You Don'T Need Me

I am What You Think You Need; I love to turn your life to greed. The need for me grows with each passing day, I am evil and on the weak, I will prey. I make you feel so good at times, But I cause you to commit some serious crimes. I am so appealing in so many ways, But leave your life in one big haze. I become your God and I am all you need, When I am not around you will begin to plead. I destroy lives and I also kill, Only because you needed a thrill. Well now here is the truth and I hope you hear, I will ruin your life and everyone that is dear. I mess with your life and your brain, I make you think you are going insane. I make you feel you are all alone, I cause you to chase away everyone, you have known. You own nothing because I took it away, I am so important you become my prey. I cause you to do things that are really bad, Instead of being happy, you are always sad. Is this really the way you want your life to be, Then if I am offered to you just turn and flee. Drugs control your body and mind, So leave that life way behind. Pray that God gives you the strength you need, And from the drug life you will be freed.
