Unckle Ja'Maz

He was a lyricist Who wrote his words down on toilet paper, paper towels, or torn up cardboard boxes Just jotting down writing on anything that’s lying around Always had/has pen or pencil in his hair Always jotting down something Brother was inspired He’s so inspiring.. While working a job making $ 9.85 an hour All his friends said you should try out on American Idol Always jotting down something Brother was inspired He’s so inspiring.. Never frowning, never sad I never seen or saw my uncle mad Always writning something down A poem a songwriter.. Hee’s my uncle Ja maz’ a poet few knew it(nobody knows it) Has tools hardly uses it, uses them Neither rhyme nor reason oft times self-indulgence Never reluctant to share his verses Never cusses nor curses Writes in print while riding horses Is a lyricist most often poetic Dreams in color while shopping at the mall Always a pen or pencil in his hair Always jotting down somethin just inspired Always jotting down something Brother was inspired He’s so inspiring.. While working a job making $ 9.85 an hour All his friends said you should try out on American Idol Always jotting down something Brother was inspired He’s so inspiring.. Never frowning, never sad I never seen or saw my uncle mad He’s my Unckle Ja’maz Written words & arranged music by JaMaz Rseel Drawde Semaj 2015, 2019© From anthology “Unckle Ja’maz a deadication to Jamela Jenkins”
