[Verse]
Cloudy heads, lost time, dreams fade in the mist,
Hands clutch the poison, while futures twist.
That dragon don’t cuddle, it bites, it stings,
Chains ‘round your ankles, clip your wings.
[Chorus]
Say no, young soul, the light’s your course,
Don’t let the streets pull you off with force.
You’re a star, not a pawn in a bitter game,
Claim your life, let it burn, let it flame.
[Verse 2]
Friends say “hit it,” but who's left when it's done?
Needles in veins, turn days into none.
Tray of pills, table of deceit and lies,
Every pop swipes the color from the skies.
[Bridge]
Mama's tears fall like November rain,
Heart broken, numb from the constant pain.
Got a future chillin', right beyond that door,
Choose love over poison, choose life, explore.
[Verse 3]
Woke up heavy, felt the ground cave in,
But you a phoenix, rise, shed that skin.
No escape in a bag, no peace in the haze,
Your power’s in the work, not in drifting days.
[Chorus]
Say no, young soul, the light’s your course,
Don’t let the streets pull you off with force.
You’re a star, not a pawn in a bitter game,
Claim your life, let it burn, let it flame.
