Expect the Unexpected
I tried to pretend that I wasn't affected, but it hurt me deep because it was so unexpected.
They were banging the door.
Nearly knocked the shit down.
Outside all I saw were vehicles with the police siren sound.
They were all around.
Took you away that day.
My mother flooded her eyes with tears and fears.
I was 15.
I didn't even know what to say.
Since that day I was like fuck the police because they just do not give a damn.
For these motherfuckers brought the k-9 dogs and destroyed everything they can.
That was the same year my dad got locked in prison, got my first official girlfriend, and smoked weed.
The same year I finished 8th grade and started high school.
But we.
My family.
Had issues that no one knew.
Inside I was so angry.
This wasn't right.
It felt all wrong.
I tried and I tried.
To move the fuck on.
But I couldn't believe that they took my father from me.
And lord knows i cried.
Here and there from time to time.
and yet I barely wrote him letters.
because I didn't wanna endure the pain.
and the thought that life will never be the same.
see i began to change.
i began to grow.
as a teen in this cold world.
the hurt just got so old.
so i blocked it with the lifestyle that i chose.
i was wild and reckless i suppose.
there are many things about me that not everybody knows.
and might just never will.
unless i have the beans to spill.
and i always have a story to tell because life is nothing but library full of books.
but in life.. everybody sees them, but not everybody looks.
and everybody eats, but not everybody cooks.
