When you cut yourself.

People can tell me what they've done. Maybe some things. Maybe none.
But people can't tell me what to do. I will choose the way that's true for me.
Don't want to fall into the trap. Don't want to be somebody's sap.
I'm better than that. I'll go to the mat to prove I can be drug free! Yeah, yeah!

D! I won't do drugs!
A! Won't have An attitude!
R! I will respect myself!
E! I will educate me! x2

Now......

People can tell me what they know. I will listen as I go.
But people can't take my mind away. Only I can have a say in me.
Don't have to follow others' path. Don't have to know their aftermath.
My mind is my own! I'll reap what I've sown! I know I can be drug free! Yeah, yeah!

D! I won't do drugs!
A! Won't have An attitude!
R! I will respect myself!
E! I will educate me! x2

Now.......

Check your attitude at the door...

I'm gonna beat the odds. I won't do drugs. I won't give in
I'm gonna call the shots in my life. And I'm going to win.
Don't push me. Don't press me. Don't call me friend when
All you wanna do is drag me down. It's time for this to end!
Check your attitude at the door! I do not want to score!
I only want to win in this drug war!
