Saftey


My life is in danger!!!

There is no comfort,

I can preach to you out loud,

But that doesnt me I can

Keep myself safe

Not in this place

Not in my space

CAN I GET A AMEN

*AMEN*

CAN I GET A LORD HELP ME NOW
*HELP ME NOW*
My safety is in danger

Because

Life is not fair

Those shooters didn’t care

They are neighbors in my hood

But there is no one in my neighbor hood

They have no rights,

To my time

BUT THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO KILL ME

That is not fare and square

For what I believe in

This is not real to me

There are no possibilities

I guess this is all a dream.

It is never going to happen,

The dreaming in this life

Can corrupt every single wife.

People are using each other to hurt themselves,

No is there to help.

Abuse, rape, there is nothing to negotiate

It has happened and it keeps happening

No one can stop it ,

You can only keep yourself in solitaire.

Stop, Stop, just STOP the joking

It isn’t funny

Why do you keep laughing

To hide what is really happening.

To make sure no one can see you cry.

Tell me just tell me why.

Tell me what I can do to help

I might not really do it

But I will pretend I care.

We are safe nowhere.

Just scream ,

Don’t think,

Just be aware

Of the scare

It still isn’t fare

BE CAREFUL

For your safety is endangered.
