SOMETHING TO BELEIVE IN....
I dont wanna die, i wanna fly like a bird, write words,that, touch many herds of people, the people are struggle and striving, in this cold world, i see the pain in the eyes of a little girl, cos her daddy got smoked last night, two shots rang out, and daddy passed into the light, its like a crisis, red alert signs in my iris, third world kids waging war for rice, its a bad dream, and we aint gonna wake, till its over, dying of exaustion, we work like trojans, all for what?, so we can wake up, and do it again, witness kids with drugs and mack tens, its a....Harsh reality, but true none the less, i made it to my twenty forth birthday, im blessed, i see these mums, holding sons, lying in the street bleeding, hope is what we're needing, give me something to beleive in, IF THIS BE MY LAST DAY BREATHING, WONT YA' GIVE ME SOMTHING TO BELEIVE IN, MY GOD, IF THIS BE MY LAST DAY BREATHING, WONT YA', GIVE ME SOMETHING TO BELEIVE IN!!!

Hi Yosh,
I read this and immediately thought "Eminem." It has the same immediacy and observational qualities, and a message that is universally indentifiable. I agree with what Mike says, in that sometimes the more subtle a message is, the more powerful it becomes. There are some cliches here, but I don't think that's always a bad thing - when you are talking to the people it's more effective to use the people's language. I would like to see you perform this - with the passion that obviously fuels your writing. The best of yours I've yet seen. Bravo!
Regards,
A.E.
