Slain
July 11, 2014
We were so naive
To believe
we would get justice
We were so dumb
To think
That we would get out of this slum
You say my name
We remain
In this horrible place
Watching my city burn
Felt like getting hit by a train
To leave is all I yearn
Feeling the fire blaze
Just continued the pain
My feelings have been slain
