I was tring to find out why Hoyt wrote this song. At frist I thought, "Snowblind," was a reference to cocaine. However, the lyrics suggest otherwise. "Flyin low, Die'n Slow" Would suggest heroin, therefore, "Snowblind," must be a reference to, "China White," a type of heroin known for it's color. Mexican heroin is brown and less potent. "Snow," a.k.a. cocaine, is an uplifting, euphoric type of high and wouldn't leave you, "Lyin on the pavement." But does anyone know why he wrote it? Was it because of a personal experince?

@AquaMan6960 His mother was a heroin addict. She was selling pu**y when she got pregnant with him, so one would think he might be thankful for the drug, but noooo.... Some people you just can't please.
