Streets (Not Finished)

Societal issues not publically approved,

To the knowledge of the youth materialistic rules.

Representing… I’m sorry “yo reppin a block”,

Carry a glock, click clack, fire a shot.

Thug life so you know we vamp all night,

Just subsisting each day is a terrible fight.

A battle each day just to play the game,

Where staying cognizant from demolishing others wins you all the fame.

Grand theft auto just maximize the crime,

Time heals all, but not all the time.

Sometimes the wise make it out sometimes they don’t,

When you live in a city where the death rate supersedes the rate of birth.
