2012 Made Life Hard


2012 has been a pretty good year although the year just started.

Except people dying, families crying, and tears running down faces

;big ones like the largest dollar bills getting signed and they changing everything is different now and later it will be worst then before.

Girls crying claiming that they circles getting smaller cause people getting faker, boys losing homies like Lebron losing to the Lakers seems impossible.

To every girl n****s aint shift next letter capital March 9, 2012 I lost somebody dear to me.

I search for answers but nothig seems clear to me.

The world is full of excuses, to every guy girls are benches at local parks all say RIP or free my main reason why this generation is sick to me.

Yeah a couple people see the world differently til a gun is pointed at your head and you're told empty all your pockets please, be careful when you're out and watch your back at all times.

I know ill be good cause the man above got mine, a word you are taught from when you are just a little baby, please dont leave me i am pregnant with your child, now i cant even graduate wanted to make my mama proud.

Life is rough growing up in 2012, warms days in the winter spring feeling like hell yeah im ready for the summer but you calling all the shots, this just in young girl got kidnapped in Farmington Hills believe it or not, crime is not only in Detroit like they try to make it seem.

Like Dr. Martin Luther King I wish this was a dream.

Life aint easy being a 2012 teen.
