at 1st we were afraid, we were petrified,
we were worried about having drugs & violence in our lives.
but then we spent so many nights thinkin' about what we
learned in DARE...
& we grew strong & we knew how to get along.
Now drugs go back,
to outer space.
we just walked in to say that drugs'll put a sad look
upon your face.
we should have been no way that day,
we should have been drug & violence free,
if we had known for just 1 second that drugs
would try to bother we.
go on drugs go,
walk out the door.
just turn around now,
cause drugs aren't welcome evermore.
weren't drugs the one who tried to hurt us with the lies?
did they think we'd crumble?
did they think we'd lay down and die?
oh no not us - we will survive.
oh, as long as we have DARE around, we know we'll stay alive.
we've got all our lives to live, we've got all our love to give.
we will survive we will survive HEY! HEY!
