Y.M.P. (Young Man's Pain)

Look listen observe Pain rehearsed Cursed when preaching a verse Memories of you In a hearse Feeling a scorch As you return to Earth The woman I knew from birth Church bells ring as angels sing A warming rejoice Longing to hear your voice Silence is the new noice Life or death is there ever a choice Could be here today Gone tomorrow Time is what we borrow At least fly free like a sparrow Traveling roads that's narrow Needing your guidance Searching for diamonds In a world uncertain and unsure Cleanse myself to be pure Yearning to be more While the Devil keeps score Yo Unconditional scorn heart's torn Momma my first love Symbolized by a dove The worse loss at fifteen This grass ain't green On any other side Anger I could never hide Subside feelings with liquor Sink quicker in abyss and numbness Losing my way Back in another court summons What am I doing Situations that need subduing Words soulful like this sample Your portrait hangs from the mantle May lose my dribble but this rock I handle You taught me to walk Gave me the gift of gab that I talk So I spread my wings soar like a hawk You were a legend in New York My Queen Ma Dukes Seems like death's a fluke It's never understood But it comes when it should Thief in the night When the end is near Is it dark or bright If I do right Will I see the light Touch God's grace just to see your face Venture through time and space Earning my place Next to the woman that gave me life Words sharper than knives Reminiscing your journey into skies Upwards where clouds lay Feeling your presence in every way I love you Ma
