Lethal Dosage

I think I took an overdose while sipping on a bottle,
took the pills and set my engine riding on full throttle.
My heart is beating faster, the drug is coursing thru my vein,
o woe is me, the lion that messed around and lost his mighty mane.

I've been strong, endured what many can't imagine,
and I never thought I'd have a point where I would turn my badge in.
you see, we all have a moment of heartache, pain and loss,
but it's what you do in those moments, that shows you who's your boss.

I refused to get pumped, maybe I should of used a knife,
now I'm laying on the floor begging god for my life.
I'm not a man of faith and I took so much I shouldn't be here today.
and now that I'm seeing clearer, this time I'm really gonna stay.

I am limping, still have a pretty nasty bruise,
but I will keep on walking, on this better path that I choose.
