I Live
People don't understand my pain
I hear anger is weak over and over again
They just don't know how i live
That i have to give all I can give
If I don't than I shall Die
And not one person will even cry
I live in the bad part of town
Thats the reason I got down
I see it happen everyday
A friend of mine dying, I hate it this way
I fear for my life and my mothers
I must protect her from others
If I lose respect of my friends
That is when my life ends
When someone actually understands me
That is when i might try and listen to what they try and make me see
