I AM TROY DAVIS


I am the man that killed no one While people protest to free the son Of Martina I pray to God for ya! I am the man that pities you fools Do you think the penalty of death is cool? That judicial system that kills innocents People, today are mad. You didn't give two cents. You postpone a life?! That's nothing to play with Now you've got this new "Hip" Generation mad as hell. These young teens have something to tell. A life, my life, you put on hold. The people of America now know That America doesn't give a damn! Now, I'll tell you who I am. I am no racist! I am the executed, innocent Troy Davis!

I am a young teen from Atlanta, Georgia. I will make something of myself by attending a four year instituion in the fall of 2013. I live everday to the fullest regardless of the downfalls in life. You got to know when to let go and let God.
