The end of stress


Since I cannot cope with this stress

I take this patron down till it stench my breathe

and at the bottles end I still don't feel less

I actually feel

more depressed

and some say depression is just preoccupation with self

so maybe if I occupy my time with sex

that would help

I heard em say pussy and patron make you feel alright

pussy and patron that's some great advice

so I take another chick down

adding another chip to an already broken life

my friends witness all this

and think I'm just about that life

you only live once is what they chant

and they are right

for after that bottle and that whore

there was nothing left but death
