Broken child
I see the face of a broken child.
A child who has seen more than his young eyes should.
I see the face of a broken child.
A child who would run away from it all if he could.
I see the face of a broken child.
A child who has been ravished by the likes of you and I.
I see the face of a broken child.
A child with to much pride to cry.
I see the face off a broken child.
a child who fights off anyone who cares.
I see the face of a broken child.
A child who wishes his mother was there.
I see the face of a broken child.
A child who wont let his hardships keep him down.
I see the face of a broken child.
A child who refuses to give up and reveal a frown.

Flatline
I hear the doctor standing over me
screaming I can make it
Got a body full of bullet holes laying here naked
Still I, can't breathe, somethings evil in my IV
Cause every time I breathe, I think they killing me
I'm having nightmares, homicidal fantasies
I wake up strangling, dangling my bed sheets
I call the nurse cause it hurts, to reminisce
How did it come to this? mom is the only
person in my life I'll miss
Somebody help me, tell me where to go from here
Cause even thugs cry, but does God care?
Try to remember, but it hurts
I'm walking through the cemetary talking to the, dirt
I'd rather die like a man, than live like a coward
There's peace in Heaven and it's ours, Black Power
is what we scream as we dream in a paranoid state
And our fate, is a lifetime of hate

alone
I know that feelin when it feel like nobody care
When you goin through your problems it seems like nobody there
I started question myself, If God really care
Sometimes I cut off all the lights in the room and stare
Wonder if he bought me this far To dropp me off here
I know it seems sometimes like Life ain`t fair
They say the only thing you can count on in this world is prayer
I prayed so much I thought that God could'nt hear

always here
im missing your voice even though its some thing i rarely hear
it just brings me so much joy nothing else can compare
i wonder what you're thinking about do you mind to share?
it hurts enough knowing you're heavyhearted its even worse cause im not there
so i feel like i cant help you which i just cant bear
i smile will comes to my face if my poems help you wipe even a single tear
im home now but i can still feel your sorrow in the air
please hit me up before i suffocate, i cant breathe without you i swear
i hope you're thinking 'does he really care? '
the answer is yes and im telling you lici im always here
