In the Hood
Wanna know what's in here?
Look, it's simple as life.
In the hood,
Is like
Starting and
Standing solitary-
Alone there,
Is of no good.
But, if really
You desire
Things, healthy
And more yielding;
Then you
Should start
Seeing strength
In your weaknesses.
And learning to adapt,
If have started;
Be consistent
In your actions.
Then look, and
Rise beyond,
What minds could imagine,
In the hood.
