Drugs

Melissa Rojas 1976 (Tulare)



STOP
Before you try me out, let me tell you all about me
I’m lots of peoples favorite thing to smoke I  make them happy.
Why smoke herb and stay lazy every single day when you can smoke a little of me and feel like nothings in your way.
I’m the devil in disguise and you’ll be mine once you’ve tried me, you’ll love the way I make you feel and you’ll go anywhere to find me.
You’ll rob and steal to have me and you won’t care who you hurt
And then one day you’ll find yourself facedown in the dirt
And even then you’ll feel me you’ll know exactly where to go
and if I’m not there anymore you won’t stop searching till I show
You’ll feel content when your with me no matter where we’re at
as long as you’ve got me with you you’ll be happy and that’s a fact
So before you take that hit or decide to ruin your life let me introduce myself I’m crystal meth but some still call me ICE
Now go ahead and make your choice lets see which path you take just understand there’s only 3 places you will end up it’s either rehab , jail or your wake..

I was a drug addict and I didn’t know how to get out I stayed out in the streets for 17 years and I finally turned myself in to get clean in 2010 I cleaned up my record I cleaned up my act and I am now a license vocational nurse married on my own home and both my vehicles I love the life I live today and I’m so glad that I left that life behind me I’m lucky to be alive but I’m thankful more…
