MY Life I Grew Me Up
Half man half amazin, But Under the sun he's just a raisin. Brought up in the streets, his actions brazen. Emotions in his heart and soul ragin. Whose gonna help this boy whose now a man. Never had a chance never had a plan. Didn't ever have a hand. Somebody to teach him to stand. Smile worn, spirit torn. Struggles the name of the game. Breakin even, nah not for steven. They say a mind is a terrible thing to waste, but so is a man. People walk by look and say damn. Shake a head, flash a smirk. Help a nigga, nah, that's to much work. The world is to busy to stop and ask why I cry. Why I try. Why im here. Please, tell me, why are you there. I got my back but who got my front. Uncle sam say he got you but that's just a front. Ima cross coulors like criss. Gotta leak take a piss. But move fast don't wanna miss this. Im bout to shake my fists. Im gonna shout back. Fight the man. I don't need help now cause I've grown to be a man. Took a while but I got a plan. Got a job to help me stand. Got a crib to lay my head. Grub in the fridge to keep my stomach fed. Books on the shelves to keep my brain fed. Wild thoughts in the head. Starting to think ima make it. Wait a minute I made it. Give myself an A+ if you wanna grade it. My life story you just played it. The outro. Ima fade it...

Every time I think I know my favorite post, you add a new one and I just can't decide which I like best. So decide I won't. I'll patiently wait for the next.
