It's Raining Again...

The rain poured onto the dark streets of Atlanta. Even at night the streets would still steam up. It was always hot here. Them billows of steam created a never ending swamp or so it would seem. It was just that this swamp swarmed with big buildings and urban culture instead of old oak trees and gaters. How much difference is there really between the two though? I tell ya, they both believe in respect, both believe in money and they both love they hometowns. Born and raised in the back woods as opposed to being born and raised in back alleys—that’s about all the difference. The kids in the woods, they play with snakes, while them in the city they prefer playing with needles they find. Them country folk they shoot for fun, but then again so do them city folk.
