GANG VIOLENCE
The school I went to had no after school activities
Never had a dad to play with
He died the month before I was born
He was an OG
I felt as if there wasn’t a future for me
I felt as if i had shoes to fill
Ayye! Ayye! Byron!
You ready young blood
Today was the day that I would be put on
Got jumped by 3 dudes
I was finally a blood now
These guys are my brothers now I stayed on Rosecrans and Atlantic Ave.
OG Kray came rushing through the door
The homie got jumped by some Crips
Byron, we gotta kill whoever did this
Ight blood I’m down
When the sun went down we suited up
We went down MLK Blvd.
Where the dude lived
Hop through the back window of the house
Next thing I know
dudes start shooting
I was hit
As I’m dying all I could think of was my MOM
This was all a mistake
Last thing I saw, was myself in the mirror
On the floor bleeding out
Shame in my mind
Thinking there wasn’t another way out
