Life for an African American male is rough.
Life for an African American male is tough.
Life is like running up and down stairs because there’s no elevator.
Life is like walking a 1000miles because there’s no transportation.
Life is like being all alone because there’s no one there.
Life is like being left abandoned because no one cares
Life is like a war zone with no ending.
Life is harsh and deep like the deep blue sea.
Life is sometimes useless because we use it for all the wrong reasons.
Life is the beginning of some one’s ending.
What will you do about the life you live?
Will you be the change you wish to see in the world?
Will you make a change in somebody’s life?
Will you leave positive impacts on younger children?
