same story (my dedication)

You came into my mothers life at the right time
More than a step-father more of like a lifeline
She aint really had happiness since my pop died
She was living but living is always not alive
And my momma should be treated like a queen
You gave her everything she ever needed like a queen
Probably the most gentle G I ever seen
The love yall shared I never seen in human beings
Yall were together twelve years never no fights
Not even a little argument that was so nice
Three of us eating dinner together most nights
Working seven days a week that aint no life
But never once did I hear you complain
Even when they let you go
Never hear you with blame

It take a real man to walk through the rain
He was a real man who got sick
And fought through the pain

I am made of all four corners
All directions without the borders

I am strung so loose together
And youre a thread that holds forever

Im not nobodys baby

You had your **** too
But you always came through for me

I walked in that morning
And knew something was wrong
I tried to talk to you Rock you didnt respond
I called 9-1-1 and then ran for my moms
Waiting for the ambulance and I tried to be calm
Moms went with you
I stayed and held down the fort
I was nervous I was crying and really distraught
I was alone by myself
Just left with my thoughts
Mommy called
Told me that you had a stroke and fought
I aint seen a hospital since my father died
I dont like it there memories is locked inside
When I walked inside the room we started to cry

I was just so happy that you was alive
And you told you how much
That you hate the hospital
And that they thieves are trying
To keep their pockets full
I think I hold myself a little bit responsible
When you was smoking all the time
I wasnt stopping you
Nevertheless you came home and that was real
A lot of therapy and doctors gave you lots of pills
You couldnt thrive anymore
You had to stop and chill
And thats too much for anybody
That can stop your will

But you never got back to your norm
You was proud
Didnt want any help from my mom
I left for tour
And you asked me how long Id be gone
And I could see inside your eyes
You knew something was wrong
I got back mommy told me you was sick again

Couldnt believe
That we was going through this **** again
I love you Rock
And Im always gonna miss you friend
And for me its just the same story
Different pen

I am made of all four corners
All directions without the borders

I am strung so loose together
And youre a thread that holds forever

Im not nobodys baby

You had your **** too
But you always came through for me
