Life of a gangster
Taleshia Lee 1992 (Colorado Springs)
Life of a gangster stealing deception doing anything they can to survive shots fired duck and run mostly used in there vocabulary guns stuck in there belt rags on there face to hide their identity from the world but sooner or later they loose track of themselves as being slaves to life they can't even recognize faces blurry names dont exist covered up by wrongs and rights family dies inside while they die on the streets yelling at others because of there own they yell and yell. But not louder then the shots sirens out on the streets back of cop cars is there destiny or the gutter ether unloved or with holes bullets knives whatever bats pipes shanks there is no escape once you enter the life of a gangster
