I wrote this a minute ao sitting on the steps in Cabrini about 1997-I was just released to parole, it began as a compliation of some of the stuff I wrote in prison. I finished the second verse in 2000 after they tore Cabrini Green down, sitting on the steps of a newly erected town home near where I remember they shot my guy Six Pack. I found the song again in January after my son died and finalized it and decided to make a practice version-which is what this is... just to get the verses in my head.
