That Green

Thats what it do.

That Green

 

The day I smoked my 1st blunt

What an experience for me

On that day I turned 13

It was a party off that GREEN

 

My high was filled with laziness and laughter

Plus you know I had to Choke

But when my coughs were done and over

I got light headed like I just shot some dope

 

Of course I didn't stop blazing

It became a comfort ZONE for me

Forget dealing with all my life frustrations

Ima go get some of that make you chill and 4get WEED

 

At first it seemed like Initiation,

For my acceptance in the Hood

The beer & cigarettes I did already

So now, S**T.......Everything is all good

 

I wasn't truly loving myself

Plus my self-esteem was real LOW

I am well aware of my thick lips, not so straight teeth, plus a wide nose

But all those people didn't have to remind me though

 

The addiction is in my blood line

Like how Si cal-cell, Diabetes and cancer flows threw blood streams

And I know it hit me hard because-

That WEED had me put aside and forget about a whole lot of My Dreams

 

Im done with thinking its not a Drug

Saling it just ot get high for free

Especially when my customers who just buy 20 bags

Had me realize some were doing better than me

 

There was a time when I was UP 15 yrs. old with 50,000 dollars in the safe

But that night if I was more aware and not off that GREEN

I might not of gotten shot 9 times in the car

With my older cousins life just put to waste

 

You would think I learnt my lesson

But I always been hard headed true indeed

They sent me to Oakhill then a Group Home from what was found in the car

Guns, Crack bagged up and a Real Nice Amount of that Good Good Green

 

It took me a few more times to get locked up

And that hard headedness to smack me in the face

That thug mentality and fast money lifestyle

I finally realized that Im just going to give up on that chase

 

My mind is clear and ready now

That Green I no longer have a need to abuse

Since pointing my life in the right direction

I have a whole lot of offers for me to put my God Blessed and given Talents to USE

 

 

 Not off that Green
