Dusty streets and windy corners darkness covers land,
While dogs bark, and children cry, dice are shot by man.
A pair of dice thrown against the wall to much noise and disturbance,
People shut their windows and just pretend they never heard it.
'10, 10! Come on daddy needs a sweater and some shoes!'
'9, I'm so sorry sir, but it appears to me that you lose!'
"It's aight man, you'll get em next week," said his best friend John,
He couldn't believe what he did, he lost his paycheck, what did he do wrong?
Heartbroken and distraught the man walks to his home,
Where he finds a note from his wife, inside he is alone.
'Honey, you have broken your children and my heart,
Forever you will regret your choices, Sincerely, Landmark'
He walks back out and starts writin in his mind,
It's the only place he can hide and in true happiness will he find.
'I lost the money, the love, and soon my car and my crib,
This ghetto they say is not for all, yet for some it is to live
While sins lie unforgiven people read and think these rhymes are fiction.
If only my testimony was heard and people knew the truth,
Cuz you can lose your money, kids, crib, and I lost my Ru....'
He never finished his thought because he was on the edge of town,
He looked around but a torn and aged picture was all he found.
So he bent down to look at the picture, it was around 1 in the morn,
And at first he didn't reconize it, but soon realized it was porn.
He looked at the woman and reconized the face, but it was too dark,
But then he saw a tattoo on the woman's breast which read landmark.
He couldn't believe it, his wife was a porn star, could this be, was it true?
Maybe she did it before they were married and he just never knew.
He looked on the date of the picture, 5-11-05, a month ago to a day,
And they had been married for 5 years, there was just no way..
He looked harder at the picture and witnessed a scene which made him cry,
His best friend was behind her, now all he could ask was why god why?
Did I really mess my life up so bad that everyone would leave me?
God I want to change my life around, please Lord forgive me!
Then he felt something slide across his shoes and stick into the ground,
He listened for something else, but silence outweighed the sound.
He picked up the objects in the sand and looked at them with wettened eyes,
It was amazing what he 'lost with these pair of dice.'
