I just arrived from court and was given 5 years.

I took a look at my mom and all I seen was tears.

I sit behind glass and only 5 months done.

Really missing home and my times just begun.

I reach for mom and feel nothing but glass.

Tears roll down my eyes and time will slowly pass.

Just as everyone else I hate this position.

If this were a book I’d wish jail was non fiction.

But I did my crime so I’ll do my time.

I don’t want kids losing their lives as I lost mine.

I want you to know that education is the key to freedom.

I lived the gang life and ended up losing my freedom.

I didn’t go to school and choose the hood over family.

That was the wrong choice.

Now I only receive letters from my family.

I lived my teenage life so now you live yours.

Just remember one thing, stay away from gang wars.
