I'm not an addict yet. But I'm addicted to the street. I can't say your statement is a constant truth. My addiction to the street is based off adrenaline, not trap sold drugs. I've never done more than weed and mushrooms - a long time ago.

The streets about freedom, people aren't necessarily there for drugs. But drugs play a huge role in how people into the freedom of street life survive. If you're selling drugs you can be free. The fiends are pawns and used like cattle for cash. It's really twisted and fucked up and I often wonder why people push so hard for trendy political change but aren't willing to bring it to street thugs. Some people even make their money killing. The amount of shit I've gathered from having one foot in the street... I guarantee there is no such thing as law an order in America. Unless maybe you have money your might see some of that traditional American image.
