ICE

Tell a story 'bout crystal meth
I never tried it, that's true
I grew up around it, we called it ICE
While others called it Batu, not 1 bot 2

All day, all night knocking at your window
What you need, what you got
Fresh shoplifted!
8 ball 8 ball, buy a paper please
What you got no money?
Pay me, or you gonna bleed
Spaced out shaking sitting on a brick wall
If you gonna smoke ICE, get ready for your downfall
Cause at first it takes a little
But eventually it takes it all

ICE! Don't be smokin' ICE!  (Chorus)

All I know! is that it put my moms life to the test
All I know! is it will take until there's nothing left
All I know! is that it brings a lot of people death
All I know, is you was alive until you started fuckin' with

ICE! Don't be smokin' ICE!  (Chorus)

So what so what so what? So what you smokin' now?
I'm only down with Tetrahydrocannabinol
You be like Jesse, Breaking Bad smokin' crystal balls
I see your future, and it's sad if you can't get off

This is the police, better open the door
Put your hands behind your back, face down on the floor
Zip tied my wrists while moms was in the back
Flushing ICE down the toilet, man you know where it's at
Not the life I wanted, but it's the life I lived
Didn't ever want to try it, cause I saw what it did
Glad my mom is still around, cause she made her escape
You hang with meth for too long, then you and death got a date

ICE

Author's Note
My senior year in high school I lived with my Mom.  She was the main drug dealer of Ice (crystal meth) in the neighborhood.  Most of this song is true, and the last verse is all true taking place in February 1998.  This is a rap/hip hop song
