Change

As I hold back tears confronting fear I wonder if people ponder, The image of those who plunder the innocent old and younger, Cities becoming jungles I'm watching as morals crumble, Fentanyl causing slumber this winter was hot as summer, The babies killing eachother heartbroken so many mothers, Fathers should be the light to guide these younger brothers, And baby your body precious please listen and understand, You're more than a only fan to hundreds of lonely men, Poverty got us risking the honor of being gifted, And I ain't saying Im different or better I'm only driven, To change my self first cause life in this hell hurts, And maybe you'll change you if I change first.

This is incredible, Junior! It's wonderfully written, insightful, and inspiring with a very plainspoken and candid reflection of truth. I wonder if you're an artist. It flows like a song lyric. Well done, sir.
