Drugs

A substance that acts on the nervous system that causes addition through stimulation
This is a drug by definition
Whether it’s legal or illegal is up to the laws
Which are created by man and it’s possible to their own flaws
I don’t think ill ever understand the system
And how it really affects each and every victim

Marijuana is an illegal drug
So we can sweep that under the rug
Cocaine is also on the list
And probably wouldn’t go unnoticed
Alcohol is legal everywhere on the streets
And so many people after a few drinks get into the driving seats
Tired and carelessly under the influence of alcohol
And to this very day I’m still appall

For a substance that acts on the nervous system which takes so many lives
Leaving behind children, husbands, and wives
And we can’t seem to realize the main cons
Alcohol is much worse than a lot of the illegal ones
And the system that I’d never understand gives it life
When we really need to cut down on it like a knife

But it provides a form of entertainment
A sense of fulfillment
It’s another job on the streets
But the fact remains it can kill
And take away John, Jackie, Michelle and even Will
So when you talk about prohibiting
Think about who you might want to see still living
