It's about a short black kid (probably around 5'6 feet tall) growing up in a middle class neighborhood ('was a nice middle class N!$$^!"). He feels inadequate because he's short, so he start acting out. Also he's not liked by other kids and probably girls either. He doesn't feel he's man enough since he's middle class short and black. He joins a gang, gets suspended from school because he keeps breaking the rules, and then starts committing violent crimes. He finds comfort hanging out with his gang friends who show him respect and love, which he's not getting anywhere else. Eventually he crosses paths with another black kid who's much harder and much taller than him ("standing 6'5") and the taller kid shoots or stabs the smaller kid for some reason. It's sad...
