Street Life

Click click boom and your brothers gone

Sittin at his funeral knowin he aint’ do nuthin wrong

Was just at the wrong place at the wrong time aint know where to start

Messed around, got 3 bullets to his heart

Grandma on a breathing machine

Take all her breath just to tell you she loves you, make you wanna scream

Scream and pray to God why you?

How to get out of it, what you gotta do?

Sleeping with ak’s and pistols under your bed

Cause you never know whats going through these sick peoples heads

Auntie Cindy just found out she got a STD

Daddy out to kill that hustler when could he be?

All this weight on your shoulders cant even sleep

Im far from hood but understand he streets, call on me

Can You Handle Me

Im a liddo more ladyish

Alot less hoodrat

Ima liddo more relaxed, chill

Alot less loud, ghetto, arguing type

Im the girl to just cool it with

I dont expect let alone, want the world from my dudes

All i ask is that they give me repect, honesty, and love

Ima keep it real wit chuu

So longg as you keep it real with me

I can handle the truth

You cant hurt my feelings

I just want honesty

ahaa , oh yeah and i wont “tie you down”

I admit, i do get jealous

But i keep it to myself

I dont make scenes

And while them other chicks running they mouth to they homegirls

Whatever we talk about stays between us

Im a little more ” I understand”

Alot less “why the heck would you”

Blaming you for every little mistake

Im a liddo more than some of these girls

And alot less than some others

Im not like them, i’m my own person

Can you handle me?

Game

Right now im feelin like you think im a game. 
Sometimes the things you say put me to shame. 
You act way different than when yu first came. 
Tellin me you love me and you barely know my name. 
I admit i fell for your game thats why we are where we are. 
I mean you got me on the sidelines while you acting like a star. 
Im standing here routing for you. 
But yet and still you dont notice me boo. 
You passing balls to everyone on the court. 
And now im jealous, crying but for what? 
I should just go home, you got enough crowd. 
Plus the referee is NOT seeing all these fouls. 
You winning by alot so now you slacking. 
But my team is on man, we came back! 
With just a minute and a half on the clock you trying to put the effort back in. 
But its too late. Game over, I win

Buried Alive

Why’d you have to kill me?
What did I ever do?
And take me 6 feet under
How’d I hurt you?
Now I can’t breath
My mind is focused on the wrong things
Im stuck in this hole
A hole that feels like theres no way to get out of
And its your fault
I was ALIVE
And you BURIED me
And its your fault
I was smiling
And you took away all the happiness
Now im buried under all the pain, hurt, lies
Dishonesty, disrespect, now im forced to lay here and die
But why?
You’re the bad guy
It was YOU who came by
Looked me in the eye
And LIED . . . .
And lied , and lied

Apology Not Accepted

Shame on me
I guess im sorry for looking out for my brothers and sisters
Thats not my responsibility right?
Oh and im sorry for actually trying to do good in school
I forgot, I’m, not supposed to be nothing in life
Sorry for being the best that I can and nothing less
Sorry for not letting you haters get me stressed
Yeh sorry for helping you out, later getting hate in return
Sorry for trying to do the right thing, when will i learn?
I am sooo sorry for believing when you said your love for me was true
Dang man, im sorry for putting my trust in YOU!
From me? Bet this is not what you expected
Wait what you say?
Apology not accepted?

Love From a Distance

Since we've seen each other well its been kinda long
But something must have happened our connections' kinda strong
And I really need my heart to take me right where I belong
Cause i've been doing good to long to turn around and do wrong
You took me from my boyfriend I didn't want to play along
With his games all he wanted was to see me in a thong
Better yet to take it off
But I'm not like that uh uhh
I have a sense of right and wrong
Yeah mama taught me right from wrong
But my daddy taught me too
What a good man is supposed to do
And yes I listened thats how I knew
Thats how I knew that it was you
Anyway back to what I was sayin'
I havent seen you since 7th grade and
I just dont know if you're the same within
The same you've always been
So i guess what im trying to speak of
Is the fact you're all I think of
So im gonna take my head out the clouds above
And ask do you accept my love?

See Me

You say “I like your hair”
Thanks but do you know whats going through my mind?
You look me in my face and lie
But do you see the tears in my eyes?
All in my pictures on my phone
But do you know what kinds of conversations i go through?
Do you know? Do you know? Really, do you?
See I feel like lifes inmate
Locked behind all this confusion, trying to escape
On my face is a smile
But its only a “free trial”
If I see somthing else go
My real feeling will show
Would you be suprised if i told you im not as happy as I make out to be?
I promise this 2k10 year has given me a rude awakening to reality!

Tears From Abortion

I shed tears

Because I was going to have a little boy

And i was a little girl

The only thing I could think to do

Was give you up and move on

I was living for the moment

But then again, how can you expect a young girl like me to make these decisions?

Mommy was stupid

Mommy was young

Mommy had sex

Because mommy was drunk

Mommy was foolish

But mommy loves you

And mommy misses you

I hope that you can find it

In your precious little heart

To forgive me

Baby boy im sorry

Its not that I didnt care about you, I did

And its not your fault

But if its God’s will

Maybe on a later date

Little Jacori we can meet again

Untitled

Woot woot its all games and fun

Think you gonna ruin my life? You better get one

So you screaming out the mouth with the rest of the world

Thats cool, just dont come to me talking bout hey babygirl

Everytime i turn around, all you do is envy

Say whats on your mind, just be real. Feel me?

But if you dont like what I do

Then up , up , and away thats you

See enemies and friend aint meant to become one

You either coolin it or chuckin it

Deuces , im done

My Life

I give everyone else advice

But i cant bear my own life

I turn everones sadness into gladness

But my eyes are stained with tears

My whole day is spent telling people how to handle this and that

But yet i cry myself to sleep every night

Everyone wants me to pray for them

But sometimes I wonder, where is my God when I need him

Its amazing how one can appear one way but truly be the opposite at heart

Still dont understand? How about you live a day in the life of Jazmyn Re’Chanel
