for no good reason at all
you blamed me for wasting
the joint we were smoking
and taking everything
for granted in a very mean
city where we could easily
get killed after our parents
died and we had no place
to call home, something;s
got to give in order for me
to wait for miracles
as my mind clears
and my life is saved.
