Concrete jungles

Concrete jungles

Out of place with blown

Chunks of stone strewn about

A black face painted or not

And if only I'd known

I would've broken the lock that

Said the streets were the place

I'd rock like a boulder

They stood in my way

And I only grew colder

I shouldered something heavier

Than a holster for a 99mm

Weapon of decimation

Anywhere but the streets is

My only destination

You'll find me

Deep in my concentration

Anxious but clearly patient

Waiting actively

To break all these

Chains that shackle me

And I'm aiming to be king

To escape the concrete jungles

And this world

Where I don't belong....
