The fences were only getting higher, an the barbed wires didn’t cut as much,
Lax never made me feel so stuck
Korea town made me feel some kind of love, I wanted to get lost in universal city so much, but Compton made the train seemed dope while party next door played an I road down sunset and 7th on a zflex, fuck money it ain’t shit this is the most alive I’ve ever been
All my friends ain’t shit
They saw but didn’t teach the residing law of how things really happened
How the education was deadly
But worth it
How love only meant shit when it made my heart feel disturbed and offline….. with no sign… of any life, just the graffiti I wrote walking home thru south central at night, looks like my dad had been watching me from the moon
From Boyle heights from the hood rats that respected they’re distance knew I had something that they couldn’t take away or play around with so they kept there distance they weren’t what I’d wanted
I was just a lot cause drowned in the sins I never made but my father
Trying to make it out the best ways he could without no bother
The more I kept quiet the more the gunshots ripped thru my homes walls faster
The cars that lit underneath at night
When sleep was inevitable and death seem like a Billy and Mandy character””
