Bloodstains filled with white chalk
Victims of a winless game
Candles on the sidewalk
Mother tries to hide her pain
Body in a pine box
Now just memories and a name
A struggle for survival
The only thing I trust is my aim
With these two fists and a full clip
I've lasted longer than I thought
An uphill battle on all fronts
Nobody safe, until it's been won
How do you expect me to stop
When peace of mind was never an option
Years of bitterness towards what my truth is
Raised into a life that's so ruthless
Forced into delinquency, begging for more
Violence was the only way for us
Broken since my infancy, born into war
Silence was my only prayer response
Born into war
