The day I started doing drugs,
something great was halted.
My grades, in school, just went to hell.
The drugs, no doubt, were faulted.
Once I screwed my head back on
and ended my damnation,
I picked it up where I left off,
pursuing education.
It's not too late to go to school.
To make up time you've wasted.
It's not too late to reap the fruits,
'til now, that you've not tasted.
I wish I had the money;
I would go to school full time.
To make up all the time I'd lost,
While in my using crime.
You'll make new friends. You'll seek new dreams.
You'll gain new hope and vision.
You'll finally learn to read and write,
Subtract and do addition.
You'll find your strengths you've wasted,
And become a better man.
Please see that education is
A big part of your plan.
