Boogie Down Bronx

1

Fast money, drug money, cold nights, selling white. That's what I do but nobody can and nobody will ever know. The Bronx isn't no place to play. You stay in your business you won't be somebody else's. I've been on my own sense I was 15. My mom up and left me and my older sister because she was on drugs and couldn't look us in our eyes.

My sister be everywhere she knows I can handle myself but she's here for me sometimes I mean our apartment is in her name but she's just hardly here.

I think thats why I'm so cold hearted because nobody had me like I had me.

I always had to get it on my own and I never depend on nobody at all because the disappointments I suffered in life already as a 17 year old.

But I know the game of the streets so don't try to fool me. I haven't graduated yet but don't try to school me. And I might look like a thirst trap but I'm smarter then you think.

My neighborhood is separated based off race one side is the blacks and the other side is the latinos. Thats one thing that sucks my apartment is on the latino side because I'm half and half so I feel like I'm in the middle.

My mother is Dominican and Puerto Rican while my dad was just black. He left my mom after she had me I'm guessing having 3 girls to take care of was too much for him so he hit the road and dipped.

I don't trip like I said I got myself I don't need nobody else but myself.

As I walk threw my neighborhood people know who I am and they know what I'm about but they don't know my life at all.

I hear them cat calling at me when I be walking to school early in the mornings.

Rudy is the biggest drug lord in our neighborhood and I don't pay him no attention I have my own problems going on and I don't have time for nobody else's especially him.

Rudy's got people killed and he handles them all himself. I see his little hoes with him while he be eyeing me as I'm walking home.

I hear him call my name "Ma'Liyah!" He yells from far away I could hear his strong puerto rican accent. But I don't give in I just keep walking forward till I get to my house.

I'm not going to lie Rudy is cute he just has to much on him plus I'm to young for him way to young he 21 that wouldn't work but I don't want him in my life.

He has a nice olive skin color but when ever the sun comes out at like the summer time he turns to a golden raisin color just pure beauty.

I never seen his eyes up close and personal but some girls from school always talk about him whenever they buy drugs from him saying his eyes stand out the most because they a hazel color you get lost in them.

And his height I'm guessing he about 6'2 he isn't too tall or too short either. His hair is in a afro with very large curls and and a nice line up.

He always wears jewelry like his necklace with a cross on it and his watch with diamonds in it.

He's at the top then any of us and he lives in this raggedy place I call my neighborhood.

I'm not going to fall in his little traps or nothing I'm going to do me that's it that's all.....
