Kai’isha had dreams
She wasn’t some girl
from the ghetto
She had plans
for her future
She saw what happened to her big sister
(if you can call her
a sister at all)
She saw her slip sideways
Landing on the streets
Jus’ like Mama told her
But she didn’t listen
She never listened
Neither did my baby brother
The one I raised
Nights Mama
never came home
No more now
That R’kell had gone
He was but a child
Who never had a chance
God just picked him up
With that random bullet
And took him home early
But me
I gotta make somethin’
out of my life
I know I can
If I believe
And I do
Believe
Other
wise…
