Poem by Aisha

Living a life full of hurt pain and shock, begging and selling for a £20 rock

Acting out a different life to make it seem fulfilling

Gotta change this life around, Gotta be willing

In and out through the system of the courts

Everyone telling me I’ve got to be taught

A lesson or two so I do no wrong

And do what I’m doing

Put thoughts in a song

So all of you that thought I couldn’t do it

And thought I was going to keep chasing that hit

I’m over that now, I’ve got the power

No more dark clouds and full blown showers.
