[Adonis]

Daniel was born, June of 86'
Mother jailed as baby weans and kicks,
Endless scream's rejoiced,
Lungs labor each breathe in a gurgling noise,
A premature birth; a scratch and claw escape,
Grasping dear life every second he's awake,
Every breathe intake is pure oxygen filled,
Pipes fastened and sealed, an apparatus of gills,
Assistance to live.. How pathetic,
Divine existence... Not even Doctors take credit.


The courts only see the problem, never the reason,
He's fifteen and piecin', a rep together with ease, and...
He's bouncing house to house...System owned,
Thick skin grown as a family he's never known,
Little Daniel, a handful, such a problem child,
While his friends aren't different in their styles,
Each with a bad heart, his good if not for a murmur,
Born in the dumps and that was just a precursor.

He changed his ways, living to please a mother he loved,
Not biological, but still cared for him much,
Daniel went from failing to honor roll,
Arrests and protests to such a grander mold,
Years pass and this collegiate affiliate..
Still sported Red and had a lean when he walked with a cigarette...

"What you doing down here boy, the damn nerve,
Best pray to your god, cuz tonight your bed's the curb".


Froze in fear as he back peddles from cripts,
"I don't bang" as the metal sang a tune,
And I would have got away with it too,
If it weren't for you...

Meddling kids.
