Boston Kids

just came up excuse mistakes

In the slums of Boston 

All one can see is havoc

Kids smoking,drinking,pulling triggers

Little girls engaging in sexual content

Babys with Mommas who are only fifteen

Drastic but no one really ever told these kids whats up

Didn't know right from wrong

So who' to blame for their bad luck

They say "school isn't for me"

so when they went job searching not even burger king would hire them

so they aspire to sell drugs because there is no age limit,and you don't need a degree just a scale and baggies 

Hustlers at the age of fourteen,but some didn't even get to see fifteen

and their moms are stressing because there babies been dropped 6ft deep

They cant sleep, cry for there dead kids,asking God what went wrong?

When she knows, she was never there to stop her son from doing wrong
