[Intro]
Life is part of living
And living is part of life
No one has to die this way
And miss both living and life
[Verse 1]
Crack, can make Dirty Harry look like a creampuff
Make you walk up to Hulk and say "You're not tough"
Ask what it will do to Mr. T
It'll snatch all his gold and his money
Able to bring the city to its knees
And to the law (Pssh), it just said please
Young girls can't stay off their backs
Just for a vial of crack-a-lack-a-lack
It's more powerful than a speeding bullet
Superman tried to stop it but he couldn't do it
And in the newspapers almost every day
Somebody took another life, it's a disgrace
[Chorus]
'Cause we're here to tell you that
You might not make it back
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Mеssing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
Say no, no, no
To thе crack, say no
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
[Verse 2]
You know your friends turned you on and now you're turned out
You know crack-a-lack-a-lack will make you shout
You'll be selling your home and even your pride
(For what?) Just for a five-second high
It happened late one night, your friend passed you the pipe
It seems like yesterday, but time it slipped away
[Chorus]
'Cause we're here to tell you that
You might not make it back
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
[Alternate Chorus]
It's taking over, it's a shame
And there's no one else but yourself to blame
'Cause it's really very wack
You might not make it back
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Say no, no, no
To the crack, you can say no
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
[Verse 3]
You know the five-second high just ain't no joke
It's the purest form of the grade-A coke
It'll burst your lungs and eat your brains
Until just a vegetable remains
You see, victims walk around in suspended animation
Living in their own world of fantasia
Males and females both turn tricks
And then turn around and get a glass fix
And brothers will stab each other in the back
Just for a quarter-gram of crack-a-lack-a-lack
Well, that's the cold hard facts can't be ignored
Check it out, homeboy, don't you be lured
[Chorus]
'Cause we're here to tell you that
You might not make it back
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Say no, no, no
To the crack, you can say no
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
[Verse 4]
You go, first base, second base, third base, home
It'll drive you so mad to make your mouth foam
Not only your money but you'll spend your soul
Cold-blooded crack will have you under control
Once you start the beginning of the end
You take along a glass pipe for your best friend
On this journey you're only mission
Is to build up the rocks 'til it's an expedition
On the road that you have chosen, few have made it back
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
'Cause it runs through your veins then it hit your brains
You know the stress and the strain can drive you insane
It's a real shame how you waste your life
They're all gone are your house, kids, car and wife
In conclusion we'd like to say this:
Upon a glass pipe you should not kiss
And let me tell you something else about the cloud you're chasing
[?] destruction if you're freebasing
See, many have died, others had to hide
And the power of the pipe must be denied
[Chorus]
'Cause it ain't no joke
And you might not make it back
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Say no, no, no
To the crack, you can say no
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
[Alternate Chorus]
It's taking over, it's a shame
And there's no one else but yourself to blame
'Cause it's really very wack
You might not make it back
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Messing with that stuff they call cocaine crack
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
Say no, no, no
To the crack, say no
