Living The Thug Life

Living the thug life poetically, you can't

Stop me! Against all odds and I am con-

-quering all the tallest mountains and 

Slaying lions that keep trying me. I am so

Ready for battle with my adversaries! You

Can throw me in a penitentiary without

Any commissary, you're not decimating

My spirit! I'll put a end to your sentence

Like period. How dare you don't take me

Serious as an emissary of poetic thuggery?

 
Author's Notes/Comments: 

Commonly mistaken for a Criminal. Thug Life is the opposite of someone having all he needs to succeed. Thug life is when you have nothing, and succeed, when you have overcome all obstacles to reach your goals.
