Alcoholic

We have learn to take away the pain 
And there is more than just one way 
Drinking to not feel the pain 
And sometimes we don’t have to pay
Some call us alcoholics
Just cause we drink everyday 
Some say it’s just a game we play
Just to get rid of this stress
We drink to kill all of this
We only do it for our best
If we don’t drink one day 
We would absolutely go insane
There's no need to even pray 
We will still do this the same
Why would people want to complain? 
If it helps us get rid of the pain
It’s hard for one to know what’s best
We drink cause that’s all what’s left
