8 Fearz
(Verse)
My first fear was I'd never be like my peers,
Getting cheers and awards but I'm bored with the things I hear,
can you blame me when I'm focused on the next year,
Eyes blurred but soon it's gone be clear,
I hope you hear me,
Do you feeel me?
You never will cause you never had the skill but got froze by the coldest chill,
Life can be so real,
my second fear was I'd never had the chance to try to switch gears,
And try better my existence,
Be persistent,
And Not be the percentage,
Of the blacks incarcerated by the nation bein patient on the day they gettin free,
/That was my third fear my second ties into to 3,
My fourth fear was bein like my father mom see,
That I'm just like him except without the weed,
It's a Shame I wish I wasn't like him but I'm still gone be his offspring
(Verse)
My fifth fear Is lookin at a coffin,
Eyes low and tears droppin,
People comfort but I'm still blockin,
Lockin all the pain away but they still talkin,
Cause they wonder what I'm thinkin,
If y'all wanna know truthfully my life sinkin,
Just thinkin bout my mom leavin,
My 6th fear is the act drinkin,
Consumin alcohol because a brother grievin,
Over past situations that I can't help,
Every blow hit below the belt ,
Body covered in whelps,
But still swim like I'm Michael phelps,
Pushing everything behind while I go straight,
To a destination that I'm not sure is safe,
My 7th fear is I make to the promised land,
Why choose me God? I'm just a man,
Who is burnin in flames that the earth create,
For a black man tryna hold his own weight,
My eight fear is I'm dying by a gun,
Whether by a brother or a cop on the run,
Whether it was by accident I can't say because I never had a voice anyway,
