If you're from Port Charlotte, you know the story behind this. Around here, almost everyone is into drugs in one way or another. Drugs are all around - they're a way of life - they're a huge part of the Southwest Florida economy. Come to PC, PG or Ft Myers and you'll see for yourself. EVERYONE does drugs - or sells drugs - or recieves checks from Crime Stoppers by callin in people that are involved with drugs. And some of these people have really been hustlin their whole lives. I wasn't trying to find any resolve in writing this song. I was just exploring my own views on it all. We don't live in a ghetto but we feel everyone that does. In a way, we're repressed here as well. There's no options for kids around here except to sell drugs and get paid or get out and stay broke. But most kids are smoking weed by the age of 11 and selling months after -- in most cases, they've made up their mind by the time they get to the point of making that decision. |

This one is more for the people who think PC is a nice communtiy that just happens to have an abnormal amount of hoodlums. You'll never understand us until you grow up here for yourself. We're bored, there's few employment opportunities for the young and untrained, and the drugs have been plentiful and easily accesable in Pt Charlotte since the 1980s. We're just some kids with no hope and a whole lot of dope. What would you do? |
