Man Down
Our world today is a bitter place to be,
People getting shot up, just for walking down the street.
Officers see a different color, and resolve to beat
Not realizing their victims have families at home to feed
Children crying, Brothers dying
Our world gives no hope to keep
People lying, break out of riots
Still no justice, and no peace.
What kind of world are we living in?
See a person that's different, and resolve in killing them
Innocent little girl outside on the playground
2 cops take a drive by, and shoot her down.
MAN DOWN, MAN DOWN, MAN DOWN
Isis running around, terrorizing, creating crisis
Buildings getting bombed up, and shot up in different towns
MAN DOWN, MAN DOWN, MAN DOWN
All these hateful thoughts and memories,
Surrounding me, Choking me, Feels like I can't breathe.
But the only thing that helps me get through it, to cope and have hope with it
Is God, My Faith, and My Poetry
