Dear –
Thanks a lot buddy for goin through all the trouble of getting —‘s information for me. I sure do hope they allow her to get my letter. I know she’s probably wondering if I’m going to try and contact her…I know how the system works. They try their best to keep us down…
Hope you enjoy the poem.
Sincerely,
Ghost
Hombres Muerto Caminando
From the moment
We come out
The very second
That we’re born
We’re placed in
An environment
That we have
To get it on
Our own
They make it
Impossible
To go about it
The legal way
Now we got
A gun
And you wanna
Know why it’s
In your face
You didn’t give us
A chance at life
To start with
We were set up
From the beginning
Dead men walking
Land of the free
These politicians
Are insane
Dumb motherfuckas
You’re enslaving your
Own kind
Change the saying
Fuck the Middle East
There’s terrorism
In these American streets
Innocent people gunned down
By our own police
Many lost souls
Forced towards
The prison system
To sleep
Locked down on by
The leaders
Of our country
But from the moment
We were born
We were destined to be nothing more than
Dead men walking.
