    My People

    Just postin this because people be saying I need to write more meaningful stuff so here it is live from the 3rd World.

    My people, they dont hustle, they dont ever gang-bang
    They sit on dirty corners on every block it's the same thing
    Because the poverty stricken houses they live in
    Do not provide the shelter all of us have been given
    A poor worker walkin in traffic sellin candy
    Workin for an industry that just dont find him dandy
    He stops a car and tries to make a fuckin dime
    Only to get rejected and thrown back in the same line
    A dirt boy tryin to quench his thirst
    His mom aint go no money so he expects the worst
    He decides it might be best to steal from some tourist
    But everybody knows nobody cares for the poorest
    From the corrupted government officials tryin to control shit
    They tell their people that we all have a say kid
    But in the end it don't matter, we still gettin robbed
    Wanna start a revolution, a fuckin lynch mob
    For all the Che Guevaras out there sayin that they true
    It's hard to believe that when they dont ever cry too
    I feel the tears that always pour down my cheeks
    Like them little girls beggin for money every week
    The capital maybe growing but my village is still poor
    Wondering whatever happened to the NATO next door
    We still living in the same conditions we grew up with
    We gotta change this shit man we gotta make a shift
    Sooner or later someones gonna start a revolution
    But the feds are all just gonna call it a goddamn restitution

    vocab - 7/10
    lyrics - 7.5/10
    flow - 7.5/10

    nice piece it was deep and had a message like u intended. no line was too long or too short it flowed pretty well. i like your ending it wrapped up the piece. "Workin for an industry that just dont find him dandy" that was the only line that felt forced to me but it was good overall.

    Re: My People

    Good stuff one of the main reasons I liked it as most of the people here would give respects is the fact it had a message and it came from reality like you said.

    My people, they don't hustle, they don't ever gang-bang

    It isn't all about the hustle and gunslinging bullshit.

    I would definitely in the future consider doing a collab whether it be audio or OM.
