Secure My Security

Pinewood school park Is where I used to run and have fun in.
Been stomping that concrete since a young in. 
Mom high off an eight ball, Im in my feelings bug gin
Under the bridge by the creek is where you used to find my graffiti art in.
Moved to Maryland from Florida just to be faced with the same situation.
Thinking that Ma would have stayed still she was on seven years of Parole And a few months probation.
Ma couldn’t maintain her promise on staying clean.
That was a waste of my childhood dream.
Learned young that I was on my own to build my own family, Create my own team.
So, If I am willing to devote my all.
I secure my security when I say, “I got you til I fall”.
