Ectsasy

Started seeing the effects of you,

17 and clubbing,

Eclipse was the place to be,

The first of its kind, nationally.

 

Turning hooligans into friendships, the thing to do,

Business came later,

Fast money changing hands,

Soon spread to bigger cities, naturally.

 

Feel the love,

Embrace the physiological changes,

All night clubbing, 

Sweat, gurning, everyone happy.

 

Disaster struck,

Leah Betts,

Poor young girl,

Tragically.

 

Essex boys, leading the charge,

Who do they think they are,

Swaggering about,

Charlie big spuds, loudly.

 

There time quickly came and went,

Fuckin notorious, lots of noise

Bang, bang,

Range rover story, ended, quickly.

 

26 was the first time I popped one,

Holiday romance, What a crazy time,

A first for many things,

Fond memories, scouse girl, Vicky.

 

The rush of arousal,

Shooting through my body,

This is fuckin wicked, I can't control the gurning,

Enjoy it, so happy.

 

Brain woke up to the opportunities involved,

Money,

Order a few at a time, Am very disciplined,

Business grew rapidly.

 

Bags of pills arriving now,

That unique smell,

MDMA,

Memories cascading.

 

Became a stepping stone, 

Other opportunities,

Leave this business, 

Bloody too risky.

 

Memories are fond, Love taking a pill,

My annual release,

Good to let go,

So happy.

 

Don't like the effects, 

Feeling proper shit,

Come downs, Price you pay,

Trutfully.
