Everyday Struggle

All I know is writing all I do is grind, I got to get it, gotta work if I wanna shine, hard hustling, a** bussing, aint trying to hear my baby mama when she fussing, steady cussing favorite phrase I ain't , I tried that shoe on and it don't fit, I'll never quit, no surrender I'll never give, out the hood I had to fight to live, wanting ,ore not what was laid, fully paid, brave was never afraid, and I'll show no fear until I am in a grave self made, self taught, all the bs they taught was never bout, one ear and out the other, obtained the basics somethings I learned from my mother, built on top of that base now all you non-believers have to see my face, rushing and I didn't know it was a race, I will finish even if I come in last, atleast I was in the competition some visions never come to fruition, my dreams are vast and broad, grew up hard on the avenue and boulevard, wanna be in your books on your bookshelf getting read but instead they got me in the feds gone in the head,

My Brother, I keep reading you over and over---a credit to how deep and real you write---and the lingering image of the profundity of the poetic canvas you paint, is in the "avitar" photo you post. Stay strong. Thanks for the inspiration you give. Peace and Love.,
