Jack 78
You know the difference of right and wrong
You know deep down, in that world you don’t belong
You really need to open your eyes
Coz where you’re heading ain’t no surprise
To the dizzy heights you have risen
Where the outcome is usually death or prison
Let me whisper to you sis and bro
Coz there’s something you should know
If in the firing line and someone’s taking aim
You should know, from where the bullets came
Look around you and start to realise
Some who call you friend are telling lies
Don’t let those influences corrupt
Their voices negative and so abrupt
You can see what you want to see
You can be what you want to be
You’re at a crossroads with a lot to lose
So it’s time to decide which life to choose
