Did You Know?
Mama.
Papa.
Did You Know?
Did you know
In the 16 years I would be alive
I would almost die 3 times.
First time I was in the womb
You didn't know not to consume your medication.
It slowed your heart and almost stopped mine.
Mama I'm glad you listened to the doctor so I could be alive.
The second event were I was almost 6 ft under
Family vacation is when I took a plunder
Five feet deep and I was stuck at the bottom.
I thought I could swim , left my floaties and my sister got'em
I tried to get back to the surface,
But I was so little, it served no purpose.
Saved by my brother in just the right time
If he didn't come maybe ya would've done time.
The third time where I would nearly got to meet God
Was 2013, April my insides infected.
It ruptured and I was being poisioned by myself
This time I'm glad I didn't almost die by myself.
Mama.
Papa.
If you knew I would almost die
Three times, in my life.
If someone for told you my future
That your heart would ache some nights because my health
Would you have kept me.
Or do you believe the ache in your heart is only for a moments time
And that I will bring you more joy when I become a big time.
