IF I WERE YOU
I'D CHANGE BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE
WHATS THAT FOUR LETTERED WORD
LOVE
WATCH IT TURN TO
HATE
YEAH YOUR LIVING GOOD NOW
BUT YOU KNOW THAT MONEY ISN'T CLEAN
I WON'T KNOCK YOU FOR HUSTLING
BUT IT WON'T LAST FOREVER
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN
YOUR PRIORITIES ARE ALL MESSED UP
YOUV'E PUT YOUR FRIENDS BEFORE YOUR KIN
BUT WHEN YOUR FRIENDS DISAPPEAR FROM YOUR SIDE
YOUR VICTORIES AREN'T NO LONGER GURANTEED WINS
YOU USED YOUR MONEY TO BUY EVERYONE ELSES DRINKS
THEN YOU REALIZED THAT THEY WERE USING YOU
AND YOUR PRIDE STARTED TO SINK
YOUR WOMAN LOVES YOU
SHE TREATS YOU LIKE GOLD
YOU GOT THE HEART OF A PLAYER
BUT TRUST ME PLAYER
IT GETS OLD
YOUV'E MADE SOME CRAZY DECISIONS
AND YOU STILL TRY TO AVOID THE LIGHT
YOU WERE GIVEN SO MANY CHANCES
WHEN WILL YOU START TO THINK BRIGHT
WILL IT TAKE A DEATH
OR
YOUR INCARCERATION
YOU DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR YOUR
RECARNATION
"CHANGE NOW"

This poem was indeed very powerful. I nearly cried. I don't know exactly how your feeling, but i know how bad you can feel when you have to sit back and watch the people you care about ruin their lives. I've been in a situation like this once before with my sister, but i'm lucky enough to have her today. She wised up just in time. I wish that were the case here. I'm truely sorry. My heart goes out to you, and your friend is in my prayers.

If you read my poems it may be hard to believe but I used to be in a gang. I got locked up for a year when I was 14 which changed my point of view on a lot of things. I've had many friends lost due to drive bys and overdoses. Even though your friend didn't "get out" or change his ways....you can use your experiences and words to help others. Great write man. Don't stop writing. Your words have power!!

When I read this I heard rapping. And I don't listen to rapping music,isn't that funny. I think it is very good and I can feel your love for this person wanting to help. Gone now, but they had a good person in you.. take care sandy |
