Poem

THUG LIFE

-You was just a kid when you began to mess up you thought you were tuff only 15 doing drugs.

-You dropped out of school and had nothing to do your mom kicked you out of the house and you thought it was cool.

-Now let me tell you something that you already know you messed up your life and that is for sho.

-Three years in prison i guess wasn't enough came out had a kid and began to mess up.

-I do not know why you do this with your life it's a shame how you make your family cry.

-You have a little boy that needs you by his side to tuck him in at night tell him you love him and good night.

-But that ain't gonna happen cause you ain't no longer here your mother lays and cries at night and you're the reason for tears.

-This is what happens when you hang with the wrong crew look at the thing you've done and put your mother through.

-Yes you screwed up your life and made your family cry but no matter what you did we where always by your side.

-There was no good reson for you to do the things you did you left behind your family you left behind your kid.

-You thought you was a thug but was nothing but a punk.
-For hanging with that crew look where your life led you.

-And now your stuck in prison and there's nothing you can do except remember that no matter what your family will love you.
