I know I took for granted the short time we had togetherwish I could talk to you now, I need more than everpeople said that you'd be proud of the man I've becomethat I turned out so good considering where I came frombut last time I checked, the character don't pay the renti work hard for a check then its already spentits like I'll never get a hand and have the nice things in lifesometimes I wish I could just call you up to ask for advicebecuase you know I love this music, I've been rhyming for yearsi got an archives of songs that no one will ever hearthe fear of failure, enough to keep me downso I don't even try to pass my demo aroundits like im no one with nothing, im going nowherei know you in a better place, sometimes I wanna go thereits no fair you had to leave me when I needed you mostall we had was eachother, that's why we were so closeand Ma, when ya left ya took a piece of my soul
I had to learn the hard way how life is so coldbut at least you prepared me back when I was younghow to avoid peer pressure and the danger of drugsand because you were truthfull and you weren't ashamedof the mistakes that you made, I'll never do the samebut I blame myself we didn't spend more time togetherthe pain of your loss is something I'll suffer foreverim sorry for your last days, how miserable I made itbut I love you to this day, and you were appreciatedi miss you mom, I love you.
