    Standing at the bus stop with my mom I watch as crack heads beg for drugs from the local drug dealers that you could find on any corner. One particular crack head caught my eye he was a skinny man with tattered clothes with shoes that had holes in them. I continue to watch since the scene had captured me and my mothers attention for the time being. The drug dealer begins to yell at the poor man.

"Aye!! I told yo ass that I'm not gone give you any nose candy if you don't have the money'' the dealer says sounding irritated.

"Please Jay Roc I need that shit man" the crack head begged while reaching out to touch Jay Roc. Jay Roc bagged back and pulled out his gun and pointed it at the man.

"This my last time telling you to leave or get yo head blown off," Jay Rock says getting serious .

My mother gasps "oh no he's going to kill him right here in front of us" she whispered grabbing on to me in fear.

I've seen a murder happen and it was the worst thing that could happen to me I hope I don't witness another one today.

"Okay okay I'm gone please don't kill me," the crack head said quickly as he turned around to leave.

I let go of a breath I didn't know I was holding and turned toward my mom.

My mom sighed with relief "Baby I promise we gone make it out this hell hole okay" she said in a promising tone.

"Okay mommy," I said looking at the city bus that was pulling up to us still have the feeling something was gone happen.

Once on the bus, I decided to listen to music pulling out my iPod I went to Jhene Aiko - bed peace.

"Wake up

Wake up

Gotta get this paper, get this cake up

Gotta do my hair, gotta put on makeup

Gotta act like I care about this fake stuff

Straight up

What a waste of my day

If I had it my way, I'd roll of bed, say

'Bout 2:30 midday

Hit the blunt then hit you up to come over to my place

You show up right away

We make love,

And then we fuck

And then you'd give me my space

What I am trying to say is the love is ours to make, so we should make it

Everything else can wait the time is ours to take, so we should take it

Wake up

Wake up

Bake up

Gotta heat the vape up let's get faded

Gotta call your job tell em' you won't make it

Ain't nobody here baby, let's get wasted we should just get nake-

Someone tapped me on my shoulder causing me to take out my headphones and look up it was my mother telling me our stop was coming up and to get ready to get off the bus.
