You Deserve This

As I prep for university, I took a second to reflect and pen a verse to see How this one tragedy has thus affected my reality It's how my music started A vent, and a venture in to an art That ended up forming a larger part And has largely formed the person that I are now When it all started, I was just a kid trying to sort out the feelings that I was feeling Looking back, the situation caused me to mature early, really I went from this eight-year-old kid to a young man in really no time Because every day I had these grown thoughts of what could have been…haunting my mind. I decided to suspend rap and take a second to drop the façade, Because I wanted to talk about something a little more near and dear to my heart To be honest, there were many nights where I sat, and prayed for death But those are the nights where I look back, and see that I’ve grown to regret See, I left a piece of me in that town home to that swinging Arch I never felt emotions like I did on that one cold day in March Ever since that day, I’ve never been whole – I’ve always missed part I have a little peace, because I know God’s plans don’t always end up in OUR cards This isn’t a prepared verse, just a quick splattering of my thoughts And I hope this can give somebody comfort when their times get a little hard Just remember through your tears, the one you love is staring down and grinning And every time something ends, it always ends up a new beginning. So, J...you deserve this.
