Started from the days of Adam and Eve,
Still as true today on eternity's eve,
Been here with us since many years of yore,
You know you have done it before,
Thinking it will lessen the consequential sore,
Not knowing it is irresponsibility at its core,
Don't blame it on an absent father,
Resist the temptation to blame a drug high mother,
No excuse for you to be high like a kite on drugs,
Resist the stifling and suffocating pressure from society,
Decide to shape society,
Be a thermostat,
Stay away from the jail cells,
Don't stash your future away behind bars,
Don't blame a brother or a sister,
Refuse to blame another,
Take full responsibility,
Clean up your act,
Get some help,
Make a difference in your life,
Drop the distracting dislocating blame game,
It is the devil's best game,
Don't be his ally,
He is your enemy,
Confront your demons,
Denying them wouldn't make them away,
Your every tomorrow can be brighter,
Your gifts are from God yes,
But it all depends on you,
No one can live your life for you,
Bad things happened - true,
Resisting the distracting outward finger pointing,
Spend the energy on forging a better now and tomorrow.
