Love Lost

Love lost in so many places People rejected cause of different races Silent because you're scared to be heard Not sure if your voice counts, so you choose for your opponent to speak first. Love lost in so many places Gave up on your dreams because the closess people to you hated. Now you searching in the world for your confidence and pride but the world destroyed you and only made it easier for you to die. Love lost in so many places Girls choose to sleep around because thats how they think they gonna make it. Momma never home, and Daddy aint around only gave that strange man a reason to sex her and keep her bound. Love lost in so many places Rather kill before some other ***** choose to take it. Hustling just to get everything you got but than you got greedy, so you decided to go eat out of another man's pot. Love lost in so many places Babies having babies and the system just up and take em. Fighting just to be the mother society pressured you to be Now your child moving home to home Looking for you, asking: "Why me"? Love lost in so many places Too many places but people seem to choose to erase it But the only thing about these places, they never dissaper Why you think 99.9% of people in the world Is living with the spirit of fear. "Love Lost"
