1993, shortly before
Thanksgivin'
I got the call she say Jamal,
Derek is no longer livin
Softly she
spoke
Is this a joke?
Man, you gotta
be kiddin
As my question was raised this
explanation was givin
A meaningless death
Made me question the meaning of life
Does my body remain at rest like when I'm

great mcs

brother like me is full in the fight"
And

life
Nigga fight

Only god can set me free
Am I living in
this moment?
Am I living righteously?
It gets hard, but I know I've got to keep
on
I'm tryin so hard to be strong
Paralyzed on the bathroom floor by pain
Last month I endured
But now I can't
ignore
Feels like rail road spikes being
stuck in my liver
And my dyin eyes cryin',
body startin to shiver
Crawl upstairs from
the basement callin my sister
*sniff* Dawn,
help me, I ain't feelin to healthy
Stomach
walls burnin
Head spinnin and turnin
Waitin for the EMS 3:10 in the mournin
Rush me to emergency screamin like a
newborn
The pain's to str
