Turntable Posted May 27, 2006 Report Share Posted May 27, 2006 (edited) I wrote something.. Its been quit emotional to do. I wrote it in english, caus I wanted to share my thoughts with you guys.. I got heavily inspired by Ja Rule`s "Where I`m From", LL`s "Homicide" and Fabulous`s "Breathe". Than I read the verse Lerkot recently posted.. And that gave me the final push do clear my head about this issue. Concidering where I life I would say I know what I`m talking about.. Anyway, I realy would like to have feedback on this one. (Oh, and dont mind the hook, I know that one isnt good, but I just cant do that right.) --- An old man, walking down the road No shyne in his eyes, not orientation as he goes His mind is somwhere else, he`s not in this world He should feel cold, but on the inside it burns Its the drugs that made him be that way Its not unusual, you can see it everyday Around the corner, you can see people laying on the street Walking down the block, searching for another shot No future to look at, a present thats dark Look into theyr eyes, you see that theyr human You`ll see theyr mind is fighting a war, questions come up What brought them so far, why are they doing this **** But than again, is it only them to blame? Missery like this comes out of situations we create Yes, theyr taking it, but it aint us to judge that they are weak Maybe its the world we life in to blame Anyway, its like they dont seem to care Caus theyr to high to think about wat theyr doing As the year passes by, they dont change theyr routine Till one day its enough, theyr bodys cant take it nomore They next thing you know, you`ll see them laying in the snow Waiting for someone to come and pick them up But time passes, no one seems to react So theyr spirit gives up, theyr body starts to shake And thats how they end up, doomed for theyr grave.. Dont let it get you down No, Fight for your life No matter whats wrong Dont give up on hope You will be able to shyne So, look deep inside yourself And search for some light A young girl, full of love for the life Not knowing whats she`s about to do Not knowing that her friend arents as good as they seem Just one time, thats what they say She wants to be a part, so she goes theyr way Its not gonna be this one time, for feal And she aint a special case, no, just one of the girls Its a big problem, about to get regular Girls getting into drugs, for no reasons it seems They can folow a education, they could realise theyr dreams But all that gets crushed, when they feel the rush Next thing you know, theyr standing at the corner Selling theyr bodys, in the search for more money Its a cirkle, Its hard to get out Not allot of them make it, they cant shout For help, caus no one seems to care So they keep going with the flow, getting deeper and deeper Caught up in a bussines thats dark, and full of danger People that try to abuse the girls in theyr ****ed up situtations Bad men taking at adventage of it First they seem nice, but next thing you know Your working for them, prostituting, begging for dope If you dont coorperate, you`ll end up dead The girls are weak, they have no power to fight it They wanna survive, so they just go with the flow Till theyr limit is passed, and they leave this world It`s a sad thing to see, damn she was only 13 She was only a girl.... Dont let it get you down No, Fight for your life No matter whats wrong Dont give up on hope You will be able to shyne So, look deep inside yourself And search for some light Things like these, **** it drives me mad And the gouvermnet, lets face it They arent doing **** do change it, they just let is dissaper Caus its not a good imagine, for the tourists and **** They dont help in anyway, they just wipe it away And when someone stands up, they make him shut his mouth Caus its not safe for them, it could leak out What they dont see, is that we allready know this **** We life this ****, we see people going down People I care about got lost in those cirkles But the damn politicians just dont seem to face it No, they dont even show it, so nobody knows Well, Its to late mother****ers, caus we found our voice One you can strike down, its they voice called hope Yes, some people still got hope for it to change It might seem strange, but I aint giving up A better world starts in your own country It starts at your block, in your house for Gods sake So dont let it get you down, no, fight for your life And I know it cand be hard, I feel it myself Sometimes I just wanna call it a day, give up on life But no, that wont help, thats what I realise All I can do is take a pen and something to write on Than take a mic, and spread it through the world And I know I dont have much power to change it But **** that ****, caus if you feel what I say You`ll know you aint alone, we arent ignoring it We face those facs, and that gives you hope.. -- Sorry for the quit big amount of curses in the last verse. I just couldnt help it. Edited May 28, 2006 by Turntable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
