* Music/KneecapBand: Grian Chatten's segment of "Better Way To Live" portrays a man stuck in a downward spiral due to alcohol. Lyrics mention that he got a glimpse of something better ("heaven"), however "I know it exists, but I can't stop getting pissed" and "I think all day, but when I drink I'm okay".

* Music/AliceInChains had '''several''' songs that touched on drug use and the damage done, with some directly addressing addiction itself, such as "Junkman" which is from the perspective of someone who both deals and uses ("What's my drug of choice? / Well, what have you got? / I don't go broke / And I do it a lot") and "Godsmack", which is about reacting negatively to someone who's become a heroin addict ("What in God's name have you done? / Stick your arm for some real fun", "For the horse you've grown much fonder / Than for me, that I don't ponder").
