Years in the stretch
I'm sinking fast.... I just spent my last trying to last til tomorrow and everybody I know is conveniently broke I couldn't even borrow hope or a bar soap to wash away these dirty looks...reading the good book, had me shook all this time I was just tryna survive I turned to a page the first two lines had me realize that I was nothing, but a common theft.. I never thought about itI was just tryna eat now I just wanna change the game Forget the receipt fifteen shots or less in the express lane just enough to warm the body or numb the chest I prayed through all the hard times never to forget! that through all the BS I'm still here just to make it.... young black talented and flagrant!
