Fly Away By My Son

Rap from my son that he put into music.  He was murdered, but his music still lives.  Typed the way he left it.  You can hear him on Sound Cloud under Brooks Greenlee.

Once upon a time not long ago, I was so damn lost i not a shred of hope
i didn’t have a home, nowhere to hide, felt like drowning myself in the tears i cried
there you were never showing your fears, he tore your heart out with wasted years
love disappeared then reappeared, cause when i saw you is when i saw clear
you had a man who you still loved
who didn’t see that you’re worth so much
more than the game of hustlin drugs 
you were never enough he ended up locked up
i had a heart that was badly beaten
so many holes in it felt defeated
never would’ve saw the day that you came
singlehandedly put back together the pieces

i took your hand, no words were spoken
we laid in bed and laid our hearts open
made love for the first time that night
never in my life has something felt so right
i could fly away 
just fly away
you showed me the way
to a brighter day
lets fly away

how do you define forever, do you know where it begins
can you grasp the concept of eternity
of life and of love without end
what does forever mean to you, what would you do to achieve it
what lengths would you go to discover the meaning, do you even truly believe it
what forever means to me is something very indeed realistic
beginning with one single moment and a lifetime of being reminiscent
try to recreate that perfect emotion or feeling that you had in the past
for us forever starts tonight baby girl, i won’t let the world have you back

i took your hand, no words were spoken
we laid in bed and laid our hearts open
made love for the first time that night
never in my life has something felt so right
i could fly away 
just fly away
you showed me the way
to a brighter day
lets fly away

i was so lost but now i’ve been found, cause you came in and saved my life
my undying love for you is so profound and for you i will always fight
one by one earn your trust and earn your admiration soon i’ll prove what we have is fate
i’m still lost in a state of pure fascination all the passion we have yet to make
even though it took so damn long and lookin back at all those years that have passed us by
all the times that we were wrong all along so many times that we lived a lie
now we’re fully exploring each other’s mind and body soaring through a velvet sky
we can spread our wings there’s nothing else to stop me from showing you how to fly
