I resist

My life is slow but I need speed
As I write these words, I bleed
Gotta hang on, gotta stay but
one day winds will blow me away
This world is dark and getting darker
by the hour. Some people hide,
they cower. Afraid of those who
are in power. I'm not like that,
I resist, I refuse and it don't
matter to me if I lose.
At least I did what I could
to remain where I am, in this
motherfucking neighborhood.
