My best friend is what no person or animal can claim
An activity that stopped my death 20 years ago
It kept me alive, withstanding the ending blow
And helped me survive my addictions flame
Trading the addiction for something great
It gave me the power to change others lives
Through it I have helped lower many knives
It saved me to save others from my dodged fate
Music is my best friend, without it I wouldn't be here
Listening to it, making it, speaking through song
It has never turned it's back or steered me wrong
Powered by using it to drown out the world's fear.
