Which Choice Will You Take


Many people died of drugs and alcohol, They have no idea to what to think; Parents yelling, and screaming at them, telling them it is wrong but, Before you know it, you will be gone in a blink. Gangs are protecting each corner of their neighborhood, Shooting, fighting, over one’s territory; But before you know it, Their friend is shot, was it worth the glory? Drive by shootings, Happening everyday; Taking a chance on friends, After their dead, what can you say? Was it worth the cause? Losing on another; Picking up the gun, Or was it worth the bother? Every person has troubles, Scared to share, so they hide their feelings and stand up tall, So many people are hurt inside, that They express their feelings by putting graffiti on the wall. One day all this will end, When God comes and shows each child the way; So don’t turn you back because, He loves you and he doesn’t want you to fade away. Every one has that one little dream, But they will have to stand; Will they chose the devil, or Will they take God’s hand?
