Cocaine (Killed My Community) - Alabama 3

Cocaine killed my community

Heroin hurt my home

When my mama went down on the morphine

I seen my papa get high on the physeptone

And now my sister swings on the psilocybin

My brother broke up on barbiturates

My two little cousins got shot selling rock

But I don’t mind, 'cause I live in the light, yeah

I live in the light of the Lord

The sword the Lord he gave me

Is the sword that’s gonna save me

I live in the light of the Lord

Help me Jesus

All I need is light of the L O R D shining right down on me

'Cause I need it every hour, yeah

Lord I need it every hour

I need it, oh I need it, yeah

Every hour, gracious Lord

I need it every hour

Oh gracious Lord

Oh I need it every hour

I need it every hour

Oh gracious Lord

Oh I need it every hour

I need it every hour

Gracious Lord

Oh I need it every hour

Cocaine killed my community

And heroin hurt my home

My mama went down on the morphine

I seen my papa get high on the physeptone

And now my sister swings on the psilocybin

My brother’s been up on barbiturates

My two little cousins got shot selling rock

Heartbreakin'

Outside the old school gates, yeah

But I don’t mind, 'cause I live in the light, yeah
