M.2.M

I was a youngin on the block where my brothers stay broke
Mama working late, fridge damn near empty though
Learned how to stretch meals, learned how to stay strong
Learned how to smile through it, even when it felt wrong

Sirens sang lullabies outside my window
Sleep with my shoes on, never know when to go
JRose on the corner said, “We more than this”
Burn had a plan, said the streets won’t win

We was skipping school just to chase a dollar
Dreams bigger than the block, pain made us holler
Same clothes, same nights, same cold air
But we had each other, felt like life was fair

Then time got dark, and the block got greedy
Took my brothers one by one, shit wasn’t easy
First name turned to candles on the curb
Second name echoed every time I heard

Mama crying asking God what she do wrong
I’m standing there quiet, tryna stay strong
Heart full of anger, head full of doubt
Just a kid in the streets tryna find a way out

I don’t wanna be another face on a tee
Another “he was good” in a RIP
So I talk to the sky when the night too long
Tell JRose and Burn I’m still holding on
