My family ode

Instrumentals from nas thugz mansion When the beat drops at 54 seconds in then start.....

Yo,
This one goes out to my boys, My mum,
Friends and loved ones.
Past,
Future and present,
I just want my boys to know so here we go...

By the tender age of 13,
My eyes had already seen and done many things,
that a teenage boy should never have even seen.
No one held me back,
So I was led down the path of darkness and destruction.
Drugs,
Money and alcohol,
At that age were my everything,
Being chased by the police, Thrill seeking.
For my kids I don’t want that, They give me strength to go on.
Don’t let them follow my same path,
Just look at the limbo I’m perched on...
I’m laying here,
Dying of cancer,
Not knowing when my time’s up and to the skies I come.... So boys lets make use of this time,
As I don’t know how long daddy has got to carry on.
For you all,
I’d wade through lava as you’re all my everything.
All my saving grace.
You boys are my namesake, It’s soon gonna be up to you, which path you choose to take.
I’m always going to be here, Dead or alive and mentally strong,
Giving you all a helping hand, Just to carry on.
To all of my loved ones,
I'll still love you when I’m gone...
When I’m gone,
just close your eyes and there you’ll see me and you can visualise,
Talk to and I’ll listen but only ever will be able to answer at night,
Through your dreamland visions...
All the decisions we make in our young lives have a ripple affect,
And good or bad we learn from it,
so treat your loved ones,
as i would,
with all your love.
All your respect...
