Somethings Got 2 Give

I'm not goner stop now
It’s time to write my fight
The drugs I’ve sworn to hate
The dealers why I write

You see I fear no thug
Or the threat to see me dead
Come then shoot me down
Then maybe I’ll be read

For the kids are laid to rest
But the dealers left alone
Still selling pins of death
It’s time the kids was shown

The government are no better
They could teach the truth
But maybe there just happy
To see the drugged up youth

The truth we die for free
While the government just sit back
But Blair would fight this fight
If his kid was hooked on smack

For once, I played my part
With a sword behind my door
And yes I’d cut the crook
Who tried to fuck the score?

Cos that’s the way of life
If you come from round my way
While people shut there doors
But I’ve got shit to say

For the truth might set me free
But now I hold no knife
And something’s got to give
So maybe that’s my life

    too true

    Until there is no money in drugs and government are really prepared to do some real ground work it will reamain dont matter which country you live in or what alternate help is available.Why people use drugs are as varied and am not prepared to go into here. You speak the truth and makes you wonder why then again it is governments and that raises questions brilliant write good luck in the contest thank you for the read.
