How could he do it?

His little girl cried each night begging for her daddy to be alive with her

Her dad he died from an overdose of drugs

Her dad he didn't think

All he wanted was the drugs

And now the sweet little girl is seventeen and she has promised her mother that she would never do drugs like her dad

But she will always love him

I watched a video at school and this guy stopped doing drugs because he wanted to be there for his daughter
