And so i find myself burying another brother that ive known all my life over violence... but this time its alot closer to home... Ive know Chad for 16 years... when i moved the 80's he was 1 of the 1st people i met... everybody knew Chad, we called em' "WHITE BOY" cuz he was the only white kid that grew up with us... but it didnt matter because he was one of us... he liked black girls like we did, he had the same struggles we did, he faced all the situations that we did. Honestly throughout the 80's almost everybody i knew was coo' wit Chad, they who he was, and knew that he kept to himself for the most part.

This shit fuckin bothers my soul because even though i no longer have this friend... i feel like the shit is in vein cuz people refuse to learn from situations like this!... this shit is a never spiral of violence thats sucking more than just the victims into it... but the families, children, and friends are also affected as well.

To WHITE BOY i want to say... we all loved you like a brother, and i swear i never thought the next time i seen you it would be my last, but you will be missed... them 89-00 boys shine 4ever!

maaaan, i dont even know what else to write..........................
