Just For Today.........
Goodbye marijauna, cocaine, crack.
I finally got my life on the right track....
I don't need you, and you don't need me,
I feel good about myself. I am free!!
You've been in my life for many years.
You've caused alot of pain and a million tears.
You use to be my lover, My best friend,
But all good things must come to an end!
Its over now between me and you!
I finally found someone new,
I've got God in my life....
And to him I will pray, Please stay with me
Just For today........... written by Tammy Allison

*Dont last long
Inexperienced and new in the game
She thought it would be ok, it would feel the same
She bought some crack
But gave it back.
She didn´t want to be a druger, she´d heard what it could make
But a friend insisted and she bought some coke.
Everyday from then she needed a smoke
She was totally doped and high
She wanted more, wanted to fly
Now she was out on the streetz, doing crime
She would do anything, just for a dime
Her eyes were red and her head was messed up.
Drugs took her life, just as many others
Dont take drugs, it´s just a drive
Instead, keep being alive!

The Wrong Answer
She gives herself needles to find her way
Only she doesn't listen to what other people say
When problems get to hard to control
She takes out her needle and goes for a little stroll
She seperated herself from the world and goes away into her land
She shoots up and her problems slip away as she sinks in the quick sand
She wakes up in a white cloud with people all around
She's kinda in a daze her feet aren't touching the ground
She cries for help only the people around don't hear
She hears her mama say come back to us dear
She screams with fear now only they disappear
Her lips are moving now only her own self can't hear
So slipped away because she thought they didn't hear
And now they'll never know what went wrong because she's not here
She thought that a small problem of a boyfriend and beer
Would go away with a needle but all it got was more fear

Drugs
What are drugs are they that bad?
Do they make you lose everything you once had?
Is it true they make you loose all your teeth?
And they're your only friend when you're out on the streets?
I don't agree with this because it's all shit!
they tell you those thing, you know, the whole "say no to drugs" bit.
I think drugs are good for you in ever way,
Hey look at me, i'm still alive today.
My mom knows I smoke but she doesn't care.
She doesn't even bother,
cause when she tells me to stop it goes in one ear and out the other.
I smoke my heart out every day,
Knowing that I will die someday.
But I do it for a reason,
and that reason is to die.
Because I want to go meet my friend judy up in the sky.
She will be there to open up the gates,
and we will walk hand in hand, and no one will determine our fate.
We'll be together again, just like before,
only this time, we'll have wings to soar.
Up into the heavenly skies we will fly,
without having to do drugs and get high.
So Judy wait for me by the gates,
for soon I will come,
And we will walk through the heavens above,
hand in hand, one by one.

*no name
when you hear yourself say
"just one more" you´ll someday pay
cause now you´ve lost it, you better pray
when it´s always in sight, and you think it´s right
you better stop getting high
and give your life another try
if you continue on, you´ll end up like i
but i was lucky, i didn´t die
so now i tell you, stop this right away
because if you dont, your life will have to pay.

*promises unkept
I say to myself "i´ll never take any drugs"
but the more i think of it, i wonder why
Why cant i take drugs, why cant i get high ?
well i know i know the answer " i dont wanna die!"
But i know many people taking crack and coke
the only diffrence is, i only smoke
I know it´s wrong, but i still think it´s okay
i dont know why, i just cant say

My Life
I grew up as a sweet girl,
Sorrowless and sweet.
I was always cute,
Cuddly and neat.
But since the day,
My daddy went away...
My life has changed
In a really big way.
I started taking drugs,
And started smoking too.
I met new friends and all,
I even joined a crew.
My mommy got real worried,
And kept her eye on me.
Cause she always wanted me to be the same...
Young, innocent, and sweet.
I go to late night parties,
And run away from home.
I fell sorry for my mom,
Cause she's left all alone.
She's gotta accept me for who i am,
And what I wanna be.
I always ask myself......
What does she really want me to be?
So live each day to the fullest,
And be what you wanna be.
Remember you don't have much time....
So reveal your true identity.
Don't follow in my footsteps,
Or even look up to me.
Cause I am still not the person
My mother wanted me to be.

*it´s just not worth it
Why are there people who actually want to take drugs?
They just have to go to a dealer and say
i want some crack and then pay.
Everyone knows someone who´s taking drugs
It´s not like their brave
Their just building their own grave
Everytime you take it, it stays with you for days
And you dont know, that it ever face
That your a victim, your flying high
To high too see, that your going to die.
//Lisa

*One i know
There´s this girl i know, she´s on crack
I thought i had her, but i never got her back.
She started all this stuff,
Now she looks really rough.
Her head is all messed up
She´s really up
But d´you think she care? It´s not fair
She´s just wondering if she will hit it tonight
Instead of being with me, she´ll finns something to fight
Why fight, when se can choose
Because girl, your gonna loose.

SHE WAS MY PERFECT LITTLE GIRL 
She was a perfect little girl,
Blue eyes, blond hair.
Clever and ever so bright.
I didnt think shed ever go there.
Shed come home red-eyed,
Nothing to eat, straight to bed.
This went on for a while,
Until something had to be said.
After confronting my little girl,
Asking if she was in strife.
She started shouting and screaming,
Telling me to stay out of her life.
She was mixing with the wrong crowd,
So I thought Id check her room.
As I suspected, I found drugs there.
All I could see was doom.
I talked everything threw
But she made no sense,
Her habit was worse by now,
She became paranoid and tense.
I took her to the doctors,
But there was nothing I could do.
Because as soon as we were home,
She was back with you knowing who.
At night I could hear her crying,
I decided enough was enough,
When my possessions started going missing,
It was time I got tough.
I rang the police, but they were no help,
So I stopped her from seeing that creep.
She started getting all-violent with me,
Until her company I could no longer keep.
She ran away with her boyfriend,
I heard that today shes dead.
I really miss her terribly,
Drugs make me see red.
I wish there were something I could do.
Something I could say.
Watch over your child closely
Or life youll have to pay.

"My first one, i got to heaven
I bought one, while me friend bought seven
It was a hit i never had before.
I wanted one more, i was sure.
My second one was a killer
I found my-self in space, and i digged it.
My friend was high all the time
She took trips to every place she wanted to go to, losing her mind.
My third one i took with my friend
It was a slow one in the end.
We asked the dealer for more, he said he had something strong
Who would of thougt it would go so wrong.
He gave my friend some crack, i stayed with coke
My friend went with this guy, two days later no sign, no friend back
I couldn´t stay long at the funeral, i had something to stash.
My fifth one stayed inside me for days
I was rocking untill it faced
.
I ended up at rehab with four other kids
They talked about gettin out to get clean
I talked about getting out to make some deals.
My last one was by doing some crack
I got to heaven, yeah, but i never got back."

MISS ERICA RUPP
DEAR MISS ERICA RUPP, MY MISS ERICA RUPP,
YOUR CORDIAL WAYS ARE INTERMINABLE.
THOUGH, MISCHANCE STRIKES YOU IN AN INSTANT.
YOUR LIFE OF DEVOTION TO PURITY IS DRASTICALLY TRANSFORMED INTO A
STATE OF INEFFECTUAL.
THUS DEGENERATING MY LIFE TO BECOME INANIMATE.
FOR YOU, MY COLLABORATOR IN BEING COMPLETELY NEUTRAL, HELD MY
PRIDE, MY WILL, AND MY LIFE IN YOUR HANDS.
AND YET U FALTER, DROPPING ME INTO A PIT OF CONSTERNATION, MAKING
MY LIFE RAPIDLY SEDATE...
ALWAYS THINKING, ALWAYS WISHING, ALWAYS REVEBERANTING THAT I
COULD HAVE STOPPED YOU STRIKES ME WITH GUILTY BRANDS.
BUT I STILL LAVISH YOU MISS ERICA RUPP,
I JUST PRODUCE PERNICIOUS THOUGHTS APON MY OWN LIFE
FULL OF LAMENTATION, I THINK OF WHEN, AND HOW, AND WHERE MY
ACTIVE LIFE WILL HULT.
I CRY FOR HELP, HOPING AND WISHING SOMEONE WILL LISTEN AND SET ME
FREE FROM THIS PAIN,
HOPING THAT MY UNTRAPPED SOUL WILL NOT LEAVE ME BY MY OWN
VICIOUS ATTACK...
SO ERICA PLEASE, REPRISE YOUR IMPULSIVE ACTS, AND RETURN TO OUR
PROTOCAL...
FOR I RANCOR THE DRUG ABUSERS BUT I CANNOT FEEL HOSTILITY
TOWARDS THE ONE THAT I LOVE NOR CAN THE HOSTILITY BE ACT.
SO DEAR ERICA RUPP, MY MISS ERICA RUPP....DONT HURT US ANY
LONGER...
PLEASE..I BEG YOU...QUIT....

THIS LAD I KNOW
There's this lad I know, well he's on smack.
He started off by taking crack,
But before that, well he smoked draw.
And ever since then he's wanted more.
He started stealing to get the stuff
And because of drugs, he's looking rough.
He hasn't even got a friend.
Will his suffering ever end?
Now he's getting really stressed,
His head is pounding, he's very depressed.
He's been in trouble by the police,
Will his addition ever cease?
Will he ever lead a decent live?
Because he's always in and out of strife.
This is what drugs do to you.
Will you take them?
Do what you want to do!

* why wait a life time
when you can take the white line
when you can fly high
there´s no need to wanna die
when you can live your life for the stars thats shine
the drugs arent telling no lies
so come on and take a line
i know you´ll feel so fine

Heres another Drugs Poem written by Patricia Huerta
THERE WAS A DAY NOT TO FAR IN TIME WHERE DRUGS HAD ME LOOSE ALL MY MIND.
CONTROL AND POWER IS WHAT I BELIEVED I HAD. UNTIL THE DOPE RAN OUT THEN
I FOUND OUT.
THE PEOPLE I LOST THE MONEY NOT TO MENTION THE SELF RESPECT.
SAYING TO MY SELF THAT I WILL COME DOWN, ITS BEEN A YEAR IN A HALF WITH
ALL THE WORK IVE DONE TO STAY STRAIGHT I HAVE A DESEASE THAT HAS NO
CURE, YOU SEE I AM AN ADDICT. SOME OF US ARE BORN WITH AN UNCONTROLLABLE
URGE A BURNING DESIRE FOR AN UNEXPLAINABLE DRIVE, A CHEMICLE IMBALLENCE
THAT CAUSES THIS DRIVE....
