Through the NightI will be here through the night, / Until the moon sinks, seeking rest beneath a cool dark shade, / The life which grows from light, is slumbering tight under a wonderful cover, the flowers have closed, awaiting another day,

TraffickingWe live in a world, that's loaded down with greed. Man will do anything for money, falling to do a good deed. / Man will take a chance, to traffic people across the boarder. They pack them in like sardines, and like a selfish hoarder. / We will never stop allowing drugs, from entering our land. Men thinks that they are cleaver, by planting drugs, within the body of man.
