Mr. Africa Poetry Lounge!

SELF PT. II


Raised in the hood
Seen people with the wood grain
Grew up with the gain of weight
The tool of choice was the brain
Life was never a thrill
With everybody getting killed
Getting that first girl
Now she was a thrill
Known to the world as Bill
Nothing in the world gave me feeling
Until I caught the ghost of the righteous
Prayed to just have a happy day
Never recognizing that just living was a blessing
Always had love foe homemade dressing
Caught in a struggle between then and now
But then is gone toward a dark past
Now is voyaging toward a brighter future.
