Let the Kids Grow

Let the kids grow
They're kids in the hood that wants to go the negative route.
They're    kids in the hood that think being all good and optimistic is a waste of time.
Please let the kids grow positively.
The responsibility lies in the parent's and the older siblings to the little younger ones.
I cry tearfully when kids die in school.
I die speechless when they end up like their family.
To let the kids grow please leave a better example.
Don't try.
Don't do the best.
Just do the right thing for the kids to grow. 
Every thug is always   lost when they fall dirty in the streets and can't provide **** to their kids.
What if there wasn't no school shooting? 
Will the kids be all   right? 
What if there wasn't  no shooting at the   playground? 
Will the kids be all right? 
What if there wasn't no Juvenile center or a Mental  Institution  ? 
Will the kids be all right? 
What if there wasn't no shooting at the movies or at the corners? 
The bullet  always have a name on it when it points back.
But will the kids be all right? 
Put down the guns for the kids.
Stand for the right thing for the kids.
Every fault of your kids danger lies in you.
Let the kids grow. 
Let them be something.
Let them be a man.
Let them be a woman.
Don't let the past lie in something bad for you to regret later on.
Because deep down in the last minute the past of the years can't be change just to let go and move forward.
The kids are more important than us.
They need love.
They need to be taught.
They don't need to be in danger.
They don't need to be killed.
What if there wasn't a Columbine high school shooting? 
Will some of the kids survived by not being wounded and killed.
What can I say the world isn't nice.
The world is   hypocritical.
The world is   judgmental.
The world is full of killers.
We survive and survive the struggle every day.
We are always surrounded by danger if we are not careful.
Let the kids grow.
Let the kids live.
Let the kids play.
Put down the guns.
Stand for right.
And please make a better expression for your kids.
This goes out to all the kids that feel not blessed enough not feeling the love and to say that don't be like your parent's your siblings who has a criminal record doing wrong be better than that rise up to the higher advance expectation and once you are up there then you can be anything that you want to be if you just put in work.
Let the kids grow please.
