it was a clouded horizon and yet the sunshine was showing
fire hydrant open, kids playing with cold water flowing
me and hector in front of the building, observing all else
dealers and gangs not far, but fog hid them from ourselves
all eyes were on the children, theyre so free and non aware
water balloons,blastin music...nowhere near their own despair
theyre sparked with youth they dont know the truth like it or not
then that train of thought empties when i see a car down the block
black all around,tinted windows,broken down rims it was shitty
able to scare off others when it rode slowly through the city
it began slowly making way we stood up we were intimidated
it sped up all screams and running as if we were being raided
we tried to run, we hit the deck and hid behind the other cars
when it was all clear of fear i saw my friend lying on the tar
i found out hes been hit oh shit call the paramedics quick
nah they'll take too long ill drive him now before i regret it
tossed him in the seat ran through red lights at full speed
vision turned blurry and my mind was only swept with memories
hector was my homie for life id die for this kid in an instant
we picked each other up after we've fallen or slipped
its a gift to have him here beside me in my presence
hes not about to leave before we even set precedents
remembering the times we threw fart bombs in food places
and plotted plans to rob candies from stores and escaped it
when we played football in the street,arguments sparked at a tie...
and having to move to the side whenever cars were passing by
and baseball on the sidewalk plastic bat and wiffle ball...
1.00 for the package,those that didnt chip in...well fuck em all
my cousin hit pop ups and they got stuck on the fire escape
hector climbed to get it he became spiderman the great
these shots arent his fate and i know hes stronger then this
these memories clinging to hope that he stays on the survived list
so no name tag on his wrist or sent on a stretcher to the morgue
got to the hospital they took him,so much blood even they not sure
what to do...is he done,NO HES NOT...i told them that
waitin in the lobby prayin to god, on my knees is where i sat
4 hours later, im stressed i cant take it nomore i have to see
whether his monitors lines are flat or through a bag...hes breathing
i thanked the lord swept in tears i cried so much it was hurting
he gave him another chance,a new hope,a new life,a new person.......
