::no title for this one:: the fires in Cali

like anger raging

demolation

houses struck

people praying

on the move

there’s no delaying

no where to go

“where are we staying?”

i hate the news

crying constantly

cause of what they going thru

fire is ruthless

better get moving

we close our eyes

but this is what truth is

you can extinguish the fire

but dreams have been burned

walking thru rubble

that was once a home

and it could very well be us

maybe next we’ll take our turn

so i’ll start praying now

how we take care of this??

its more destruction

Katrina came thru years ago

and we still reconstructing

so from this

how do we rise??

people dont even know whats going on

no sympathy in their eyes

but it doesn’t come as a surprise

no one in this nation cares

we’re on the other side of the country

so i guess their issues remain over there

and i fear

cause when something hits our homes

we’ll expect others to care??

this is insane

an entire state

going up in flames

and theres nothing they can do

so they run

and the mayhem has only just begun

cause reality is

they’ll still be building houses back up

in years to come
