Smoking a Day Kills a Life Away

Have you no shame No, fear nor heart, No one who can tame Have you no understanding of How to use your delicate brain Is it so necessary? One puff is all one need, to kill a creature And boom, it becomes a bad deed Can't you think for once, how it will harm? The young, the old, it’s like a bad luck charm How it decreases your super tiny life The dead would rather wish to be alive Here you are giving it all away in vain Ended up plotting your own death What I ask you, will you ever gain? Addicted you are and you might forever be Are those memories so unbearable to see? You want to forget better find another way Solution is right in front, so you had better stay Cigarette is not the problem to your matter The only thing it will ever do is kill and shatter Think of those suffering because you are insane Who cannot breathe … Who are in profound pain? Who wishes to re-write those days gone Without any, more further complaint Lungs collapsed, back cut open It sounds horror to even be spoken A life in hospital does not sound great It might be a joke to you but Trust me it's never too late It is not easy not to breathe To be strong and not grieve I beg you to listen to me I do not promise, it to be easy For your own sake stay Stand up and fight your way Life is too small to fight With trials of diseases that lay For humanity’s sake stop with this play AN INNOCENT CIGARETTE A DAY WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE IN A HUGE WAY...
