[Verse]
Cost of livin' keep risin', pressure on the neck
Rent got me stressin', can’t catch a single check
Meth on the corner, ease to numb the pain
Burpin’ bottles, lithium and Sudafed chain
[Verse 2]
Gotta pay the bills, workin’ round the clock
Food prices up, eatin’ from a stocked block
Escape with chemistry, blue flames and bubbles
Dangerous path, meth cookin' double troubles
[Chorus]
Feelin’ the squeeze, world in a vise grip
Street drugs dealin’, tight like a vice grip
Life keeps climbin’, bills heavy as a brick
But gettin’ high? Cheap thrills, twisted trick
[Verse 3]
Inflation like a balloon, no room to breathe
Wallet on a diet, hard to believe
Cookin’ crystals, watchin’ shadows on the wall
Cheap escape from a world about to fall
[Bridge]
Spendin’ pennies stretchin’, budget’s gettin’ slim
Yet the meth lab gleamin', lookin’ kinda grim
Cycle of survival, trapped in a haze
Push through the struggle, prayin’ for better days
[Chorus]
Feelin’ the squeeze, world in a vise grip
Street drugs dealin’, tight like a vice grip
Life keeps climbin’, bills heavy as a brick
But gettin’ high? Cheap thrills, twisted trick
