Creator

This one here's for The Creator 'Trying to get over...' like Curtis Mayfield said I was a problem child, running wild in the night Livin on a not-so-safe set of life Caught up in the rapture, quick to blast ya Neglected as a juvenile, so labelled a 'ghetto bastardForced to live the life of a hoodster on the prowl Goin through my life with a permanent frown But still you stood by me and you got me here safely Never turned away from me when others lost faith in me Even when I was a non-believer and doubted your existence You still shed mercy on my ignorance How can I say this, no words can't explain How much I thank you for helpin me deal with the pain For sparin my life at times I thought I was through All praise is due, here's to you So [ CHORUS ] This is for the lover in you This is for the things that you do This time I will take up for you Cause your love's gon' last forever Now as I reminisce like Minnie Riperton in a Pendleton I'm havin flashbacks 'lookin at these photographsGlancin at old flicks of me and my dogs Thinkin how we all played little league
