Daddy's little soldier

by chritty - Aries



your out on the street
got to make the money
doing it the only way you know how
your daddy’s little soldier
he’s proud of you
your his insurance
his daily income
he’s not worried about your safety
or the fact that you could get killed
just as long as he can sit home and get high on your stash
and not worry about who is going
to pay the rent
thirteen years old out on the street
making money the only way you know how
selling crack and cocaine making daddy proud
your daddy’s little soldier
he doesn’t know the danger your in nor does he care
as long as you make sure your money you share
your mother died when you were six
she tried to raise you right
but daddy changed you all in one night
shot coke up your veins
and made you high
you thought you were going to go insane
you rarely went to school 
and the cops were on your ass 
so of course your father
 thought it was best of you to quit school
that way you could spend all your time dealin
he doesn’t care about you
only the job he forces you to do
he passed the family business down to his youngest son
because older brother is behind bars
you make your old man proud
the only way you know  how
your daddy’s little soldier

Reason for writing:

    my friend Issac grew up in a rough neighborhood and I remember when we were 16 we use to hang out alot at his house and his old man would always be tellin him he needs to stop playin and go out in the streets to deal. He got caught and now he is in prison for five more years and its all his fathers fault if he would get off his ass and go to work
