Slave No More Lyrics
Slowly drowning through my own abuse
Nothing changes anymore
Thought I’d taste the freedom long ago
Not the man I was before
Slave no more
Slave no more
Hold that bottle as I start to sink - comatose and fading slow
One more time I always tell myself
Dragged down by the undertow
Nothing changes anymore
Thought I’d taste the freedom long ago
Not the man I was before
Slave no more
One more time I always tell myself
Dragged down by the undertow

Confronting/overcoming alcoholism, or some other addiction. No longer being a "slave" to it.
Sounds like most alcohol because of "Hold that bottle."
Most definitely. Kirk has said many times that he suffered from alcholism.
Most definitely. Kirk has said many times that he suffered from alcholism.
Alcoholism is an on-going dilema for Kirk, a fact we can derive from other songs such as "Failure to Delay Gratification". Another song that we can see this in is "Lasting Dose".
It would do any man a great deal of good to experience the wealth of sorrow and torement that Kirk has went through via his lyrics as opposed to experiencing the formidable disease/condition of alcoholism. It truely is crippling and leads only to an early, lonely, death.
