Where I Live

let me tell you where i live i live in crown heights Brooklyn where shots ring out at 
night and chicks with beef fight where young teenage girls got more kids than my 
mother do where young boys sell drugs to put food on their family table were 
everyone hate on one another and sex money and drugs are the only priorities in 
life i live in a place where negative energy is so bad that when a person does 
something right they look at you like your the one wrong where people judge you 
not knowing only god can well i live in crown heights Brooklyn
