I Wish


i wish for a bunch of stuff,

yo! check out this list and please santa help a brotha out!

i dont want to have to wait, have to sit here and pout,

nobody ever listens to what i gotta say,

so i swear sometimes i gotta jump and fuckin shout!

yo i wish i could be heard,

im tired of being me,

tired of working and feeling alone at 17

but some days are good,

moved up out the hood and im just doing me,

which isnt too bad even if i aint got my dad!

A quiet kid from Chicago who lives in New Mexico. I dream like there's no tomorrow. I'm harsh because I'm sensitive, Nothing is easy, but I've come to learn, The sun still comes up the next day.
