This Is Life

by

Angela Darlene Bean

the fight of your life
the pain and the strife
the dead and the gone
defying authority
paying respect and loyalty
harlem world
and the No Limit soldiers
Death Row dudes
and the Wu-Tang Clan
let the violence stop
the rape, and the burglary
mindless thoughts
though from a mindful brain
the voices make me go insane
midlife crisis is now
the bloody massacre goes pow
dude, don't have a cow
you shall revenge your brother's death
prove what you need to prove
die, how you shall die
hazy, it is
quite hazy here
it goes black
all dark and quiet
gangs and chains
the whips and brass knuckles
Sayzar looks up
cuz he's all shook up

don't know where the h_ll he is
or if his families doing well
when your locked up in the pen you don't feel so well
hangin' round all day in a jail cell
i hate this h_ll
livin' life of not givin' a fu_k
defying authority
and disobeyin'
tryin' to get out
havin' to shout
being loud
and heard
gettin' everyone to listen to a word
no one gives a fu_k
cos this life will always su_k
going through school
livin' life in a bloody pool
havin' razor marks
etched up and down yo' arm
not bringin' no one else harm
this life's unfair
so i ain't gonna complain
no more
