The Hood
What makes me feel good
is knowing I have survied another day in the hood;
I could be commiting a crime
but instead i'm spending my time, making a rhyme
so that I can invest in my life,
so there never comes a day where I would have to use a knife.
I use rhymes as an excape from reality
and I use this to keep my sanity
and with this I know I can walk a mile
with a vast smile.
