State of Addiction 2025

Letra:

ja nem sei oque fazer
ta tudo a minha frente mas eu não consigo ver
tu não tas aqui então oque e que eu vou fazer?
vou me so drogar para ver se vou morrer

tas sempre a lixar
eu não te fiz nada mas tu tas só a ignorar
podias pelo menos parar para explicar
isto e uma brincadeira e tu tas so a brincar

eu ja tou cheio de medo
nesta relação eu sou só um passatempo, brinquedo
com quem tas só a brincar
mas isso e na boa vou acabar por me matar

não me queres ver a tua frente
dizes que não vais voltar não importa oque eu tente
eu nem falo com muita gente
agora que me deixaste vou mandar droga pra dentro

mandar droga

prod by me

love hearin those lies
you're wearing my smile
so i'm wearing sad now
i don't wanna find out

and i'm feelin so fine
damn, i'm feelin just right
head feelin like a rollercoaster
i just want to zone the fuck out

i just want to zone the fuck out

i just wanna find a way out

i just wanna

i just wanna tear the walls down
i don't wanna face the world now
i don't wanna let you down

love hearin those lies
you're wearing my smile
so i'm wearing sad now
i don't wanna find out

and i'm feelin so fine
damn, i'm feelin just right
head feelin like a rollercoaster
i just want to zone the fuck out

LΔWIN – Cannabis vs Opioids
A tense exchange between patient and physician, confronting the clash between lived experience and medical orthodoxy. In this short conversation, a GP dismisses cannabis in favor of continued opioid use—against a growing body of scientific evidence supporting cannabinoid therapy for chronic pain.

This recording captures more than a consultation; it’s a snapshot of a system at odds with itself. The soundscape is raw, unfiltered, and honest—voices blurred, IDs redacted, truth still audible.
