BY STREET VIOLENCE I lost my cousin

BY STREET VIOLENCE I lost my good friend

Miguel and Neco were the names, something

Must have gone terribly bad, reminisce

Those times you spend with your good family

You never know when it will end fellow

Use mentality it's reality

The next thing is crime scene the tape's yellow

A brutal murder has been convicted

Not knowing that it would be a loved one

You see and hear this and is sickening

You witness this and are amazed it's dumb

"Why did they take you? We miss you so much"

Love your family...One day they'll go up

Careful what you do people are wilding

A worthless war caused BY STREET VIOLENCE.
