Us Against The World!

Its easier to take your life, But i know you dont want to
Cuz u gotta son, And the memory of his father haunts you
Taunts you, Thats why you have trouble trusting males
And why you were on the corner, Husslin for some sales
On a path destined to fail, Just tryin to pass the time
Clothes dirty, Thinking you nothing cuz you lack design
Stashin dimes, Hopin you can sell em to feed your baby
Get him on the right path, But dam these streets is crazy


The government think you lazy, you need the help of wellfare
But it aint enough money to eat, Just used all up on med-care
Ya son, You love him, But you need a husband not to show fear
So you can stop workin dead end jobs, that take you nowhere
But you got thru the pain, Making sure that ya son was raised
Yet you still havent grown up yourself, So everynight he prays
Utterly hopin in fact, That his mother would clean up her act
But gets ignored in favor of crack, All he see's is her back


No reason for that, But all that matters to her is short term
The roles are reversed, Now the son has to support her
Even tho he cant afford to & His adolescense aint done yet
He realizes his mom used to look out the window at the sunset
She definately a stubborn bitch, Cuz drugs had her loving it
The son supports her habit, With free money from the government
Even tho he wants none of it, He doesn't have a choice
Cuz his enviroment tells society that he doesnt have a voice


He reads & grows smarter, His own expectations are raising
So he doesnt fuck with drugs, He uses music instead of fading
And its amazing, Suddenly, His whole point of view is changing
Thought he wouldnt make it, But it was Hip-Hop that saved him
Paved his way for a future, Fuck if he was a late bloomer
Cuz hes a man now, And his moms even a straight shooter
No longer a cocaine user, No longer as light as a feather
It seems they gonna make it, They got their life together


It's a great thing Mom, We've been through thick and thin too
But i havent felt this safe, Since i was a fetus within you
So i thank you, For all your lessons, And for giving me life
Cuz now i realize the struggle was a way of giving advice
You were right, Life is more rich than diamonds and pearl
So i take comfort in this zone, Its us against the world

I thought this was a pretty dope piece. I like how your story evolved into something. Like a lotus, word. Your structure was flawless, and your flow was on tact, which made this a good read. I like how you thought out on what you were writing about, so your piece doesn't seem choppy in places, and that the thoughts seem well connected.

Props.
