OG Poetry



Original gangster

Im drawing lines around you
My pen my gat, my fedora hat
I’m gonna win, you gonna lose

Online prankster

It is a red pen that I choose
Don’t look back, the futures where it’s at
My future without you

Prohibition

Its got me all locked down
Im Running in the night, running alright
Smuggling freedom too

I say no thank you

You won’t shoot me too
A shot in the back, not where it’s at
Coming from a coward like you

As they lay thee
Down to sleep
For your heart of stone
We just wont weep
Atop the mound
Under which your found
Ill shake it up

You know Ill shake it down

Original gangster

Im drawing lines around you
My pen my gat, my fedora hat
I’m gonna win, you lose
