STREET LIFE

(written 2009)

We out here hustling on these streets so we can eat and risk ourselves from going to jail
These times are hell us little people got to eat so do your best not to fall and fail
Time can tell if you can make it
You see the opportunity to feed your family you better take it
They tell us to get a job but we're not able
So we try another way to put some food upon the table
Bless the food that we recieve
Father forgive us cause we're thieves
The system got us in a twist
Becoming sinners to exsist
So tell me why is this
A horrible way of livung
Knowing we are wrong when we be stealing
Still we try to find a way to survive
Can't you see the struggle in our eyes
Never thinking about the other man
Try to focus and understand
We keeping open eyes to visualize our money rise

Street Life
Stuck inside a world of hopes and fears
Street Life
We've been struggling out here for so many years
Street Life
I swear that I'd done cried so many tears
Street Life
Better days will come

Secrets are hidden within the clouds of darkness
there is no reason to give a reason because they think we're heartless
But peep the situation I'm facing
Continue chasing this money to set me free from poverty
And as long as I breath I gaurentee without a moment to rest
I'll have to struggle until my death
With every minute getting rougher
I'm way to young to stress but yet I'm known to suffer
Like every human being I'm seeing the pain
Stuck to this chain but must maintain and not strain my brain
To keep from going insane
I fantisize follow my voice inside and carry on
Trapped in the dark my fragile heart will try to be strong
I'm close to defeat
Confused and weak
From this life in the streets
