Kai'isha

Kai'isha had dreams

she wasn't some girl from the ghetto

she had plans for her future

she saw what happened to her 

big sister (if you can call her a sister at all)

she saw her slip sideways

landing on the streets

jus' like Mama told her

but she didn't listen

she never listened

Neither did my

baby brother 

the one I raised 

nights when 

Mama never

came home 

no more 

now that 

R'Kell had 

gone

He was

but a child 

who never 

had a chance

God just 

picked him

up with that 

random bullet 

and took him 

home early

but me

I gotta 

make 

somethin'

out of my

life

I know 

I can

If I believe

and I do 

believe.

Other

wise...
