{Lyrics} U make me look inside myself U concerned bout mental health, look at yourself I would jump out if u just wanna leave Look in my eyes everything you deceive is gone Leave me alone If you would leave I could get in my zone Heroin dreams why you calling my phone She open up to me, but I have not shown myself I am not grown Awful emotions I feel in my soul I'm playing a character, fit in my role I got a beast in my heart I control It's tearin' me whole Chorus} And ohh My ghost has stole my soul And ohh My angel starts fall
Sick video, a fitting tribute to a legend, it’s unfortunate that the same sensitivities that make for a great creator, make the pain and suffering of the world so vivid, that drugs and alcohol can feel like the only way to turn down the volume. I am not going to pretend like I don’t even today that I don’t feel a rush of approval when I hear a rapper reference opioid use in a song, and it’s not even just about thinking that drugs are cool, or that they are a useful tool, but knowing that people I respect struggle with the same feelings and find similar solutions, even if they can be immeasurably destructive in a long term context, makes me feel validated in my experiences.
