    Amazing! What really drew me to this poem was your title, i saw it and i just had to read it. I'm currently reading a gang story right now and i found it really ironic that i found this poem as well lol! Its truly well done! Your flow was also well done!

    This has got to be the first gang poem i've even read and its great! I have also written some gang poems, but i haven't posted em up yet LOL! i should do that soon! ye ye!

    Ne wayz your poem is beautifully written and has such meaning behind it.

    I really liked the lines:

    "I was born into this life of crime
    But to those who aren't
    Need know one thing

    We don't chose this life; it choses us
    And yeah at times its fun
    But that all ends when you see a gun"

    Those lines are so powerful and truthful that I wanted to say DAMN STRAIGHT! Kudos man, you a great writer! Never stop writing! 5/5

    Great poem! Thef low is flawless and I love the format-Each line is short and it makes the poem easy to read. I love the end when you wrote how you dont choose life-life chooses you. So True! Amazing write---Keep it up! 5/5
