the start of the day
he rises from the streets
crazy and discussed
is how he cheats
on the low, camouflage
is how he sneaks
around the town and in your hood
keeping it real
like he should
selling from what he steals
dwelling on musty deals.
he can't survive
next to nothing
he's barely alive
wanted by the so many
he cry's.
hiding all his feelings
deep down inside.
heads always twisted
can't keep this up
needs ventilation
trapped but never stuck.
it never ends good
but he don't give a fuck
not a worry in the world
as he retreats, banking on luck.
must keep moving
always be ready.
there comes a time
this life becomes deadly.
