My cousins will forever be in a moment they'll never forget/
10 and 8 now with the lost of a generation's information/
I wondered what you would say to me on those days that I went on stage/
Twice in April but only once in May/
To me it felt like the ground would shake/
And the audience's face/
Would be replaced with a look of "I know that ain't what he rehearsed to say"/
We always wondered why you called everyone Mary/
I wanted to ask you each time but seeing you in that bed all day that shit ain't safe for me/
Especially since I know you ain't the type to be lazy/
You were the most energetic person that I've ever seen/
Ready to do whatever you needed to keep ya family from being/
Extinguished by any means/
A legacy born from abuse, drugs, rape, break ups, destruction, and secrets/
You held the family tight like teenage kids when they're wearing their new kicks/
Raised my mother to be who she is today/
This feelin...it came from you....your death/
But in my mind you're there in the organ sitting on the left side of my chest/
You been there for me and helped through my hardships/
Taught me how to put up with the shit/
Only if you can see who I came to be with all your advice clicks/
And dips/
Frozen trips/
That could make my spinal chord sick/
May be the reason of why I'm cold/
You held on tighter than my skin while I'm wearing wet clothes/
The power you hold/
Is limitless and untold/
2010 the year you were taken away and your tendency still didn't unfold
