"thank you"

Let me take a page from Kanye

This one's a piece about my supportive

Mother who never doubted me

A momma's boy, yeah that's true

But it's cause of her love and support that I'm here before you

My Dad too, so much things that they do

I've probably never thanked them enough though

Haven't expressed my love so

Almost 20 years old, Man I'm supposed to be grown

Support never endin', encouragement continuin'

Too many positives to even compare to the negatives

Negativity never envelop me when they talk to me

I've sometimes been the trouble child

Let me rephrase that - sometimes meanin' most of the time

Causin' headaches and heartaches

Disappointments when I could be out here supportin'

Instead I sometimes create problems

Too many things to thank for, my list could go on forever

Never thank 'em too much, cause there're some things that I ask too much for

I just hope that with all their support I make em proud of me

Make em feel like I'm accomplished

Not just a bum livin' off the streets

Livin' off the paper that they're chasin'

Cause paper chasin' shouldn't take more energy than raisin' a family

I know I haven't shown my gratitude instead givin' attitude

I just wanna let both of you know that I'm thankful

Grateful to the One above

For blessing me with beings who show so much love

I only wish my Lolo's could see me

As I developed on this journey

Life, something which all of you gave me

A direction, positive, never ones to give

Anythin' less than all of yourselves

Cause you all knew that, and you knew it well.

Words would never be enough so here I stand

Promisin' to make you all proud, to these words, my bond.
