I'm like a news reporter where i report at least 1 dead person in a body bag each day
a child cursing at the age of 4
two young kids fondling at the age of 5
a boy being recruited by a gang at the age of 9
I'm from the town where a girl is losing her virginity at 11
I'm at that place where a boy is a father at the age of 13
i'm at the spot where families are forming by the time they reach 15
women with 2 kids are already on welfare at the age of 18
a child at the age of 3, along with a family of mom and dad are homeless at the age of 20
expectancy is so low that people are writing their wills before the age of 21
if we make it past 35, it's a milestone for a latino and black brother
yet, we still to watch out for goons plotting around the corner and they are 30
where I'm from is seeing 2 cars crash at an intersection in which 1 pulls out his piece and fires off rounds faster than Humphrey Bogart in the Oklahoma kid
it's no wonder why that 1 is going to do a bid
I'm at that part of town where 2 females fight over this 1 guy and yet, he has moved on to the next chick
relationship that lasts 1 year is equivalent to 25th year anniversary to old couples
we have that power to change those ugly statistics like 8 turnovers in a game of football
sadly, we choose not to change so life in many eyes works in clockwork
