Change one Thing

February 6, 2014

Bang Bang 

3 o clock in the morning gunshots going off 

Doesnt keep me up Im numb to it

Bang Bang 

I close my eyes and go back to sleep 

Wake up, and turn on the news

Another person dead in my community

The Black Community 

If I could change anything I would stop the violence

The Black on Black violence

I would make my people come together instead of hurting one another

Build eachother up 

Help one another 

What a life that would be
