Rough Life

Rough life Is hard out there Out there where Lives are so sow Where children run Around naked Rolling motorcycle tires Playing together As they fall and run On the grey white hot sands Is hard out there Out there Where most of this kid Are of single parent Mostly single mothers Where are the men ???????? Abroad In Jail Dead An addict Worsth of all busy boss Also This is part of our polictical Fake promises of Change Rough life Is hard out there Out there on the streets Where poverty is never A stranger with alot of It ugly colours As It colours the ghetto With the scars of the Out come of our greedy Politician in africa Is clear so clear We are not new to the world In the third world any more To live below human Is not a story any more How our hopes are always cut Short from our freedom All the time I just wonder if the world Is not tired of same story All the time I wonder if all they see Is right I wonder at Worst What they see Rough life Is hard out there Out there where Fighting for survival Is always a gang war Where crimes are the Nature of every youth To help put food on The family table Even when he is just 12years it didn't matter Oh it hard out there Out there where The innocent people always Pay the price of Corruption Is not new any more The world see this everyday Still Yet we are placed with a classification That indentify devaluation Systematically everywhere !
