Kilo

This is the story of Joe, he use to be all aglow, loved to put on a show and whatever he did, he did like a pro.

One day he was feeling low said life was moving to slow, he felt he needed to grow and make more dough.

So he tiptoed to the sto came back with a kilo of blow, little did he know, through pure hell he was about to go.

Although he was going solo, he picked up the tempo, scored another kilo of blow, pure snow and hell soon followed.

He felt on top of the world until he met Pearl, such a beautiful girl, she became his world. Much to his suprise she was the Devil in disguise.

Even though she would beg, steal and borrow, he was still all aglow until she brought in her friend, Coco, Hello. And on a downward spiral he started to go.

The man didn't have a prayer as they turned him into his best customer. And turned his life into a movie thiller, full of snakes, wolves, gansters and killer's.

He went from aglow to full of woe. He started pacing the floor because he needed to score. So the girls took him where he could get a play and in rushed the D.E.A.

They put everyone away. But what he didn't know, he'd become the prey they were planning to end his life that day. I guess The Lord do work in Mysterious Ways.

Now all that mess  he let go, good seeds he's starting to sow, instead of the night he see a beautiful rainbow and he's basking in the afterglow.

So if you want it fast but you have to stray off that straight and narrow path, take it from Joe, Don't Go you could fade into the shadow and be no mo.
