i think the first verse is about reflecting on how he came to be a junkie then he 'puts teh hammer down' meaning shooting up to forget

the second verse is describing BEING a junkie.. the paranoia, the law problems.. then again at the end of the song he 'puts the hammer down' again to forget the crap life he has addicted tot he needle.
