The hood will be the death of you. teens trying to be top man on the block but not trying to be to man of the class. See I'm really trying to do good and get an education, but all these gun shots and drugs are disrupting my concentration .  Today's generation feeds off of who's wearing what she's sucking who. But what ever happened to worrying about you? See now we live in a world were Facebook becomes books and texting becomes communication. Nobody's striving for greatness because they got no motivation. So this is why I write, to Make moves into a better life. I'm tired of being in distress, I'm just looking for some success.
