Impaired Judgement

-That's really dumb
 -What?
 -Drugs, taking drugs
 -What do you mean?
 -You said drugs can hurt you, how do you know they can?
 -How do you know they can't?
 -How do you know they can?
 -How do you know they can't?
 -How do you know they can?
 Do what you wanna do
 We do this to forget
 Every single day we're dealing with that same shit
 Only thing we know, try to take control
 Can't see it on our own
 Damaging our souls
 And so
 Yeah, teeth are clenched
 Bob Marley in the boat
 Mama hates me
 Rock back and forth in the fetal pose
 Can't speak English
 My back's so heavy
 Mouth's on the tank's spout, take a lethal dose
 Vomit in my hat
 In my lap {blaaah}
 Chase around a rat
 It's my cat? Man fuck that
 Seems bad
 Yeah, middle of the street blasted
 Cops throw me on the hood of the Caprise Classic
 Chess with Jason
 Chest brazen
 He less patient
 Steve King verse Wes Craven
 Less saving
 More God please, shaking soda wet
 Scared to death and Gilbert Gottfried
 Stopping at the green light, nap in the whip
 Rear end a Pontiac, a fat gash on the lip
 One last little sip of 'shroom tea
 At a stranger's front door
 Must've grabbed the wrong room key
 We do this to forget
 Every single day we're dealing with that same shit
 Only thing we know, try to take control
 Can't see it on our own
 Damaging our souls
 And so
 I told myself I'd never follow in the footsteps
 And head straight into that liquor store
 I used to wonder what she did it for
 How could you hate your life enough to never straighten up
 Was it that dad didn't make enough?
 Cash and you made it up
 Some kind of sob story you wrote the ending for
 You didn't have the lives of others so you ended yours
 And I know you didn't mean it
 How could you have seen
 What you do would have you leave before I exited my teens
 They say it's running in my genes
 We love to love what hates us
 If life is nothing but a dream then I should wake up
 Look at the damage that I'm doing
 I'm managing and functional
 But slamming cans of rum and Coke
 My habits of an average 21 year old
 Am I an addict or manic trying to fucking cope?
 And I tell myself I shouldn't
 It's always on my mind
 So I head up to that liquor store to grab another pint
 Because
 We do this to forget
 Every single day we're dealing with that same shit
 Only thing we know, try to take control
 Can't see it on our own
 Damaging our souls
 And so
