You live, you live, you live!
How about them bullets? they slow you up
You ain’t really dying, we watched you grow up
At twelve months you took your first steps
Awkwardly across the kitchen floor, did your best
Your first breath that we can call words
On your father’s lap, on November 21st
And they were, “live for me!” and he did for you,
Flipped a neutron, and stayed inside the crib for you!
And this commitment from your father
Imparted a deep sens of value you forever harbour.
We were all so proud as we seen you getting smarter
And the bond grow deep between the mother and the daughter,
Cause you are not a martyr!
You live, you live, you live!
…it was just a bad dream
At six you started reading whole books
At seven you knew how the brain looked
And can roughly described all the different regions
Can tell that we were sick and even knew the reasons.
The world wasn’t at peace, gunfire every week
And bitch, you were hardly there, cause you was always leaving!
Field museums and planetarium aquarium
It all sounds special in the tank you were staring in.
And in those moments as a real girl,
You realized there was a bigger world!
Bigger than the South Side, bigger than Chicago
You were bigger still when .. on your cargo
And big ass woofers in ya car door
So you can wink like your daddy at the park eating sharks.
Went to King where you were teased for being smart
When you bumped into… at teaching art
You live forever!
…it was just a bad dream
Be that ever or never goodbye!
Be that ever or never goodbye!
Be that
At 16 is when you got your scholarship.
At 22 is when you got your doctorate
Even now is kinda hard to believe
But your father taught you to work hard and achieve!
And you complied, accepted by every medical school you applied
But the coolest thing
Is when they offered you that highly paying slot
You replied, “they need me in the hood!”,
And that’s when you reside!
Free clinic, nobody deny it
It’s when you heard the shots and you ran outside
And saw a man in his van and a blue baby in his hands
Fading fast, but you knew she could survive.
Did everything you could to keep this girl alive
Stabilize until the ambulance arrived
And in that moment when you gave your help
I bet you didn’t know that you saved yourself!
..open your eyes!
You live forever
God have mercy!
