The politicians and Government officials 
Never cared about young black men 
They got me secluded on the corner 
All I see is rot and corruption 
There can not be better days 
All of my dreams come to fruition 
Because I am a young black man 
They got me trapped revealing my primitive side 
I am a young black poet 
My words are never misunderstood 
But always over looked 
I am a strong young black man
