A young boy is in prison for attempted murder.his mom comes to see him and talk to him about his life

SON
ma a didt mean it...honestly
a just seen this guy and his gun run towards me
a paniked, picked ma gun up and shot
thn nearly died maself when a seen his limp body drop
but now i see its what a had to do to be alive
i had to stand up to him, sho him i wasnt afraid to die
so you see mom, your wrong about me being stupid
if i hadnt shot him when a did....he would have
so dont cry bout me a did the right thing
and am gonna get out of here alive..someday

MOM
look son...i love you aight but theres something i need to share wit u
it seems you have your prorites wrong, you aint thinking about you
jut thinking bout the rep youd get if you ran away that night
but instead you got the jail because this guy wanted to fight
in ma eyes you did wrong, and here is ma theory
of life...ive used it all my life and it has never betrayed me

we enter this world alone and leave the exact same way
that why people live life to the full...each and every single day
optimists and pessimists all end up the same
so why worry about trivial things? life just a sick game
we all players, pawns in this gigantic chess board
gettin into fights for nothing, buying things we cant afford
lifes a bitch and then you die, get that fact into your head
no matter if your a prince or a bum..yall end up dead
so a suppose you could say a think the glass is half empty
bu in ma life reality and logic surrounds me
you ma son and i couldnt imagine life without you
and if you did get killed over something stupid.fuck knows what i would do
ave seen shit happen that you only see in movies
in this life yall nothing but newbies
think cause you kno the talk and you have your toy guns
that your safe whatever happens...can face everything head on
well your wrong, cause not even i can withstand everything
tere will be times when i will turn around and run
just keep a level head and kno when to turn and run
atleast youll be alive another day...rather than diein a hard man
