Baltimore Unknown

Baltimore Unknown

Some may say the later you find out the better.

While others prefer to know right away.

To know about the unofficial grave sites that nobody is looking for.

The bodies that rot without knowledge,

Or the amber alerts that never reach our phones.

What happens to the black families slowly losing hope?

The mothers calling a phone that will never be answered.

The men that have been missing for months before we ever know what happened.

Those things we never see on the news but on Murder Ink

The children waiting to be found,

Wanting their Mommy or Daddy.

Not knowing what is going to happen to them.

Still didn’t get that Amber Alert though.

Months go by, sometimes years and they’re forgotten by the world.

That is until they turn up dead then everyones sad again.

The unheard is always worse than the heard.

The bleeding is just a side effect of the wound.

The silence is only proof that they don’t care.

The children suffer because of our ignorance.

Fathers are lost because it seems that the world don’t care.

Wounded families that covers the city.

Drowning us in blood.
