My Life
This is about a boy whose life got turned around

Used to always chill with friends and never back down

Finally got caught and finally got arrested

What he didn't know was he was being tested

When he got out there wasn't much he would say

We all found out that he was moving away

No longer with his girl starting fresh and New

Heading down south and no clue what to do

The bus finally stopped he arrived in Martin County

Took a deep breath and walked away proudly

He moved to his grandma's who lived in Indiantown

Every single night he had to sleep on the ground

Always thinking about the life he left behind

Now it's just a memory imprinted in his mind

It took three months he's no longer upset

I guess the whole time he was planning to forget

Then he moved again when things were going great

He moved to his aunts who lived in Golden Gate

He was good for a week until he had to work

With his aunt's husband putting up with that jerk

Shedding so much blood things seemed to be so cruel

Until six months went by they finally enrolled him in school

He goes to Martin County he's in the ninth grade

No more blood being shed no longer getting paid

Met some new friends started hanging with a crew

Getting into fights and robbing people too

Suspended from school to many times

Wondering the streets committing many crimes

Two months later barely standing on his feet

His aunt couldn't take it she threw him out on the street

He moved to his uncle's who lived in Salerno

That's the last place he thought he would go

Chilling with his cousin every night at the park

Even though he had a curfew to be in before dark

That didn't matter he was never really home

Even when he was he was always on his phone

No one really knew what was going through his head

They didn't even care about a word that he said

Another eight months things seemed to be in motion

Until his uncle kicked him out now he lives in East Ocean

Sick and tired of always moving around

At first he's doing good then his life crashes down

Will his luck change well nobody knows

Trouble seems to follow him wherever he goes

One day things will change no more brutality

This is how it is this is his reality

Don't Forget his name he goes by JT

If you didn't know that boy was me
