I Put My Soul In This Poem!!



I Put My Soul In This Poem!!

We went from brothers to sisters
To Niggas and b**ches
We went from loyalty living
To a whole lot of snitching
We be throwing away food
Like people not starving in the streets
We went from staying together
To a whole lot of beef
We went from peace and silence
To a whole lot of violence
We try to get big houses to look a lot better
When people be homeless living in and out of shelters
It's hell down here I wonder when will tho savior come
Y'all got to feel me on this one; I put my soul in this poem
