What about the verse "silence, the only promise ever kept?" is this refering to things that might get put off because of highs? like hes high and he promised to do something but got high instead and couldnt do what he promised maybe? or am i being retarded i dont know, most of my interpretations have been way off compared to other peoples

Yeah, it might mean that because of his drug addiction the promise he can keep is one he didn't make.
