Stories from the Gutter

So you remember when they broke into the house? Mama

crying in the kitchen, hand covering her mouth. My baby sister

scared too, she don’t know what’s this about. So that night all

three of us, we all slept on the couch. Reporting live from hell.

These are stories from the gutter. Life’s a bitch and she don’t

care if you love her. Been through hell and I ain’t worried.

Double back like Jesus, just to tell my story. Ever seen your

mama scrape the last piece of food off your plate? Apologizing

cause we poor, should’ve seen the look on her face. These are

stories from the gutter.
