DRIVE BY
His love for life
showed on his face
His car, his girl
they both had their place
Such a young man
his eyes filled with joy
His mom and dad
loved their only boy
He had a future
a promising life
The girl that he loved
would one day be his wife
That fateful night
would take him away
For in this life

They shot him down
not knowing his name
And his parents now grieve
saying they were to blame
Forever they will be
looking for answers, questioning why
Cut down at the age of seventeen
from a senseless drive by
