the 12 steps.
No dues or fees, to keep you in debt.
Pray to your Higher Power, down on your knees.
Unlock the lock with the AA keys.
Every day will get better & you soon have no doubt.
That if you really want help, there is a way out!
