Hooked Cocaine

Cadence is hooked on cocaine sitting in the streets
Skin and bones and no where to go besides alley to alley
The only firends are the druggies that feed her supply  
Boyfirend as fucked up as she is on a hour by hour routine  
Cadence needs an escape from the drug but she doesn't know where to start
Cocaine and fucking are her only two hobbies  
Not just her boyfirend but anyone who is willing
Cocaine has made poor Cadence this way  
Pregnant and still trying to escape the drug Cadence is on the run
Robbed a drug store for that test that shows two pink lines
She wants what's best for her baby and it's not her
Cadence doesn't know how to be a mother only how to use Cocaine
How can she be something that she never had
Cocaine killed her mother and dad run off when she was only two  
Handcuffs locked around Cadence's wrists and shoved in a cop car
"You street scum." The officer hissed before slamming the door
Looking down to her belly maybe this will be her escape
She could get sober and protect her baby the only way she knows how
Nine months later in a prison hospital Cadence delivers a healthy baby girl
Looking down at her before CPS takes her away
If only I would have been sober I could have been a mother to that little girl
Cadence was hooked on cocaine but now she's stuck behind bars
Doing twenty to life trying to forget that demon cocaine
