I Am Ricardo


I am

The young boy

Growing into a man raised by a single parent

Violence all around but still

I am the same guy

Grown i have indeed

In mind 

Its crazy how events can change you

Getting robbed

Getting Jumped

Things just like that happen

When you live in a enviorment of povery

Still 

I am

the young boy

Just now

Im more aware

That life happens for me

Not to me
