Addiction

Synopsis: It may be affecting you or someone you know. Regardless, addiction is a disease and can be beaten.
Some may look at you like your greatness can't be restored
At one point, you were adored, but nowadays, just ignored
But, if there's one thing that we can all be in accord
Comeback stories ROCK; the ones who ignored are now floored
Dark and lifeless moments are the cause of such strain
It's hard to explain the pain and the rain in your brain
All you know is you're getting close to the hour you succumb
Rule of thumb; you control what you're destined to become
You will one day become free from the torments of desire
Abiding in quietude while quietly aiming higher catching fire
This reminds me of Chaka the lion; kingly state of mind
Sleeping, not dead; when you awake, a new life will be designed
Now you move through life like a 3rd eye's on your forehead
Familiarity with the chakras; remember when you were left for dead?
Remembering what was done or said; now you're breaking more bread
How sweet it must feel to fall asleep comfortably in your bed
