BROKEN



We all came from a broken home
moved with a scattered trust
Sharing the same pain
Walking through a common hell
Drinking from the same well
Same mindset Same thoughts
We frowned to the world, so tattered
You wouldn’t come near
Our time is nigh
On the real that’s how we started
In the dark alone
The rolls going back and forth
Not our fault
We lost in our thoughts
Reminiscing how hard we fought
A Prayer for my brothers
God bless your craft yeah
I know He does with love
Don’t pray for clouts and stay away from riot
There’s always a need for something to happen before you open your eye to see the world and  when it happens
Never give up
Just own up
You are the boss of your life
 Control it , that is  your slide
Who you call a slime will turn up biting your arm .Just be on your grind the best is yet to come
Forgo the  short term temptation to realize your long term value.
That is Life
They label it Pride
Just move on brother just move on.
