This is from a convo I had with a person who made it seem like just cuz Dayton isn't huge, it ain't the hood

I may not be from New York, Cali
And I damn sure ain't from the dirty
But when the shots get to firin'
I know its about 11:30
Niggas poppin pistols, profit is thier priority
Comin home with bruises courtesy of the red or blue sorority
Outside hours on end just for the fiends
Then the police come around like they got some damn authority
Poppin up with the quickness just so they can check in
But take forever and a day whenever you REALLY fuckin need em'
But the hood we feed them,
Line they pockets they can afford those extra off duty clothes
But that's the way the grimy goes....... i suppose
A boquet where he fell and never arose
Teddy Grams on damn near every corner for a fallen soldier
A woman's scream followed by "I guess they just told her"
50 people got the momma but can't no one console her
Her baby girl is gone cuz her baby daddy put out orders to commode her
Now her face is in the the unsolved file rotting in a manilla folder
She was successful... in to weeks about to graduate
Shit that just takes her graduating class down to 28
Of those 28, 7 are pregnant or well on the way
Only expectin 15 to see a college campus one day
They are now conisdered uppity and degenerate
And for those who don't make it, they can take the system that is negligent
Becase they decided to become a product of their enviorment
And pay section 8 thier $15 rent
Instead of trying to circumvent
We small but the hoods the hood so location shouldn't make a difference..... should it?
Good niggas get hit witht he same bullet
Over the same bad shit
Smart nigga gettin dropped over some dumb bitch
Now lyin in some fuckin ditch
Just cuz this dude's trigger finger itched
So as far as I'm concerned, Dayton is just as shitty
As any other fuckin city
A placed looked at with pity
Where the ones who survive were the smart and the gritty
If you don't believe me.... come live in this bitch with me

RIP- Boo, Kool-aid, Diontae D, Benny, Richard, Kori, Ryan, Ju and ayone else I missed
