She was my Best Friend Since Birth
She was my best friend since birth,
One of the smartest kids I knew.
Just four months ago she was taken from this Earth.
She got trapped with the wrong crew
They got her involved in things that poisoned her
I tried to help but I was too late
My dad woke me up early that morning
To let me know my cousin has fallen
I try not to hate
I try not blame myself
She was just 19 years young.
No words or pictures can describe the pain I feel
To see something so devasting happen.
I just have a few words to those kids out there
Drugs are not cool
Don't be a fool
Don't hurt the ones that love you.
Time will only heal this pain I feel.
She was my best friend since birth,
One of the smartest kids I knew.
