The General of My Life Jerome
No military general, no 5 star general, yet Uncle Jerome was General
5 star general is a Army rank, Delighted the Olde English 800 got old pronounced the liver during the time that Uncle drank
Numberless occasions Uncle told me stories alike and I regularly listened like it was dissimilar instrumental
A storyteller is what you can call my Uncle
Reminiscing and drinking malt liquor is what Uncle did till the liver had no ammunition army tank
Several noble credentials I seen were concealed, yet Uncle recognized nobility in nephews potential
Uncle was the motivational water and I was a maturing plant
Uncle and I were a match and I keep my fingers crossed his kidney doesn't go amiss if so nephew is a match
Schedule an appointment for a kidney transplant
Surgeon supply a deficiency, add life to Uncle, fill him up along with a newborn life supplemental
Iron the wrinkles away from his flesh and blood like pants and allow his heart to beat again like once broken up rock bands
I knew my Uncle was monumental; I built a monument in my mental
Power balance bands are your wristbands; NCAA Florida Gators hats are your hatbands
Three brothers, three sisters and a world of nephews
But I was the only nephew you were judgmental too
Tough love, Uncle all I want to say is "THANK YOU NEPHEW LOVE YOU"
