The Book

lyrics

Yo each my parents grew up with a single mother
grandpops no longer
My father's life
Had him fending for himself- self-driven to own a home one day
My momma had six other siblings
That helped raise her
Into the angel she's always been
Her moms dedicated to her community
Doing everything for the church almost daily
My mother grew up looked out for by all of them
When my parents met
It was love instantaneously
But there was One condition
He had to attend to God If he wanted to wed with the Bee
My pops educated himself to the top of the military
That got him noticed for his extraordinary abilities
After they wed
The feds celebrated their wedding
By giving my mom's some cash to blow at the
Exclusive only casino for dignitaries
They had two kids
That grew up with a big family
then my pops came to canada, a year later the rest of the family
that was when they reunited and birthed me.
Ever since they gave us a life of luxury
Family business eventually
Working since the age of six, nine, twelve
Right up into our twenties
They never took a day off unless it was necessary
Which meant necessary moments for the family.
Funerals, graduations and weddings or similar gatherings
No time to slack like us
Cause we kids need snacks and such.
Grew up poor but then eventually
Lived in a home mom and pops came to own
So grateful for the home they built
In terms of providing for the family.
I was the first on my dad's side to ever get a degree
My bro the first kid to keep his name a legacy
Who knew we'd come so far
and come to this
24'7 parents working together every day
To me and my hubby 24'7 learning to play.
We all been blessed in so many ways
I can only be thankful
For everything that's come my way
Maybe we're formed before we're born
But life is lived like no other born
Whether there's a purpose
We'll never know
But enjoy ya life, even if it get a bit like a shit show
Cause there's always another side another end to the story
that continues on
To transform from , change and grow
That's Life by the book
The holy book
My parents wrote.
