For My Mother On The 13th Day Of May
This is another one of them realness scripts, goin out to my mom, gonna lay this down - make a track for mothers day...
As I begin to write again, with these keys around my neck
I sit and craft this piece of art, for my mother out of respect
Mad love to the number one woman who never passed neglect
Never showed regret, and always gave her best
Taught me to look past brawn, and always use my head
I'm still young, but it's taken me farther than most I'd bet
See we follow in the footsteps that our parents layed down
David may be gone, but I aint forgot that you're still around
If you need me for love, money, moral support - you know I'll be down
Back around town, on familiar ground
Without hesitation, you're half of what I've got left now
Don't give up on me, and I won't give up on you
I know what it's like to lose a son and a brother, it burns through and through
It's true, but we need to move forward, come anew and sieze youth
I'm hangin on to your name, and the thought that you're still here
Don't talk about my problems, but you can bump 'The Sterling Movement' and hear em crystal clear
You may not SEE my tears, but believe me they're here
I deal with fear, unstability, sadness and gloom
And I can feel his presence everytime I walk into his room
As I'm sure you do too
I can't wait to catch him on that journey, round the far side of the moon
But I'm stuck here on earth - I don't live for me anymore
Now I live for you
After all this shit that's happened, don't know how much I got left
I thought that death ran on schedule, but 30, shit that's theft
I'm nearly blank now, you can label me bereft
Cuz there's a thousand pounds of loneliness restin on my chest
I'm lookin to you, help me rise above and make it through this mess
We'll both keep pushin, through one of lifes many tests
And father, take care of your wife, she needs it now the most
You need to throw away those years of distance, and come together close
Let love drown the alcohol, remember : SHE NEEDS YOU NOW THE MOST.
That's real.
