Where I Live
the place i grew up,
the place i call home,
the place i dont want to be.
but still i am hear
where theres lots to fear
and people just dont know me.
im 15 years old
and i know to much
about what goes on around me,
theres drug and crime
and young people dieing
and thing i never dreamt i would see.
you think thing wont happen to you,
that your shelterd from the world
but it all becomes to real
when some one you loves gets killed!
