whentalkingisntenough

I lived a pretty good childhood
Considering the fact that i lived in one of the most dangerous city in the US
I rest my head in camden nj
My parents tried their best to keep me occupied but the streets were calling me
I had to explore
I got to see the good and bad of life

I remember one day i was walking home from school and I saw what looked like a body hanging from the dumpster.
Like a dummy i went to get a little closer to make sure my eyes were correct
Yea it was a man
The smell of blood damn near killed my nose
In his hand he held a needle....
Need I say more

I remember they shot in my house.
My mother was layin on the couch and I was in my room upstairs
Randomly somebody just started shooting

One time I was coming home with my mom aunt and cousin
As we open up the fron door I saw a red light
A cop possibly SWAT
Yea I think it was SWAT cause he had on so much stuff like not an actual police uniform
He had on a halmet
He told us to get down on the ground
I didnt know what was goin on!
When i got on the ground I could see into my neighboors yard and a man was hiding under a van.
I think he was hiding from the cops or SWAT
The man hiding started to move
And then he started running
All the cops started yelling
Red lights were everywhere
A gun that had a skinny extending burrow or something with a red light on it
I cant really explain it well cause I was only 12 when this happen but all I could remember was the red light

It makes me sick to my stomach to be immune to the sounds of guns
But I guess people cope with the unreal

I remember being about 10 years old
I went with my cousin to find his mom
When went into the old house
Which now i know was a crack house
It was the first time I seen base heads
Begging for more
Dying for just another hit
I think something in me died that day
Something along the lines of fear
We found his mom all cracked out
Man it was ugly
Her eyes were yellow
Lips purple with white shit on them
Man I think that shit scared the fear out of my ass
So when talking isnt enough then what...
Im talkin yall so is anybody listin?
