This song does not signify the use or abuse of drugs, the TV reports are just add-ons signifing ways of backstabbing, the lyrics alone can show you for example 'as i climb onto your back i promise not to sting' First step acknowledged "Trust'' with trust the 'scorpion' a simile used to personify the back stabber, scorpions are one of the many creatures in this world that cannot express facial expressions for the mere fact that their face has no true detail, basically they have a constant poker face just what a back stabber needs to get into your head if they let off any sign that they are gonna let you down then they are how do i say 'fucked', many people think that gazing into the eyes of the scorpion will let off a sign if it is just warning you or is actually about to sting 'look deep into my face sell deceit without a trace' that there says it all. Just simply this song is about becoming good friends with someone gaining their trust and taking them down.
