You live forever[00:00:07]

How 'bout them bullets ain't slow you up[00:00:20]

You ain't really die and we watched you grow up[00:00:22]

At 12 months you took your first steps[00:00:25]

Awkwardly across the kitchen floor to your best[00:00:27]

Your first breaths that we can call words[00:00:30]

You In your father's lap on November 23rd[00:00:32]

And they were Live for me and he did for you[00:00:34]

Flipped to Neutron and stayed inside the crib for you[00:00:37]

And this commitment from your father[00:00:40]

Imparted a deep sense of value you forever harbor[00:00:42]

We were all so proud as we seen you getting smarter[00:00:44]

And the bond grow deeper between a mother and a daughter[00:00:46]

But you were not a martyr[00:00:50]

Find out I was just a bad dream[00:00:52]

Goodbye[00:00:58]

At six you started reading whole books[00:00:59]

At seven you knew how a brain looked[00:01:12]

And could roughly describe all the different regions[00:01:14]

Could tell when we was sick and even knew the reason[00:01:16]

The world wasn't at peace gunfire every weekend[00:01:19]

But you were hardly there cause you was always leaving[00:01:21]

Field museum planetarium aquarium[00:01:24]

You saw something special in that tank you were starin' in[00:01:26]

And in those moments as a little girl[00:01:29]

You realized it was a bigger world[00:01:32]

Bigger than the South Side bigger than Chicago[00:01:34]

You were bigger still wanted rims on your car though[00:01:36]

And big a*s woofers in your car door[00:01:38]

So you could wang like your daddy at the park eating sharks[00:01:41]

Went to King where you were teased for being smart[00:01:44]

Where you bumped into Hadiya teaching art[00:01:46]

You live forever[00:01:49]

Find out I was just a bad dream[00:01:53]

Neither ever nor never goodbye[00:02:18]

Neither ever nor never goodbye[00:02:22]

Neither[00:02:24]

At sixteen is when you got your scholarship[00:02:28]

At twenty two is when you got your doctorate[00:02:31]

Even now it's kind of hard to believe[00:02:33]

But your father taught you work hard and achieve[00:02:35]

And you complied[00:02:38]

Accepted by every medical school you applied[00:02:39]

But the coolest thing is when they offered you that high paying slot you replied[00:02:42]

They need me in the hood and that's where you reside[00:02:45]

Free clinic nobody denied[00:02:48]

And that's where you heard the shots and quickly ran outside[00:02:50]

And saw a man and a van and a bleeding baby in his hands[00:02:52]

Fading fast but you knew she could survive[00:02:55]

Did everything you could to keep this girl alive[00:02:58]

Stabilized until the ambulance arrived[00:03:01]

And in that moment where you gave your help[00:03:03]

I bet you didn't know that you saved yourself[00:03:05]

Fold down your hands give me a sign[00:03:08]

Hooked on your lies[00:03:13]

Lay down next to me don't listen when I scream[00:03:17]

Bury your doubts and fall asleep[00:03:22]

Lord have mercy[00:03:34]
