Analysis of Life Story By: Blaze McClaskey
Blaze McClaskey 2006 (Indiana)
Ay this is my life story yeah
Everyday I went to school looking blue
My life coming undone like a screw
I wondered why was everyone looking at me
I wanted to stand still there like a tree
My Mom doing drugs and my dad locked up
I just wanted to end my life but then it would corrupt
I wanted a better life
I wanted to fly like a kite
One day DCS came knocking on my door
I just wanted to not be ignored
From that day I remember we were crying
I didn't want to leave my momma we felt we were dying
I went from home to home feeling worthless
I didnt know what life was or if it had a purpose
I always thought about my momma in my head
I was always crying in bed
I didn't what her to fall
I didn't want this life at all
This life story is tough
It's rougher than rough
I didn't know where I was going to get my next meal
My life felt like a windmill
Every week I had therapy
They trynna get me happy but I don't give a fuck
Always trynna change
But it felt like a game
U touch my family imma come at u
U don't who u messing with
My momma ain't someone to mess with
She will come at u like nesquick
My brother out there searching for a life
He really did take a dive
My sisters are still seeking glory
They told me not to worry
I always thought about life
If I would ever die
This for my fam I luv them to death
For them I would take a bullet to the head
My life wasn't fair
I felt like I took to much air
The world ain't the same anymore
This ain't a game no more
That's my life my life story
Don't make me tell it again
And to all those people who doubted me fuck you
And look where I am now
I look at all the haters
They just jealous
I know when we meet up again it's going to be different
It's gonna be magnificent
Ay don't let your head down no matter what
God has a plan for u no matter what
That's my life story and I'm going to have to end it here
All I gotta say is don't get near
