Tuesday Happened so fast

"We have been overprotecting our young ladies when all along our young men have become the most vulnerable and emotional weak."

Doreen Williams - Mother/Aunt/Watchdog/Teacher


Family Re-unions are mandatory, leave no mind unsaid and no heart un-bled

We are family. A disconnected and dysfunctional bunch, but a family all the same. Once family, always family. Those who never forget, will never regret. Blood is thicker than water, and water's thicker than air. So when a victim is losing blood, they prefer water over the air, and air instead of blood. On the corner tryna "figure it out" when all you needed was love.

Over-reacting from the wound, they swallow the water whole, never considering the source. But the water rushes through his system, until it poisons, drowning out the pulse...

Life lives as simple as it starts. In the most tragic of moments....what you want is rarely what heals the heart.

Truly speaking....Some ppl give in to death, long before their first days in battle.

They say home is
where the heart is
No courage
to let the smart live
So they smart from hollow shots
Before potential meets its promise
And thats how they're on it
On the block and on the corners
A mother cries hysterical
A miracle reversed at the coroners
Now who gets the blame
When revenge meets the pain
And a hurt decision
From your own "send off" mission
Start the process all over again

From the city
Where they ride out
Without thinking
So they die out
And you try to shed a tear
But a body drops
Before it runs out....

Happens so fast
A flag at half-mast
Got you wet blinking
Now you're swimming in an ocean
Of "wish you coulds"
And hypothetical timeouts
No manual
No rules
shorty was just trying
To line his life out
Hopped in a studio
and Tried to get his rhymes out
But found himself
In a jungle, out there
Letting his lion out
But when a lion meets a lion
The only way to tell the predator
From its prey
Is to watch for the first one
With a firm grip
Prepared to let that iron out
Determined to die another day

*Honor a life lost by doing the best with yours. Even if we never make it "BIG" at least we live to laugh about it tomorrow**
