Say no to drugs

🎶 Song: “Say No to Drugs, Save Liberia” (Lucky Dube Style)

Intro (spoken, with soft reggae keys & strings):

“My brothers and sisters…

Our future is in danger…

But together, we can save Liberia from drugs.”

---

Verse 1 (melodic & soulful):

I see the children on the corner,

Nowhere to go, nothing to do.

The poison of drugs is taking them under,

But Jah light will carry them through.

---

Chorus (powerful & anthemic):

🎵 Say no to drugs… oh Liberia, rise again.

Say no to drugs… together we break the chain.

From Monrovia to Harper, from Gbarnga to Buchanan shore,

We stand as one people, we won’t take it no more. 🎵

---

Verse 2 (storytelling, with harmonies):

Mama crying for her only son,

He was a victim before life begun.

Papa working hard but can’t understand,

Why his daughter’s future is slipping from his hands.

---

Chorus (backing vocals “yeah yeah” like Lucky Dube):

🎵 Say no to drugs… oh Liberia, rise again.

Say no to drugs… together we break the chain.

From the classroom to the villages, let the children grow,

We stand as one people, and let the message flow. 🎵

---

Bridge (spoken with music drop, like Lucky Dube often did):

“Too many lives destroyed…

Too many futures stolen…

It’s time to rise up, Liberia…

And say no… no more drugs in our land!”

---

Final Chorus (full band, backing vocals soaring):

🎵 Say no to drugs… oh Liberia, rise again.

Say no to drugs… together we break the chain.

From Kakata hills to the Atlantic sea,

We’ll save our children, let Liberia be free! 🎵

Outro (fading, soulful):

Say no… say no… (Liberia rise)

Say no… say no… (Save the children’s lives)
