Road of Hope

Along this road the struggles are hard hope is razor thin Cocaine is stop signs preventing many from moving ahead diamonds and gold became blinders keeping children from seeing their potential Being so far down it hurts to look up struggling just yo make through today Prisons have become today's cotton fields in this world I live hope is hard many seek drugs to kill the pain having mothers hooked on drugs Looking at pictures knowing bad out weigh the good drinking liquor to stomach the things seen Crooked police kill but the stories are never told one day hope will vanish
