City Living

Bright lights
Hustling bustling 
Going home to my throne
Much trash murderous monsters lives
Living 

Every
Blocks brimming with 
Broken bottles vacant scenes 
cast-aways haunted faces
Living

Empty 
lots that besiege 
The city's gutters filled 
With contaminates linked schemes 
City

Ghetto 
Grocery stores 
Apartment doors slamming 
People talking while walking, smiles
Scheme dreams
