Ghetto Boy
Written By: D. Collins 6/12/20
There's nothing more knowledgeable than a Ghetto Boy.
One who grew up with no education, computer, or toys.
They have seen the bottom of the bottomless pit.
Where a good meal is rummaging through other folks sh _ _.
This can be seen up close, with your own two eyes.
Just count the numbers of how many have died.
Ghetto Boy, I understand, just how you might feel.
I'm here to show you love, and try to make you heal.
At six years old, no one should be scared of police.
But, no one has experienced what you have seen.
Ghetto Boy, this brother has tears in his eyes for you.
He'll put some pieces together to come to the rescue.
