    The Streets are Sleeping

    The streets might be sleeping but still eating
    Competing and depleting cos no one’s retreating
    It just keeps repeating like a sports meeting
    Except cheating’s allowed as part of the beating
    Cos Its just about defeating the opposite side
    So you can lie, ride a drive-by, until one of you dies
    The streets stay the same, another relative cries
    Why?… Are dry eyes not better than goodbyes
    Bricks and mortar aren’t alive, its people that is
    So let the streets sleep, while heart beats live
    Give a shit, don’t give shit, yea that’s the biz
    Commiserations aren’t good, it fucks the hood
    Draw up an amnesty instead of drawing blood
    It would make life easier for the majority within
    So lets eradicate sin and bring a grin to the chin
    Then everyone wins, violin’s will cease to play
    And our days will be brighter, lighter like a sun ray
    The only prey will be bovine, a beef buffet
    So obey your morals, don’t quarrel with others
    Treat men as brothers, don’t be haters, be lover’s
    Yea, we need to discover a new way of living
    Or one day there’ll be no where to play for our children

    I liked this piece in one way but didnt like it in another way.
    I think the concept was deep and you put good emotion into the words you didnt go crazy with the vocabulary which i like cause i hate when you read a piece and it just has big words all the way through it for no reason.
    You made some good points in the piece espically the last 2 lines i really felt that line cause its actually true.
    The thing i didnt like about this piece was the flow youve been on this site long enough so i suspect you know what flow means it was just weak there was no multies or internals to grab my attention.
    Im not saying my pieces are great but i always mix in a shit load of multies and internals which i think makes a verse sound smoother if you do audios.
    Like i said it was a good piece but would of been better if you upped the flow.

    Check my last post out tell me what you think id appeciate the comments:

    Pretty dope peice.

    Emotional thats for sure, but at times the multis seemed a little forced and it seemed as if there was too many of them. Rhyme scheme was on point and nice. Flow was nice except for some lines, nothing major. A dope peice overall.

    Original concept and such, so yeah, nice peice.

    pretty basic, but it flowed well and was cool overall, some simple lines in there that werent amazing but you did what you wanted to do and thats what matters. next time try to use a bigger vocab if possible, maybe swicth up the rhyme scheme a bit so it wont be repetitive. pz

    yo can you hit me up with some feedback on this please.
