LOOKING BACK ON THE MANY OBSTACLES IN LIFE,
SOME THINGS I JUST DIDN’T DO RIGHT,
IN AND OUT OF TROUBLE, THAT’S HOW THINGS WENT,
THAT WAS MY LIFE, THAT IS HOW IT WAS SPENT.
NEVER HOLDING ON TO ANYTHING, IN FACT,
I THOUGHT MY LIFE WAS IN TACT.
DIDN’T SEEM AS IF ANYTHING WAS WRONG,
WHEN ONE SITUATION CAME I HANDLED IT STRONG.
COULDN’T FIGURE OUT WHY I HAD SO MANY, UNTIL,
THAT ONE NIGHT I HEARD MY MOM CRYING, IT WAS CHILL.
SHE WAS PRAYING FOR ME, HER SON,
AND EVERYTHING SHE WAS PRAYING FOR DIDN’T SOUND LIKE ME, UNTIL…
I FELT HER PAIN, IT WAS REAL.
SHE SPOKE ON ONE THING, IT TOOK ME BACK,
TO ONE OF THE HARDEST TIMES IN MY LIFE, A HELLACIOUS TRACK.
FILLED WITH STRIFE, MISERY, PAIN,
AND ALL OUT NOTHING TO GAIN.
RESPECT WASN’T WORTH IT,
WORRIES IN MY MOM’S LIFE JUST DIDN’T FIT.
SHE CONTINUED, EYES FILLED WITH GRIEF,
HER LAST PRAY, FOR GOD TO TURN A NEW LEAF.
MOM IS
