Same Story [My Dedication]
They say that things just cannot grow
Beneath the winter snow
And so I have been told
You came into my mother's life
At the right time more than a step-father
More of like a lifeline
She ain't really had happiness
Since my pop died
She was living but living is always not alive
And my momma should be treated like a queen
You gave her everything she ever
Needed like a queen
Probably the most gentle G I ever seen
The love y'all shared I never
Seen in human beings
Y'all were together twelve years
Never no fights
Not even a little argument, that was so nice
Three of us eating dinner
Together most nights
Working seven days a week, that ain't no life
But never once did I hear you complain
Even when they let you go
Never hear you with blame
It take a real man to walk through the rain
He was a real man who got
Sick and fought through the pain
They say that things just cannot grow
Beneath the winter snow
And so I have been told
They say we're very far
Just like a distant star
I simply cannot hold
I walked in that morning and
Knew something was wrong
I tried to talk to you Rock
You didn't respond
I called 9-1-1 and then ran for my moms
Waiting for the ambulance and I
Tried to be calm moms went with you
I stayed and held down the fort
I was nervous
I was crying and really distraught
I was alone by myself
Just left with my thoughts mommy called
Told me that you had a stroke and fought
I ain't seen a hospital since my father died
I don't like it there
Memories is locked inside
When I walked inside the room
We started to cry
I was just so happy that you was alive
And you told you how much
That you hate the hospital
And that they thieves are trying
To keep their pockets full
I think I hold myself
A little bit responsible
When you was smoking all the
Time I wasn't stopping you
Nevertheless you came home and that was real
A lot of therapy and doctors
Gave you lots of pills
You couldn't thrive anymore
You had to stop and chill
And that's too much for anybody
That can stop your will
But you never got back to your norm
You was proud
Didn't want any help from my mom
I left for tour and you asked
Me how long I'd be gone
And I could see inside your eyes
You knew something was wrong
I got back mommy told me you was sick again
Couldn't believe that we was going
Through this shit again
I love you Rock and I'm
Always gonna miss you friend
And for me it's just the same story
Different pen
