A Note To Myself
look in the mirror you prostitute
see what i see
you sleep with men for many reasons but none for love
you think it compensates for the pain
go ahead and spread your legs die more everyday
you mine as well be a hooker standing on the corner
you pass the time with strangers on your back
saying its only sex what's the matter
go ahead and sniff another line it's only killing your brain
who cares if you burn a whole in your nose or get a blood clot
it makes you feel good till you have no more
here's a shot of hennessey never mind take the bottle
you are a big girl now you graduated to blacking out
the men you sleep with love it when your passed out
you look so cheap and rugged when your drunk
here roll this bag of weed it'll blow your mind away
then jump in the car and drive until you pass out
you are a sad case of the human race when you live like you do
no educatuion no great job you live from check to check
it's time to get your life together and stop living wrong
go ahead and steal from that store again
prison has many cells waiting just for you
your friends and family have written you off
because your living wrong
i am just here to point this out to you
to hold your hand and keep you strong
i am you you are me we are a team we are unity
i am your best friend your only friend your worst enemy
like i said before look in the mirror and you will see me
you can do this for us
