RESPONSI-BILL

Poem by @lespoemesdecheikh

Who is responsible ?

I have to respond to bills

Chained since birth, to be free i tried pills

But it don’t work like that

I have to work my ass

To pay every first, been dying of thirst

Pockets holes, no clear goals

The family’s lectures are annoying tasks

I once had lucid dreams of peace and a green land of ease

But again it don’t work like that

I have to work my ass

To break this family curse

Swipe it like migos

Credit cards and loans mi amigos

Some men said fuck it and chose the kilos

But the road for me starts at zero and it don’t matter where you from if you’re broke you’re expected to be a hero.
