The Struggle
Since being a young boy in the hood
My life has never been good
Gunshots at night and standing under streets lights
I told my self I shall rise
If i put in hard work there should be a prize
I never wanted to be a statistic
So I stayed quite and myjestic
And focus on my goal of getting to college
Everybody said Tuition and fees
Brings students to there nees
beggin for hope to get them paid off
I told my self Im going no matter what the cost
Cause i know when get a degree
im going buy my mom a house and im going to stayin loft
goals learn grace and advance
so i hope you read over this to give me a chance
