A heartfelt song to SFM's daughter. Anybody should be able to feel this one.
lyrics
1st
Girl I miss you
I only want to hug and kiss you
I still cry over you
Big bags of tissue
Ain't no sun
So the weather is the issue
Storms of my own life made you miss too
Based on my decisions, you've been affected
Thanks to your Katida, you ain't been neglected
I hustled hard for money, to offer protection
But my mind wasn't right cause I kept getting arre-
Ugh!
This isn't about excuses
It's a song to you Kashauni
About how blue it gets
When your away
No medication calms, I have to pray
I'm in Hawai'i with Grandma Carnie making a way
Your birthdays June 1st
I'll be there to cut the cake
These tropics ain't got nothing on the aura you display
I know your probably tired of what grown folks got to say
When the rarely back it up
Well I'm here to make a change
Today...
Chorus
2nd Verse
It's like huddling in Antarctic tents
But you gave me so much warmth, I'll survive these extra stints
I know you probably wonder "What is up with this?"
From time to time
But line for line
I spit it to you real girl!
Life is complex
With the proper amount of patience it'll all make sense
You have DNA from both sides that offer courage and strength
Knowledge, Wisdom, and Understanding
Power and righteousness
The harder life might get is the form of a compliment
Cause Jah knew you were strong enough to carry the weight of it
So shine baby! Shine!!!
Never feel fine with settling for less
Always give it your best
And I ain't just talking
I'll be right there too
Can't speak for no one else but that's my promise to you
Cause I know what it's like to have my daddy gone for a few
Don't know where I'd be if it wasn't for your Grandpa Boom
