I am tired.

I am furious.

And I am amazed at how much ignorance still lives upon this earth.

One day I would like to rise up and change the mindsets of the young adults.

It's a shame parents are burying their children before they die.

It's a shame people are fighting over streets that the government owns.

Most of all it's a shame how many ladies end up pregnant more than once before the age of twenty.

I am tired.

I am furious.

And I am amazed at how much ignorance still lives upon this earth.

SO WAKE UP PEOPE AND SMELL THE FRESH AIR AND STOP PROVING YOU'RE JUST ANOTHER STATISTIC!!!

Let's change the fact that brand new Jordan's are more important than education.

Let's change "SWAGG" to CLASS

And OH DID I MENTION

How much I am tired.

How much I am furious.

And how much I am amazed at how much ignorance still lives upon this earth.

Let's make a change and rise above the statistics.
