  • [Esham]
  • Mama was a junkie, sometimes I used to wonder.
  • Whether she would better of a live or six feet under.
  • Late nights go by no sleep, born into a junkies world,
  • its so deep.
  • Crack pipes, crack valves, cracked up person.
  • somedays its bad and otehr days much worst.
  • Used to never go to sleep in fear, trying to hid the pain.
  • and front like i didnt care.
  • The neighborhood knew just what had happen to me,
  • at night they said the devil was rappin to me.
  • But on the streets I could feel my mothers heartbeat,
  • and everytime she gets frightened, It quickly repeats.
  • The way a junkie lives and what the junkie gives,
  • hard times, and problems and stress with their own kids,
  • no sense in rehibilation, growing up in humilation,
  • the aroma of base makes me choak. I could almost
  • die of the crack smoke. Different men, going out,
  • and coming in and in my eyes I witnessed the first
  • peoples sin, and I was only three, they thought i couldnt,
  • see. But in my eyes Momma was a junkie.
  • [Chorus]
  • [Esham]
  • J-U-N-K-I-E to me some close their eyes and try not to
  • see.But you can still smell the sin just as well my
  • mothers unconscience and trapped in hell.
  • Now here life is on line (line)
  • stuck to the grind(grind)
  • time after time(time)
  • shes on my mind(mind)
  • Im thinking how could this happen to my mother not me bro,
  • but some nigga in my hood is slangin kilos.
  • He's got a spot around the corner *****ed up crib,
  • lord forgive her for all the things she did.
  • Im thinking where was the police when she was
  • buyin this, but i know that the police could
  • give a ***** less. about a another basehead,
  • in the street. But they rather pretend they dont see it
  • when they walk the beat, a black cop aint good for shit
  • but black male and he knows that my mothers out there
  • smoking yale, but black cops are blind they cant see
  • because in my eyes momma was a junkie.
  • [Chorus]
  • [Esham]
  • Mama lived the fast life, pregnant at 14,
  • back in those days it wasnt crack it was heroin,
  • Shot it in her viens to try to ease the pain,
  • an unplanned pregnancy was made then I came,
  • straight from the wound to witness my mama's doom,
  • in and my heard, i knew it that its coming soon.
  • Of all these junkism nieghborhood critisizm,
  • her mind was gone, i felt she needed a exorcism.
  • speedballin booze and the fast times pretty soon,
  • my mama lost her whole *****ing mind, adc welfare
  • recieptent, three children, not enought defadent.
  • few good times, only badtimes and worst from speedballin
  • her mother*****in bursts. I wish i coulda said I love you
  • before she left, now my mind forever haunted with my
  • mama's death, I asked my self how could this happen to
  • me my mother o.d. cuz my mama was a junkie.
  • [Chorus]
