Shadow Days <br />Cold In The Dark <br />Shallow Ways <br />Violence Sparks <br /> <br />On our way <br />To local store, <br />When someone sprays <br />And makes it pour <br /> <br />Pouring like metal rain <br />Swirvin through the lanes <br />The ages of 2-10 <br />Is traumatic to say the least <br /> <br />An addict of a father <br />Watch him turn into a fiend <br />We've bared our eyes on scenes <br />We're aware by age 13 <br />That it's make it by any means <br /> <br />MLK was never round the X. <br />Yet both were ideally taking the same test. <br />Never abbreviated on dotted lines <br />For that reason <br /> <br />Haven't You seen the result of violence enough? <br />Showin ya tuff <br />Like Snow In The Bluff <br />Niggas quick to play cards <br />No one's showin a bluff. <br /> <br />Patience and Confidence, A virtue <br />Carry those in life, and nobody will hurt you <br />What the f*ck is a curfew? <br />Established just to only cure few. <br /> <br />Yet, We have the power to save the world <br />Save a girl, <br />You save a mom. <br />You let her fold, <br />The world turns cold. <br /> <br />Shallow Days... <br />We've Been Getting Cold In The Dark.<br /><br />Marcus Blanco<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/cold-in-the-dark/
