The Poetic Thug

I’m a thug by nature, I was born to be
I didn’t choose the thug life, it chose me
I approach life differently, uniquely but admittedly 
It look me long enough to see
This is how it’s meant to be
I’m a poetic thug come ride with me
The journey ain’t going to be easy
But I’ll be there for you if you’re there for me
Everybody needs a friend
Everybody needs a helping hand
Everybody needs a hug, even a thug
Accept me for who I am 
A thug by nature, that’s who I am
Sincerely, the poetic thug
