Someone's Son

On a Blistering chilly cold night in upstate New York, a junkie awaits his last vein-line of the night. The drug guickly takes affect-he feels heat in his neck. Some one father-this man-be. Somegirl's husband, the family will never see. The doormat of life brings Someone Son upon life most studious voice no-more. A mother son, bad news at the door. She goes to answer-the officer say's they're gone. Someone son, someone's friend, get cheated out of life before the rise of the Sun. Now, don't you walk-but do yee run, if he's down, "help him up". Stay away your gun. Alway's remember he's Someone Son.
