Shaunta’s Rage: The Boy Ain’t Yours
In Ferguson’s streets, where tempers collide,
Shaunta Crosby let her fury ride.
Over a man, love turned to crime,
Now her name’s etched in the headlines’ rhyme.
North Florissant Road, the chase took flight,
Shaunta rear-ended the victim that night.
South Florissant gas station, the feud burned hot,
She rammed her car again, gave it all she’s got.
Second-degree assault, property damage too,
Shaunta stepped out, fists flew.
The victim stood, but the pain ran deep,
Over a man who wasn’t hers to keep.
$25K bond, the bars now bind,
Shaunta Crosby, love made you blind.
The boy ain’t yours, but the charges are real,
Behind those bars, time won’t heal.
