Time For Change!

We were all together, eating dinner and spending time it was great. This hasn't happened since they used to be sober, I wish today never had to be over.
We were smiling, and laughing, joking around..they even seemed in love again.
It was so nice to see them together, smiling so happily enjoying family times. We always used to be that way..til life got bad and the drugs took them away.

I sure do miss those days, I'd give anything for them back.
Now that the hustle is back on they are always fighting or she's always gone.
Tonight though, was so different Dad hung out with us all day long...and mom actually wanted to eat dinner just the five of us.
No hustle,no breaks.
Just like the good ol' days:)

I know that they will stop one day I really don't wanna lose my faith..so I keep hanging on day by day, trying to be strong.
They may be in the wrong, but at least they are still trying to hold the roof down.Usually by this time they are struggling bad just to get by, but thanks to her they aren't living that on edge, at least not near as bad.

She's hustling day and night trying to stay strong to make sure that her family is alright.
Risking her rep and her life..living high as the sky.
I know deep in side she wants to tell the drug goodbye she just cant seem to get away from the addiction, the money, her old normal home life. She was just brought up that way, so were we though and we dont smoke dope. She just hopes to pay the bills on time and have some food in the cabinets for her kids to eat every night.
Her life has got to change. She cant keep going on this way...
I'll help her. No matter what it takes.

I know she still works her ass off and I thank her everyday, but she doesn't know whats coming her way that's why at this point in time I need to help her give up her game. I love her, she's my mommy, best friend, and light to guide my way through life I have to get her strong again. There isn't that much time.
We're growing into adults now and I know that deep inside she doesn't enjoy missing these times she's gonna regret it the most in life.

Tonight showed me, the look in their eyes how bad they truly miss  the good life.
Its time for change. To go back to that life and quit playing their childish games.
