"Don't Rest Yet"




"Don't Rest Yet"
March 16, 2011

I won’t say what you choose is wrong
Won’t wrap it nice and neat in a song
It’s not my place to decide
If there’s some destructive habit you hide

There’s a life you’re supposed to enjoy
But people forget that the body is not a toy
So college students, this is for you
I bet there’s one person you once knew

But they aren’t standing by your side today
If it was drugs that made their bright skies gray
Taking a life, promise and potential buried beneath ground
Forever laid to rest, never to ever make a sound

I’m not saying that you can’t have fun
But it’s like pointing a loaded gun
Right at your head, playing Russian roulette
Bad things can happen, don’t you forget

Heroin, Ecstacy, special K, and cocaine
Those drugs seem fun, but only dull pain
Curiosity is nothing that should be
Once, not a habit done constantly

How many more have to die
Before those college students try
Not to let temptation prevail
There’s another way, a different path, another trail

So to the addict college student
This information is prudent
I am tired of burying my dead friends
So please, start changing the trends
