I have a fifty dollar bill in my dresser drawer,
O General Grant, why do you do this for?
Chhhh-Ching
1.00 for a blunt wrap
I spend the rest on pot,
And I break it up in my lap.
A court date in August &
A citation for drug paraphernalia,
I shouldn’t smoke, but my friends say,
“will ya?”
Puff, Puff.
I never know when
enough is enough.
I breathe in the smoke and
I cough til I nearly choke.
I remember now when I was younger and I would try.
Now I’m older and the only thing to do is get high.
I had a fifty dollar bill in my dresser drawer,
O General Grant, why did I spend you for?
Author notes
I quit all drugs for a while, well recently after a breakup I started back into everything with my friends and I went to a party and it got raided by the police we all got a drug paraphanelia charge(wasnt mine anyways)...That was last week and I was sitting in my room yesterday and I spent my last $50 on something I shouldnt have.

i think weed is a little overrated. with fifty dollars im talking more half gallon captains and case of cheap beer. keystone light you can get eighteen for eight ninenty nine nukka!
"puff puff
i never know
when enough is enough"
haha that tickled me a bit. reminds me of all my friends. start off with a bowl end up smoking the whole bag before the nights over. and for what? you reach a certain level of high that its like youre immune and the extra puffs are just tar on your lungs. but as long as someones passin im not a fool to say no hahaa
nice write, i enjoyed it.
