The Hood Die Young

The hood die young.. Written May 2008 When two young men from my city, Montreal got their lives taken away within days of eachother& too soon. Gone but never forgotten RIP RAMBO & NETSA ! & All the other fallen soilders xo The Hood Die Young I Was Always Told The Good Die Young & It Got Me Thinkin' All The People So Young We Done Lost Was From The Hood Society Claims Were Up To No Good, Puttin' Dirt On Their Names As They Layin' In The Mud BUT I Know They Just Lyin' Because.. The Good Die Young & So Does The Hood,So I Say The Hood Die Young Instead Doin' Anything To Break Bread, As We Know That Ain't The Reason They All Dead. God Had A Better Plan For Them Instead Our Challenge Is To Hold Our Head, As High As We Can! Remember We'll Meet Again At The Promise Land .. No Matter What We'll Be Sad! BUT Smile In Thier Memory Eventhough You Feel Like Life Ain't How It Supposed To Be, Breakin' Down Like This,However One Day You'll See The Pain In Your Heart Set Free & God Specifically Choose Them For The Reason There's A Time And Place For Everything And Their Time Was Done Hoods Are Cryin' 'Cause Hoods Are Dyin' Just Keep Your Head Up & Keep Prayin' Respect The Hood,Keep Showin' Loving 'Cause As You Know;The Hood Dies Young Regardless Where You Come From Stay True To You & Live Life How You Want To 'Cause That's How We Remember You. Written By Yours Truly; S.C Babyy ? REST IN PEACE TO ALL FALLEN SOLDIERS?
