"Maturity Levels"

"Maturity Levels": from Poem book : Married to the DEVIL (2014)

--- With success comes certain sacrifice ,
with duty comes a sense of responsibility   /
With maturity come greater intelligence,  
that's why the Lord spared me from death in the Streets   /
--- To be a leader of others...  
Shepherd who leads his people into a better life   /
Not a ignorant Nigga with a death wish,
who's only concerned with how his clothes look at the Bar, Friday nights   //
--- It could of been ME.............
to fall victim of certain circumstance    /
It could of been my mother  who cried over a casket,
then turned to Alcohol -&- Drugs to cope with the way FATE dealt her a bad hand   /
---- If a rose can grow from weeds...
thru concrete and gravel /
I can survive thru the hell of the ghetto,
then bloom into similar beautiful rose petals    //

From my 6th Poem book : "Married to the DEVIL" (2014)
