Free Cee Take a Left Right

TAKE A LEFT RIGHT?

You never listen to anything I say
and I told you not to go that way
but your curiosity got the better of you
and you found out what I had said was true

I advised you that i'd been in the very same place
and became trapped by the very same embrace
unable to escape the grasp of desire
but even ogres lose their grip and finally tire

so he had you where he wanted you
and to do whatever he demanded you do
fear took hold of your soul so forcefully you wished you were dead
and inside your head you remembered that which i'd said

fortunately the monster fell asleep for a while
and freedom tasted sweet as a smile
that monster is heroin and it's will will be done
unless, like yourself, you happen to be a lucky one
