Music Lyrics

Trust in what you know You know right wrong You don’t need to please anyone else Do what is best for yourself Drugs they will hurt you good thoughts will desert you Don’t let anyone persuade you Take care and be true It’s all over society In the music and tv It’s all over society Hurting everyone we need They make it look so easy Fun and cool and just so pleasing Don’t try to understand The risk of drugs is more than you could ever plan It’s all over society In the music and tv It’s all over society Hurting everyone we need It’s all over society In the music and tv It’s all over society Hurting everyone we need

The Partnership for a Drug-Free New Jersey

History of the Event

Formerly known as New Jersey Shout Down Drugs since 2005, Your Song! Your Voice! Shout Down Drugs New Jersey has been rebranded with a new name that fully encompasses what the competition is all about – challenging teens to create peer-to-peer original music, songs and lyrics in their own original style, whether it be hip-hop, rock, folk or any other genre. Each year the contestants’ songs are featured on ShoutDownDrugs.com. The online voting periods allow the public to listen to and vote for their favorite songs. To date, more than one million votes have been cast since the online voting feature began in 2010. The contest finalists participate in the Annual Prevention Concert during which the first, second and third place winners are chosen by a panel of judges to receive contracts worth $5,000, 3,000 and $2,000 respectively to perform their award-winning songs at events throughout the year.
