CAN YOU RELATE

Contributed by THUGGIN4REAL on Wednesday, 2nd March 2005 @ 03:55:25 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry

I ROLLED DOWN THE WINDOWS
SO I COULD GRAB SOME AIR
IT WAS TIME TO RELAX AND REMENISE
ON THOSE WHO REALLY CARED
I NEVER FORGET THE ONES WHO DONE ME WRONG
THEY SAY LIFE GOES ON
SO I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR ANY SORRY SONGS
I WON'T GO INTO DETAIL ABOUT MY BOY
R.I.P.
PEOPLE WOULD'NT UNDERSTAND ME
IT WOULD BE LIKE ASKING A BLIND MAN TO SEE
I BOW MY HEAD AND ASK GOD TO SET YOU FREE
BEFORE I GO TO HEAVEN
CAN YOU SPEAK TO HIM ABOUT ME?
REMEMBER THE DAY YOU TOLD ME TO GO BACK HOME FOR MY DAUGHTER?
WHY WAS IT WHEN I ASKED YOU TO COME WITH
YOU DIDN'T BOTHER?
OUT OF EVERYBODY GOD HAS TAKEN AWAY
I WISH HE WOULD OF BLESSED YOU WITH A LIFETIME TO STAY
GROWING UP IN THE HOOD
MOST OF US KIDS WERE LEFT WITHOUT A DAD
WHICH MADE MOST OF US SAD
AND EVEN MAD
BUT DON'T GET IT TWISTED
THEY WERE'NT ALL BAD
BUT I WAS
TWENTY-FIVE YEARS
AND I ONLY GOT ONE BIRTHDAY CARD
ALL I WANTED WAS YOUR RESPECT
BUT I GUESS THAT WAS TOO HARD
WHEN WE TALKED
THERE WAS MORE SLIENCE THAN WORDS
EVEN WHEN YOU STARTED TO TALK CRAZY
I LET IT FLY WITH THE BIRDS
I ONLY LIVED WITH YOU FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS
THEN YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO TELL ME TO GIVE UP MY KID
THATS WHAT KILLS ME
I WOULD'NT DO WHAT YOU DID
GOT LOCKED UP WITHOUT A CHANCE FOR BAIL
THANKS FOR PUTTING HALF ON MY LAWYER
BUT WHY DIDN'T YOU RESPOND TO ANY OF MY MAIL?
HAVING NOTHING TO DO BUT THINK
WHAT ELSE COULD I HAD DONE IN A FIFTY-FOUR MAN TANK?
WENT TO SCHOOL TO GET MY MIND RIGHT
STARTED TO FOLLOW GOD
CAUSE EVEN DARKNESS NEEDS LIGHT
WHO WOULD OF THOUGHT THESE WORDS WOULD TAKE FLIGHT
AFTER YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH
YOUR EYES NO LONGER SHOW ANY FRIGHT
ALL MY LIFE I LIVED BY THIS CODE
ITS CALLED
"DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR"
ITS FOR THOSE WHO CAN HOLD THEIR OWN
BUT JUST BECAUSE I'M OUT
DOESN'T MEAN I'M FREE
THIS IS JUST ANOTHER TESTIMONY
OF
THE LAST OF A DYING BREED

God reaches down from the mirey clay places us on solid rock to stay. I am so glad he brought you out. So glad you have years ahead of you to live for him. So glad you know his love that he forgives and loves no matter what we do or say. I am so glad he loves you today......In Heaven his light is so bright that there will not be any shadows... I will get to meet you. Great write.
