Rememberance

Thank God for beautiful timing, Thank God for grind and lovely
Thank God for passing test, Thank God for shining ugly

Im still hungry, whether to sacrifice for the family or a for stunting which is a good reason
Spread ends so my Sister Joyce even though she hated, just know that its aint no treason

Feel me moving swiftly quickly leaving the past so we can live happy 
Remember Scotty rippy, remember they shot my brother Moe pappy

Remember they tried to trap me, 
turned the other cheek when they come to slap me

No need to cry and be sadly, 
baby I’m living gladly 
I never had no daddy, but I can thank the lord
Jesus Christ come swiftly with that double edged sword

forbidden fruit plus bread stuck in the room
In this one man cell yeah baby just me and my troops

Holding hands with the blessing got you felling your essence 
Give me some passion and some presents, Lord in my life let your spirit stay present

Big brother, as I write from my chambers 
I praise you for looking out even when at times im a stranger
