Hood Life Gone Us Astray

it's not at our opt to stay
And
Live this life,
Poverty offered
A land,
We breath trembling
Our bodies,
Hearing gunshots,
Fleeing,
Screaming
Stepped With knife,
Hollering for help,
Honestly it gets us
Filled with worries

Trailed blood indicating
Wrecked,
I see no breathing
Nor trying,
It seem Departed.

Sobbing when she have been 
Forced into it,
Her feminine spoilt by pirates
While she acts delinquently for rescue,
Arching left ensue

A many desired explained 
By entertainments,
Spending on eyes attired
By compliments,
Repined avail filled 
Inferiors astonishments.

Hood life gone us astray,
Good life come approach our way
