Stepping Down Days, like a burden on your soul Going crazy just to think you’re losing it You hardly try to stay clean but it’s in your veins Smoking marihuana, imagining your hope, imagining disgrace Caprices attack you; a volcano of wrong feelings irrupts Want a needle, can hear future’s snaps However, she cries, he owes Whatever, life comes in a small dose Nights, like a heavy metal band, noises he couldn’t see or foresee Thinking, maybe his mom will make a healing tea Knowing, things will never be the same Fearing, he’s the one and only to blame A gun shooting, glasses made of pure innocent Shattered by the gang, the cops don’t know which way they went In a few moments the all will be arrested Give me a good reason why they shouldn’t be neglected Mornings, like a soft cool beginning As the hours passing by, you are in the street, selling Caprices have changed you my little boy How did they trap you in this ridiculous swampy decoy? Drugs, they say they don’t work but they do Slums, they say they are white fields but it’s not true Hearts are beating fast, lungs don’t function as they used to But once I really felt it, I could hear it with my decisive ears The watery flow of zephyr’s silent tears |

I felt an incredible sadness in this, a scenario unfolding that is nearly beyond your control. Yes, drugs do work...and are so powerful all the powers of the healers, the family, and even the feds seem weak by comparison. The streets are a cesspool. Hearthugs to anyone who must deal with the effects of the world of drugs. |
