- Chorus
- I don't need to get high, some people do and some people die
- The life that I live may not be that long
- But while I'm alive I'll be healthy and strong
- I think it's cruel and inconsiderate
- When people huffin' and they puffin' on a cigarette
- Then blow the smoke in the area that I breathe
- Sometimes they blow it in my face when they talk to me
- I'm not trying to tell you that you need to quit
- But you need to show respect for the one you're with
- And if that's an individual who doesn't smoke
- You need to put the cigarette out before they choke
- You started smoking 'cause you thought that it was cool
- Now you addicted and you don't know what to do
- Yeah you addicted to a drug baby that ain't smart
- Because it collapses your veins damages your heart
- And your lungs are getting blacker than you've ever seem
- That's the effect of tobacco and nicotine
- See what I mean
- I don't need to get high, some people do and some people die
- The life that I live may not be that long, but while I'm alive I'll be healthy and strong
- Ain't no wisdom in that alcohol
- They say, 'Do you want it' and I say, 'Not at all'
- They tell me that I need to take a drink to be cool
- I tell 'em, 'Man, I'm already cool. What's up with you''
- Now is you crazy or is it that you didn't know
- That every time you drink the alcohol you loose control
- Become abusive to all the people that you love
- After your buzz, can't remember what you thinking of
- Oh yeah that drug ruins people and their families
- They want it to happen to me but that's a fantasy
- How can this be' I'm feeling pressure from the left and right
- I'm watching TV and they tell me to drink Bud Light
- Wasn't subliminal I got the message loud and clear
- They want me spending all my money on a can of beer
- They must be crazy trying to trick me like some kind of fool
- They get me laughing at those frogs and iguanas too
- Now is it true that if I drink I'll be the man'
- No, that's a lie, so me I got a different plan
- So understand that my mind sees reality
- Like Mortal Combat can you say 'Fatality'
- Them tactics work on other people they don't work on me
- Being drug free is the way that I want to be
- Say it with me
- I don't need to get high some people do and some people die
- The life that I live may not be that long, but while I'm alive I'll be healthy and strong
- I don't smoke, I don't drink, I don't need
- To get high, I don't mess with the weed
- And my heart bleeds when I see my people on their knees
- Beggin' like they got an incurable disease
- Addictions start with a sip of a drink, one puff of a smoke
- So the people need to think
- And I do, so do you and your crew
- When they push drugs on you what you gonna do' SAY
- I don't need to get high, some people do and some people die
- The life that I live may not be that long, but while I'm alive I'll be healthy and strong
