There's Better Things To Do In Life Than Drugs Poem by Tatianna Biggs

There’s better things to do than drugs,
Just sitting there taking puffs,
Watching and feeling my life go by,
Drinking Vodka, smoking a pipe,
Lying there waiting for me to pass,
To somewhere that’s volume has no mass,
I don’t want to go there, not just yet,
If I turn around, I’ll make it, I bet,
Let me get involved with my school,
Doing my homework, doing what I got to do,
Pass these classes and getting these A’s,
Is all that matters to me, it eventually pays,
I don’t want to be on these streets, selling drugs illegally,
I want to be helping the society, mentally and physically,
In the long run, see, what I want to be,
Is a doctor, a lawyer, a person of higher authority,
I want to be better, yes it’s me,
I want to be better than the hobos on these streets.
Drug aint the way,
It’s not my way out,
I cant kick, scream, fuss or shout,
Either way all it would do is bring me pain,
They say “bra, you got to smoke to be a part of the game”,
Well, I don’t want to be a part of it, you hear me, I quit,
Alls is him and he means well but this soldier is sent,
To prove to you people that drugs aren’t good,
They damage your lungs and you know they would,
I’m telling you man that aint no good stuff,
Just sitting in that chair, taking them puffs.
