The anger
The Hood
Family dysfunction
As a conjunction
It can really be
Something

Putting up with
Ignorance
Being led the
Wrong way
Then they judge
When you stray


In project high risers
The object is to
Make it out
But where to go
From there
Is the big doubt

Have you ever?
Wanted to assault
Your Mother or Father
But you know
It won’t help your cause
So you don’t even bother

Life is rough
Growing up with
Dealers and addicts
When you’re young
They are cool
It makes you want to
Have it
Rolling the Dice
On life
Always in a panic
Cops following you
Causing emotional
Damage

I was scared and lonely
Thinking nobody cared
Or owned me
I’M ME
I’M FREE
So LET ME BE
I’M GROWN
I’M ALONE
IN THE ZONE
I’M IT
I’M THE SH*T

Meanwhile
All People
Care about are
Muscles… Six packs

Meanwhile
Drunk drivers
Overdoses
AA meetings
Caused by
Liquor… Six packs

Someone tell me
How can we fix that?
