Hi, I thought about this all night long and here are my suggestions…

Stairway to Heaven by Led Zepplin because if you choose the good, Godly path then step by step and “way leads on to way” they you may end up in Heaven for all your good deeds.

If you do not and you take the path that has been trodden black (from everybody else following it like drug and alcohol use) “everybody does it” well you will be on your way to hell.

It doesn’t have to be the fire-spewing burning pit in Hell but hell on earth that we are talking about because I don’t know how bad your life has gotten but when you live with addiction it IS hell. Jail and hookers and drugs and scoring and coke and pawning stuff and stealing and making bail and pipes and lighters and sex for drugs and AIDS and pregnancy scares… all that IS hell on earth.

Also, there is “A Life of Illusion” by Joe Walsh. Listen to the words… Life’s surprises…. continual crisis… You can say this song represents how “way leads on to way” and how if you continue to make the wrong choices (“I’m gonna marry him/her mom, I LOVE HER! – pregnancy- kids- low-paying job- drugs.) It can lead to continual crisis.

This is all I could come up with after racking my brain all night long. How do I get my 40 pts? Will it come in the mail wrapped in a plain brown wrapper?
