Letter In the Mail Written By Chino and Morgen

This morning I got a letter in the mail
It's only something my heart could tell
It was from the college of my dreams 
Went inside the living room mom screams
I slowly opened up the envelope 
Nervous could not find the word to spoke
thinking in my head I'm so stoke 
Thinking in my head I finally got accepted
In the college of my dreams 
My mom sit me down for a good breakfast 
I'm cannot stop rubbing my good luck neckalace
So many thoughts running through my head
Thinking about what subject I should go ahead
And sign up for 
I got ready and grabbed the shoes off the floor
Running through to the car and opened the door
Cruising slow down the bright street 
This sun is shining through foreign leaves 
The light of hope is starting to peak 
Yes we cannot stop now heading towards the peek
Man I glad I had a good sleep 
Pops is finally smiling and the feeling was great
Heading to school hoping I'm not late
The past was creeping up from behind 
When she realized that the girl that tried 
To get her into the gang past by
Her great feelings started to slide
Look up into the sky and ask why
Wondering why is this happening to me
Is there something I did wrong that I can't see
Does this feeling happen to all or just me
I heard my name was called down the school hall
Thinking this is my last fall
Will I be walking in death's steps 
Heard my name my breathe left
I felt like all eyes were on me
There goes that ***** and her hommies 
They all strapped up with bats
With their baseball hats
They told me to meet them in the back
It was like a scene in a movie 
I went with them one of them pushed me
They called me ho **** all kinds of bitches
After the disses I felt hands all over me 
So many blows my vision got blurry 
Next thing I'm loaded up on a gurney 
This is where life started its journey 
I heard someone say coma and mom
Was holding me tight in her arms 
My pulsse started to go moms screams
Started fill my spirit and dreams
The riggsmortis sets my thoughts clear
My feelings shed one last tear
I'm now walking towards the pearly gates
Where my life right after firmly waits
At the wake my ghost wipes away
Moms tears the pastor needed tissue
My congregation saying they'll miss you
The semester starts with my eulogy
Hanging in the first orientation 
Peace starting setting in patience
I'm gone and there's nothing to that
My attackers should of knew that
Their serving life and one committed suicide
Paying the price for committing homicide
