Me.
Day by Day
I build
I build a home
an abode
A community
but
something counfounds me
As we drive through
My grandma only sees negativity
We don't see kids playing
Laughing
We see next victims
We don't see teenagers riding bikes
Living
We see dope dealers
We don't see old friends
United
We see homeless under shady tree
With a forty
And maybe a doobie
Now I'm not saying all we see
Perceive
Is negativity
But my life has not been no nativity
My life has been scenes filled with
Robbery
Homelessness
Poverty
But sometimes we see
When the tree leans up right
When the flowers shine bright
When loved ones don't fight
