What the Street Taught Me

What the Street Taught Me

By Diajay Carter

 

My life experiences taught me to be real

about everything.

That’s what I learned from the Street.

Stay out of trouble

be real about what you gonna do

when tragedy strikes.

It took this little boy

my little brother

getting shot in front of my face

for me to realize:

That’s life on this Street.
