somewhere in the world


somewhere in the world 

a kid is holding a gun and another holding

a catcher of the ride

one is illegal no not the one that can tear through flesh 

its a book 

somewhere in a America 

a kid is reading the home page of the kkk website

but will never read how to kill a mocking bird

because its banned from their school for containing

th N word 

somewhere in the world 

a girl is getting the perfect prom dress

while in the south a girl in the south is finding a coat cause its about to be winter time 

and that the only damn coat she has

somewhere in the world a person is getting judge because the way they talk ghetto

while they go in there car jammin to im all that and how they there

cause in this world the best lessons you are taught no one remembers
