You know, I used to look up to your lifestyle
Noone could drink or get laid as you used to
I'm trying hard, but can't follow your footsteps
I guess I need to do drugs, just to fit in......if not I can't keep the pace

So now you want to compete with my lifestyle
Well, there's more to a man than his surface
Maybe I drank and got laid at some parties
but you're a fool if you seek a connection...........then you should not drink at all

What happened to my macho friend?
Is he pretending he's a holy man?
Now, you've retired no-one else has the right to have fun, or what are you trying to SAAAYYYY
I can't believe you don't want me to follow your path...are you afraid I will exceed your reputation

Now, That's enough
You've played with fire for a while
Inject the drugs
And then we'll see how long you last

What happened to my macho friend?
Now, he's pretending he's a decent man
Forsaking drugs though he always enjoyed them himself, or what is he trying to SAAAYYYY
I can't believe that you're turning the back on your past.......instead of hailing it

You talk the talk....instead of hearing what I say
I did do drugs....that's why my dreams have been delayed
Some days I'm calm and charming, some days I'm practically insane
No drugs could fancy the ladies, they only help me impress all my friends

There's one thing you never knew about me and the way I was living my life
Of course I could drink and get stoned, but I certainly didn't stay high all the time
When on my own I recovered and built up my body to stay on the top
That's why you're a fool if you follow my footsteps - not knowing when to withdraw
Live strong, die young....only the morons believe it is cool to burn out!!!

Live strong, live long.....the goal is the same, just added some brain!!!

I hear what you say, but I don't get the point
If you could handle the balance, then why shouldn't I?
