Real life situations Let's go True Story He had rough life, standing 6yrs old His daddy shipped back to that Caribbean home Deportation complicated situation Moms on drugs Running from her inner Satan Yeah, it be's like that Abandoned house two children Mom strung on crack While she's out He keeps his little sister Searching through the cupboard Wondering what scraps to fix her He only seven Working the stove 'Cuz his mom prostituting In and out home One night a man gets O-C Slamming him down As he tried to help his mommy Damn Next day he goes to school But when he in there He breaking every single rule Stranded in a room Wit' nothing to eat He takes him and his sister And then hits the streets Skin mahogany She stood eighty-seven Turned to me and said every day is a blessing The sweetest joy ever present in this elder Stood a few feet from me but I still felt her What's kept her from being pessimistic? Love overflowing I could see it in her spirit Skin smooth Wrinkles barely showin' Peaceful soul from within She was glowin' Reminiscent of my grandma who passed And in the end only memories we have No matter good or bad they become our story I can see her now Giving God glory What lies before me? I don't really know So I spread wings And never lose hope Wise words I wrote That came from within And so I bare it all With the end of a pen Scorched earth Sun beating down Desert each direction An old small town No one is around 'Cuz everyone left When they heard war planes Bombing them to death Looking for a few A needle in a haystack Remote controlled drones Designed to split ya' wig back Yeah Death and destruction Kill or be killed War's only function Will it ever heal? The pain and the misery While political parties Show no empathy And no sympathy What are we doing? Dying over dollars Peace lying in the ruin In the end What can be done? Pain will surely end when we see we're all one Perception is reality We are what we believe When we're at war Love's the first casualty Yeah Life is what you make it Yes this is true But tell me what happens When life tries to make you
