Loss of Innocence

So many years ago My innocent eyes saw too much Loss of innocence With just one touch Fleeing to shelters Watching as my mom get's choked Got older Tired of being broke No more straight A's All I could see was money Because I thought things would get better at home Willing to do anything Even bust on people unknown Lies, deception, and manipulation was apart of me No more going to church Seems like everything around me Is filled with pain and hurt It hurts When your homeboy get's gun down Seems like you get used to it When there's nothing but death around Not trying to end up like them But wouldn't hurt to leave Praying for my soul As I look up and on my knees.
