Poem
I been a slave of this world so I know what it's like trying to survive in the hood slinging white on white I been in bad situations literally staring at danger from home invasions to robberies totting four fifth bangers It ain't hard to see how things have changed we living in our last days and on these streets niggas ain't playing I ain't seeking to be rich or have all kinds of women cause I'm a leave the way I came out probably wit some bruises & stitches It seems to me in this world I was all alone so I was in a lot of places where the gangsta's roam my mother always asked me why I was so mad but ma, what's the future of a young black child without his dad ain't it sad I was going threw places trying to be accepted I was looking for love so my heart got helpless Naw I ain't looking for sympathy I just want y'all to feel my pain I remember the day I got saved I knew my life would never be the same I put the clutch on my life to put things in cruise control but ever since my father passed I seen a lot of family drama unfold people asking how many copies I sold like I'm looking for recognition I'm just thankful for the people who opened their ears & listened I'm on a new mission trying to get my fam in heaven telling them what God told me bout curses & blessings this is the "Depths Of A Lost Soul" I chose to take this road It was too hot in the streets so I guess a lot of hearts turned cold.
