Seeds Planted In My City

In my City When they say they will kill you It's prudent to do Believe them and keep the distance Because They really mean it And I am from my city But I got heart, tears, and poetry So you best believe me When I say I will shoot you I will I have to do it But At least I will cry later And say no one needs to die like this And the government should do something on the streets All the wasted youth are looking at you all the children of my city Are being planted like seeds In a desert with no oasis So in my city It's best to listen When they say they will kill you Keep your distance and your faith.
