Grief. sorrow. sadness. and pain
Living life with such disdain
You never looked even for my breath
Then you say you can't believe my death
Alright. It Doesn't matter anyway
Not like, I was ever getting away
Me. Yeah, The one in the back, I'm laying flat
Put a bullet through my head, sound of a gat
Why am I detained in a life I didn't chose, whose
idea was it, force me to live, I'm singing the blues,
Here's news, get off my back and let me swing, without,
a wing or anything stopping me from dying
Now you sing, the words that come from sorrow
As everyone like me sit on death's row
Get up and act, take it into your own hands
GO! Stand, take a hand even if it's not planned
Let my story be a lesson, pressin', into your mind
And make it a thing, do not allow anyone be blind
We can stop it, together, forever
Do not ever think otherwise, Never!
This was originally written as a rap styled piece (by me of course) but I revised it to be more of a poem in a traditional stance with the two line stanzas and equal syllables for those two lines.
