Burnt Bridges by Monica H. Thomas

How many bridges you gone burn before you learn the streets don’t give a damn about you…
Have you ever witnessed ya own death
Blood stains scattered on the ground
People screaming and hollering amongst the siren sound
How you died ya don’t know that
The way you live there’s a price to pay
Death will knock on ya door it don’t give a damn where you stay
As soon as ya soul departs ya body there goes the Grim Reaper
He’s waiting to escort ya soul straight to Hell
Where ya boys now?
Where’s all that My Brother’s Keeper?
You was a bad seed you had no ambitions at all
You’ve been getting into trouble every since you’d learned to crawl
The streets raised you up and taught ya how to be a man
You’d gotten ya self in too…
