I don’t call like I should I’m always making excuses I know that this bothers you and I should be more attentive To how you feel when I don’t reach out I should be more attentive To how I speak when I reach out Especially since we’re so distant I’m not accustomed to having so many miles between us I always felt like you were next to me like Mercury and Venus My lack of phone usage I know turns you away But don’t interpret my lack as way to make you fade You are my stain that could never leave with diluted bleach You have to change the fabric of my being to separate you from me I always complain when you say nonsensical things But you're the only person I know who can make wanna scream Your impact on my impact is impactful in itself You make me feel like shiny trophy on top of a shelf And when I feel like I’m drowning You reach your hand out to help And then teach me how to swim so that I can salvage myself You are a pearl and you know it So precious and rare It takes years to form you from just small grain of sand But one thing that I’ve learned From my time on my own Is that you can change your location But you can never change home Before I leave home you make sure that blessed Anointed oil on my forehead keeps your worries at rest I always try my best to say my prayers at night But I can count on you if I’m not doing them right You are roots of this plant and because of you I am grounded I can bear the fruits of your labor and leave everybody astounded And when I came to you and talked about the pain in my soul You took that pain in your hand and changed it to gold You are an angel that has come from the heavens I always wondered why you were obsessed with the number seven But I know now Its because you use divine metrics You measure every single detail From our birthdays to our checklists You are a product of the matrix You don’t live in our time You’re always 10 minutes ahead You are one of a kind I know that it pains you to know that I’m growin' Just understand that you’ll always be wherever I’m goin’ I take pride to have you It’s like claiming a queen I can’t repay you enough Because I owe you everything That I am With that said I give up I won’t try To pay back All the things That you gave I would die Before I Would get to Only Half Of my Debts So I guess I will just Donate part Of my Chest Specifically the left because that has the most love Thank you for teaching me to keep my eyes set above Without those lessons and talks And petty altercations I wouldn’t be such an expert on how to have communication You gave me your abilities This art runs through my veins The royalty in your genetics Will one day make me a King And when I’m sitting on my throne Looking at what I have I’ll thank God for giving me you And then I’ll thank him for bands The reason why us 4 Are always so close Was because you spread the love equally None of us had the most And that’s hard I know When you have a son like me So fly and creative The others are instantly beat You also showed me that truth Is greater than lies The way you always stayed honest Really opened my eyes We as people can be cruel Constantly drawing borders But you don’t eat from the same place You get your food special ordered And you don’t let your mind stumble Never tainted at all While the rest of the world loses itself In red eyes and ethanol But most of all you are distinguished That’s why you’re a rose Never think that I’m far ma' Just say I’m distantly close Love, Your Son
