This Means War
In my city, theres war everywhere. Starting from sticks to the slum.And the sad part is that it recruits everyone even the young. All they say "ima put that choppa ta ya head". The slang of a gun puts it in their mind to actually do it. I dont know whats worst. I thought the society was messed up, but the city of Abbeville is becoming its own monster. This monster live off of the lives of a 14 year old kid with an machine gun in his hand acting like "he bout that life". This gun shit isnt what a real person does. But thats what people like to hear is "blah blah" or "bang bang". Even in the music they make is influencing the minds of the young to pick up an iron as the say. They use the iron just to see someone's mother cry. Its sad cause im not safe nor my little brother. And its even more sad, cause when its all happens right in front my house and next door to a church. Damm what happened to the brother and sister. Its not longer that, its brother against brother, its shooting each other up like a damm shooting range. I cant even walk out my front door without a bullet proof vest to keep me safe. But even with that i am not cause you gotta remember, a bullet has no name.
