I used to know this girl,
She is the sister of my friend Lana,
Bushy but pretty outta this world,
But my friends couldn't see why I didn't want to marry Wanna,

You see, I used to run life's marathon,
I could fly from here to Ghana,
I wanted to stay fit and strong,
So that's why I stayed away from my friend Wanna,

She said it's not too quick,
And I said it's too long,
While she said I needed the fix,
And she insisted she would help as we get along,

Let us, she said, forget about reality,
While we get high in the heat of the night,
I had to decline to be part of this tragedy,
So I packed her things and put her on a flight!

To marry Wanna,
Would be like committing crime,
As I would always have to be hiding her,
Because if I am caught I would have to do time,

Her mom said yes,
My mom said no,
I had to destroy or de-stress,
Before this dreadful romance grow,

I prayed that someone would confiscate her,
And burn this bane before she festers fast,
Oh I wish someone else would take and grow her,
Before she is shipped for export first class,

Wicked Wanna will destroy you,
Leave you penniless without a dime,
She will strip you and convict you,
To meet your maker before your time,

Why wait when you have the hour,
To declare your stance with this so-called friend,
So your chances in life will not be devoured,
To live your life to your desired end,

There will be others that will come along,
To greet and prevent,
At their heart's content,
But the thrill of your victory will be the sweet music to your song

Better to be warned,
Better to be freed,
It is much easy than be harmed,
By the careless lifestyle of this poisonous seed,

Wanna brings riches,
Unfortunate delight most of stories untold,
A classical tale of countless bitches,
Trading guns and bullets as their lives unfold,

Therefore I refused to marry poor Wanna,
Wanna know what else made me turned down that act?
Because Lana who is her dear sister,
Loved me too and that was a fact,

No matter the gold that glitters,
Here is a lesson that we should take heed,
Life is good when it's not in the slummer,
When you choose life instead of this bad weed!
