Short Link to this Quote:
Whitney Houston is expressing frustration and regret with her past drug use in this quote. She is saying that if the drug dealers who sold her $730,000 worth of drugs over time had shared some of the money they made off of her addiction with her, she may have been less likely to continue using.
However, she realizes demanding to see receipts from drug dealers to prove how much they profited is not a realistic request. Overall, it seems she is acknowledging the financial and personal toll her drug addiction took, and wishing things had gone differently.
