I have been through so much
I have had to skip dinner, breakfast and lunch
I have been outside drug dealing
I have been in stores sneaking and stealing
I have hurt a lot of people that I’ve met
I have fought because of a silly lost bet
I have been jumped, robbed, stabbed, and cut
I have had alcohol fill my inner gut
I have been through a lot of heartbreaks
I have made so many dumb mistakes
I wish things would’ve ended differently
I wish every text didn’t end in a rivalry
I wish I could put down all these drugs
I wish I could come see you and get your hugs
I wish I could take back the things I’ve done
I wish that I knew I wasn’t your only one
I wish my bro wasn’t constantly on the run
I wish he didn’t have to always carry that gun
I wish my brother didn’t get shot in the head
I wish it was me and not him who was dead
I wish I didn’t have to be on a wretched earth
I wish people didn’t try to tell me my worth
I wish my mom didn’t have to always stress
I wish I could wish just a little bit less
I will make my mother and brothers proud
I will play games in front of a gigantic crowd
I will make sure my friends and family are okay
I will be the reason that people want to stay
I will spread peace love and positivity
I will help out the world and not be a liability
I will find a beautiful girl to love and marry
I will love this girl and the children she’ll carry
I will start a loving and healthy family
I will be a better father than mine ever will be
I will love learn to forgive but not forget
I will buy my mom her first ever corvette
I will continue to try and help others
I will outgrow and beat all these suckers
I will love everyone including myself
I will repair everything I have left
I will
