Hip-Hop Please Save Me...

He said, "I rap cuz I'm hurt
Write to make it right, the pain my verse
Is amplified to nth when it enters my heart"
Life is constant struggle for him and it all had to start
When his daddy went to jail, and his mom remarried
Little sister on the way, life was kinda scary.
But he grew thru struggles at the cost of his innocence
Only 12 with battle scars... it makes no sense.
Violence in heart, cuz he trust no man
He just a baby in the world... he don't give a damn
his mama worked hard, but they always stayed broke
His daddy came back, had his L's revoked
So he couldn't see him much.... the pain wouldn't stop
Till he heard "Me Against The World" by 2Pac...
It was like a story of his life, written in rhyme
Stopped the little brother from committin' the crimes
That had his dad caged... the potential he had
Was showing thru his words, and it made him feel glad

Years passed and soon he was abundant with knowlage
to get him anywhere in life. Even college...
but the problems reared their head when best friend died
His dad just got stabbed, and he started to cry
Nas & Rakim had him riddled within...
with thoughts that made his words flip again and again
When the tears stopped flowing, then his mouth would start
Talkin' bout he had this drive he called "2Pac's Spark"
He made rhymes and tore 'em up after he wrote
Cuz he cherrished him so much he didn't want them stole
He was cold, somebody said... but that's not why he's here
He writes cuz the plights of his life is his fear
So reality, he leaves as he write 16.
Just his way of bein' a great MC

Now this boy is a man, and his heart is rich
Of pure energy and it comes thru his lips
He spit in a ciepher, they called him a jewel
He had 5 notebooks and he wasn't at school
A cd full of beats from your favorite artist
In the game that wants you hungry... he's starvin'
He ghostwrites for his brothers that wanna rap like him
Uses a pen as a weapon when his life looks grim
He wanna get his mama out of debt... not livin' check
Get his sister in school... show her the important steps
See his baby siblings grow, give his cousin groupie hoes
Give his fam a better life that they never seen before
He's product of the poor, but he never will fall
Soon his drive to succeed will be seen by all
Man, it feels good when it happens like that
He promises that he'll never look back... yessir
