Communities

Growing up in poverty is a hard one
And alcohol and drug the norm once begun
If you don’t have good role models 
How can it be ideal just part of the hell

If money into Communities is not the answer
Then how do you change for the better is a ponder 
And we are left with broken people you see
To live life for them is not easy.
