Remember the eyez

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

REMEMBER THE EYEZThe street children pray to street godsTo save their tormented black soulsThe boroughs of the streets stay infestedDrunken ghetto sons stay wastedThe pillar of our society exerts laws of immunityOne step to a trash can, brings visions of a poor black manRecognize the treasure of human lifeThe money you use to buy tequilaCan save a child from street thrillerTake heed,The seed you release, requires protection and food to eatFamily elements extended their abusive tentaclesHell on earth, not only to the mentally tormentedThe kid sniffing glue is on his way to be cementedThe hands out you giveMake impossible dreams easy to perceiveIf you believe in the righteousness of manA life saved helps you become a better manThe thoughts of I only exposeThe societal moral fiber patterns that’s forces you and yoursTo turn your head and ignore the outstretched hand Remember the eyes, when your glass runs outToday you live well, tomorrow your luck might run out.
