Life's Choices
Walking down the hall
Smelling drugs, alcohol and weed
Wondering why life tends to be this way
I know that life's a challenge but that's not an excuse for your actions
Turn the corner
more weed, more drugs and more alcohol
My lungs collapsed in seaing pain
Why do you hurt yourselves this way
Little boy's who are barely grown
Smoke day in and day out
Saying that it is just a phase
Even now the girls do it too
Smoking, hallowering and slowly ruining their lives
Saying life is wicked
but who are you to criticize life
when you don't make it any better
I try not to say anything
but my heart hurts in sinking sand
My nose burns from constant pain
They say drugs a devil but still you befriend the devil
They say it brings nothing but pain but still it's a tempting demon
You can't keep on making excuses
Life would always be a challenge
All you have to do is face it
