Got Off Again (not a good thing)

It's probably not a good thing
but I won't do any time
because I am an addict
I get probation for my crime

they say I'll do a program
but if it's 30 days or less
there's no way that will stop me
this much I will confess

I'm better off in jail
where I can't get away
cause programs piss me off
and I never ever stay

I'm not a 12 stepper
never in a million years
will I believe that god will help me
not even with my fears

I used to go to church
I even used to pray
but still i was an addict
nothing I did changed my ways

But prison was the tell all
I spent 6 months in jail
no one came to see me
and I couldn't make the bail

but when the 6 months was over
I felt so good inside
I didn't want to use
I didn't want to lie

I felt like a new person
singing a brand new song
I stayed that way for a time
but then something went wrong

I woke up in the middle of the night
the cravings were intense
I couldn't say no anymore
nothing made any sense

I went and bought a bag
I smoked all through the night
I went through money like water
I didn't fight the fight

Now I wish I never gave up
never strayed from the path
cause now I'm just an addict
addicted to the devils wrath
