Jasper Sembie - 'For Alex' - HIV AIDS STIs Awareness Raising | Spoken Word Poem lyrics

Oh no! That's him laying in the coffin A lifeless entity who, except to worms, is worth nothing Nose stuffed like muffin, soon to be disgusting He will be missed but like every other, he would soon be forgotten He was 'the ladies' man' he never despised Every girl he crossed he nailed! Jeeeesus Christ! Nail-cross-Jesus Christ, his pickup lines were wordplay But being a playboy got him on ice Now d**h has victory, not because Alex was harmless He was harmed with knowledge so he knew he ought to arm-stretch For his wallet where every youth is supposed to keep one But his hands were careless So he held his 'D' and dipped once in bare flesh The feeling was near fresh Yet behold! Life is cold! He was one step near d**h 6 feet clear depth! So he who has ears let him hear and you aren't deaf You see, your money, swag or six packs can't save you There are about 21 STIs so you know you gotta be brave too A friend of mine died last year...you should've seen what AIDS do Now two of his exes are on their way to the grave too So you tell me, would you walk on broken bottles with no shoes? Huh? Well that's what most do Forgetting that most carriers walk around with no clue No symptoms, beautiful handsome, s**y Well in shape, some even hefty Alex was a clever chap a straight-A lefty Behold! God knows I'm gonna miss my bestie But my bestie wasn't cautious. I hope you are And for the sake of your loved ones, I hope you care Beware! Life ain't fair, we need information Unsterilised blades, needles, shared injections Unprotected s** and unchecked blood transfusions Are all common means of viral infection So please, 'C' to it that you 'O'we to yourself a'N'd others 'D'ecide to stay within faithful boarders 'O'bey your thirst but respect thy lover Reme'M'ber to keep your ‘head' under-cover That's C.O.N.D.O.M one of three choices to blend Abstinence and being faithful – three means to an end My sister, please tell him this: 'Being safe is the best way to please me Get checked or check your wallet, even before you kiss me I just want AIDS to miss me'
