Letters From Our Youth

Everything meant anything to me was kept under my bed
Locked away from the world
Photos of you
Letters from our youth
Some cards and cigarettes
I never stole more than I should
Tried to give you the best life I knew I could
I stood idly by while my head in my hands Id cry

What hurts the most is I placed my trust in those
Who let their lives run with fear
And what should have mattered most
I burnt up with the morning toast
But unfortunately when you're the biggest fish
You're the one who gets fried

What ever happen to the brotherhood
A sense of Camaraderie
The big score thats changes life
The code to live by
What happened to if you talk to die
I was foolish to even try

The first breathe of freedom I remember seeing them
A young boy now a grown man my baby girl now teenage
The tears ran down your face as we left the big place
I can't help but to think that a part of my soul stayed there
The ride home home in silence
The awkward moments that followed
The next three years of my life trying to make up for lost time
To lay here idly by
I'm dying as you cry
I'm speechless to tell you I love you one last time
I never got got say goodbye
