Old Pimps And Burnt Toast

Old Pimps And Burnt Toast

A Poem by E.Gleaves
"

What do old pimps and burnt toast have in common? Fading dreams of grandeur enjoy lol

"
A septa buss outfitted with 22’s and a turbo kit 
That’s how we want to ride.
That way we’d be sure to stand out 
And stunt like Daredevil or Evil Knievel. 
We’ll do anything for attention 
Even pimp out toast if it we’re possible
Which it isn’t. 
You’ll never hear about a pimp gettin burnt
That’s because that ain’t pimpin’
And if you ain’t pimpin’ you damn sure not ballin’
Needless to say we’re just pump fakin’,
Sittin on project benches waiting for platinum chains to fall from the sky
Then we'll get haters and even make em jealous 
Until then, we’ll keep absorbing what this rap music tells us.
