MY NAME IS COCAINE

I HOPE THAT THIS POEM WILL HELP YOUNG PEOPLE NOT 
TO DO DRUGS-THIS POEM WAS GIVEN TO MY DAUGHTER
TO HELP HER -I DON'T KNOW WHO WROTE IT, BUT I BELIEVE
IT SHOULD BE SHARE-JUST MAYBE IT CAN STOP SOMEONE
FROM MAKING THE WRONG TURN
MY NAME IS COCAINE
Beware my friend, my name is COCAINE,"COKE' for short
I entered this country without a passport
every since then I've been hunted and sought
by junkies and pushers and plain clothes slicks
mostly by users who need a quick fix
I'm more valued than diamonds, more treasured  than gold
use me just once and you too will be sold
I'll make a school boy forget his books
I'll make a beauty queen neglect her looks
I'll  take a renown speaker and make him a bore
I'll take your mama and make her a whore
I'll make a school teacher forget how to teach
I'll make a preacher, not want to preach
all kinds of people have fallen under my wing
just look around, you can see the results of my sting;
I've got daughters turning on their mothers
I've got sisters robbing their brothers;
I've got husbands pimping their spouse
I'm the king of crime and the prince of destruction
I'll cause the organs of your body to malfunction;
I'll cause your babies to be born hooked
I'll turn the honest of men into crooks;
I'll make you rob, steal and kill
when you're under my power, you have no will
Remember my friend, my name's Big C
some call me the WHITE LADY
I've destroyed actors, politicians and sport heroes
I've decreased bank accounts from millions to zero
I'm a bad habit, to tough for the man
I've caused the law to invest in the batter-ram
Yeah, I'm raising hell all over the earth
Don't believe me just check out Brynhurst;
I've got them standing on the corners yelling "rock"
I've made it where, shootings and stabbings are common
on the block
Well, now you know- what  will YOU do?
Remember my friend, it's all up to you
If you decide to jump in my saddle you better ride me well
For on the white horse of cocaine, I'LL RIDE YOU STRAIGHT TO HELL!
