What if?

What if daddy stayed with mommy?
what if we had a place to go instead of the streets
what if i can get a job instead of standing on this corner with rocks in my socks
what if that little girl had a voice to shout?
what if she had a reason for living instead of seeing sex as a reason for making a living
what if they found a reason to live instead of a choice to die?
what if the schools cared?
what if cops didn't run, cuff, and beat just cause of our color?
what if the underground raised above?
what if he was shown love instead of hate?
what if he didn't pull the trigger?
what if bush wasn't elected?
what if jay-z stopped yelling nigger?
what if ghetto's aren't filled with death and poverty?
what if rappers stopped flapping there jaws and began speaking to the mind?
what if the drug dealers stopped and became business men?
what if the drug addicts froze and saw the true solution instead of the high?
what if those girls saw the dream of dancing before they see the pole
what if these kids saw the bible before they get hit with the book
what if they found truth instead of these lies that are told?
what if they were told they were beautiful before they were told they didn't exist?
what if we all found our place and gave up what hurts?
WHAT IF????
