Black Hood
War in the streets,
Pavement, paved with black blood,
Black hood, black hoodies, black streets.
Sirens, silenced, modern civil war, no law, introduction of black balance.
Eight, eighteen
Makes no difference with an 18.
40 oz. 48 hours, 24 might be the last seen, walking down the black streets.
Black faces, hidden behind black masks.
Die or die. Predestined failure.
Generational failure.
Cyclic shame, recycled,
shots taken in vain.
Gun powder, hideout, shooting up,
powder in veins.
Nothing like the black hood
Pavements, paved with black blood.
Road to hoodrich, an excuse for black floods.
