Why Do We Bleed

Why do we die in these streets
blood is shed by the heat
brothas shake head to feet

our fear makes us blast on
homes empty children gone
R.I.P. under lawn

So is this why we bleed
to nurish corrupt seed
keep them from the haze of weed

We fail cause they blow
the flames tool when we go
to ever change our flow.
