Poem
You careless, reckless, inconsiderate person You show no regard for human life, for another life, for even your life. What’s going on in your mind, peace is hard to find Out in a club for ladies’ night You hear a loud noise, something just ain’t right This fool shooting his gun so loud Just shooting random shots in the crowd Now bodies in the morgue, dead in a corpse You sit silent in jail feeling no remorse None of this ssh… had to be But yo dumb a.. went on a shooting spree People out partying and just having fun Their life suddenly over because of you and a gun There was so much more they had to give They wanted to tell the story They too wanted to live And it definitely isn’t cool to be shooting up in the schools But you did it anyway, now their life is at an end All because you mad no one wanted to be your friend Young lives lost with so much to give They wanted to tell the story They too wanted to live Sleep deprivation, then don’t get behind the wheel Dozed off and caused a crash, two people just got killed You’re in the hospital, yeah you’ll be ok But those people didn’t make it home at the end of the day This didn’t have to be, so unfair to the world A family lost a mother and her precious little girl Their life was cut short and they still had much to give They wanted to tell the story They too wanted to live Get you some rest before you drive So everyone can get safely to where they want to arrive Texting while driving is something you often do So what you’re saying is that you don’t even care about you And what if something happened to you Now your family is affected too Put that damn phone down, texting can wait It’s better to be safe than sorry than to be dead by 8 And let’s talk about you, why do you drive and drink? Is that something cool to do, is that what you really think? You poppin’ bottles having fun Can’t even count backwards from 10 to 1 I have a family, I have children, I have friends who love me so Call an Uber or a Lyft to take you where you need to go Man what’s up with yo homey, you see what’s going on Don’t let him get behind the wheel, take him safely to his home I have so much left that I wanna give I wanna live and tell the story, I too want to live This is to bring awareness to the many lives lost due to senseless actions of others carelessness and irrational behavior. Be responsible in your choices, choose to live and let others live. Our story is for God’s glory, let us all live to tell the story. Thank You!
