Drugs
Woman your son has died
we need you to give an identification
So please can you come with us
his body at the morgue at the station
We are sorry for your lost
As she cries over his body
"He was my only boy"
and now he’s taken away from me
Woman your son was selling drugs
Dealing in cocaine and hash
Destroying children life’s
with his greed for the luxury of cash
He was a very good son
He never done no wrong
Still denying the truth
as they Lowered him into the ground
Drugs can ruin your life
And make it spin out of control
And because of your son
It took the life from a little girl
Tears at her funeral
A father’s heart is bled
So he got a gun that day’
And woman "now your son is dead
A father lose his little girl
A mother lose her son
A father sits in jail
Their grief’s will never done
This is the crazy world
This is the sign of the times
Movies and TV shows
Glorifying a life of crime
What some children see
Is what some children will learn
Corrupting their young minds
Down a road of no return
A another dealer sells again
And another life will go
this violence will never end
it keeps going round in a circle
Drugs will never stops
and many more will have to die
Until that heavenly day
When Jesus returns from the sky
