Poetry: Chiraq

I'm from the city of the Chi
Where I used to reside
Gunshots every night
A war zone, no lie
Excuse me for a minute
I gotta keep it real wit mines
Don't forget, you can't rep that 6 without 5
Gang life in my city
Has built a divide
Dudes is drawing they trey's
Because he reppin' a seis
Every cinco de mayo
Somebody getting sprayed
Are my people liable
To take responsibility for what they say?
On the block, selling rocks
In any weather
If you don't remember this poem
I'll leave you with something clever
You can't win the war
If you ain't fighting together
