It's Helloween night - A Poem By Paradise Gray

It's Helloween night, it's a Hell of a sight
In the hood when the freaks come out at night.
Monsters and ghouls embodied by fools
In the shadows and the alleys of shut down schools
Doing the Devils work carrying the Devils tools
In waist bands "Glocks", to protect Hell's rocks
Snaps and fiends are like zombies as they walk the blocks
The Vampires don't suck necks here, they suck c*cks
A buck fifty to your face, snatch your jewels that's fake
looks like Freddie Kruger slashed you, and you was wide awake
or so you thought, the American dream has turned into a nightmare,
Nobody fights fair, you have no rights here
Haunted crack houses missing windows and stairs
Helloween is one long night, 365 days of fear round here
Devils night, Devils night, What A Hell of a night
Get money, get money, there's no wrong or right
Our morals get lost when the money gets tight
Razor blades in the apples, poison the candy
They give to the children, Devils night how dandy
Sweet treats to rot teeth or Turn tricks for nose treats,
If you run to the church you'll have to run from the priests
Run to your bedroom, hide under the sheets
But you'll never escape the evil that's under your bed
Redd up Pittsburgh, Red, Red, Red!
