My City

Philly is my city
And I'm not looking for any petty
But we really need to take back streets.
Everyone wants to play the blame game,
When reality this shit is so lame.
Not to name names city officials don't care about nothing but their fame.
Meanwhile drug dealers came and claim their fame to our streets.
Instead of raising to or feet.
We sit silent in our seats giving in to defeat.
Babies are dying
While mother are crying
This can't be fun
But yet nothing is being done
The crazy thing is the drama for my city has just begun
We look with one eye open
I guess hoping this is one big bad dream.
And when we wake everything will be peaches and cream.
I don't mean to sound so mean.
But when are we going to stop playing the victim.
And come together as a team.
I'm wondering what will it take before we get the violents to stop.
I still remember when my friend mother said she heard the pop.
Then moments later her daughter body dropped.
The sad part is Angel didn't receive any help from the cops.
But one day we will learn how to my city of "Brotherly Love" to return

R.I.P Angel and anyone who has died due crime in my city or any other city
