In our neighbourhood there are gangs and fights /
We know that stuff is just not right /
Some people get shout and killed around /
Sometimes in the night we hear those sounds /
What's scary is that might be our childhood memories /
We have to get out of our nightmares and into a fantasy /
But Serve helps us turn it around /
That's what I've found
