Ed Sheeran- A Team

Drug Abuse:

Drug Abuse is the consumption of a drug and becoming addicted. Millions of people all over the world are either living with drug abuse or or are affected by it.

Drug Abuse is a very serious condition. It has many side effects including nausea, paranoia, depression, violent behavior, psychosis and in many situations death.

Class A drugs are the worse class of drugs which include heroin, cocaine ecstasy and LSD all of which are very addicting and life threatening.

Drug abuse kills more people a year then alcohol abuse.

Songs which highlights drug

abuse:The song I chose that highlights drug abuse is Ed Sheeran A Team. I chose this son because the sorry of the song is a young girl who is homeless and is a prostitute to help fund her drug addiction. She is addicted to crack cocaine a class a drug and in the song Ed says she's “In the Class A team” to associated it with the drug she's on but to cover it up abit as it’s a dark topic. In the song he describes how she pays for her drugs and sells her body. She traded her dirty money for drugs, referencing the lyric “And in a pipe she flies to the motherland.”
