Probably the happiest song I ever wrote...

13’ Til Infinity
.:Intro:.
This probably be the happiest song on the album, or I ever wrote
Back into the valley, 119th on Figueroa street, backyard alleys
Can’t forget Cali, Think of Uncle Carl, laying on the couch
Nigga smelling like a bar
Rest in Peace
.:Verse:.
What is life to a kid? Momma & Daddy, no daddy, no big
Momma can’t handle tryna be a man, when a man, is the reason she can’t understand
Why the world so cold, heart feel lonely, Daddy got caught, momma got worried
Really didn’t know, what to do but her instincts told her, move down to Las Vegas…
…Met my uncle…& my auntie, Kevin, KaVon, Lil Kenny
Daniel Goldfarb Elementary school, 1st grade through 5th, Can you hear me?
Do chores then, get money…Ice cream truck, spend money
…That was my life every day, cavities in my teeth like every day
My young auntie came down with a pregnancy, then agreed upon the name of Kynedi Jean
Jean being carried from Betty Jean, Betty Jean was my great granny that passed away
…What a blessing, birthing on the month after 9/11…I could feel it in my soul without reverend
…If you ever seen a birthing take affection, be closest thing to heaven
When I turned six found out I have rhythm…Venom, spit it ‘cause pops had write ‘em
By the time I turned seven-
I would listen not…only to the music making legends but the ones who made a difference
When I turned eight started cooking in the kitchen…nine years old when I spit my first written
10 years later, making beats on reason then fruity loops 5 had arrived at eleven
.:Verse:.
What is life to a man? Raising his kid from a boy to a man
Daddy can’t handle tryna be a man, when a man, is the reason he can’t understand
Why the world so cold, heart feel buried; Pops got murdered, moms now lonely
Really didn’t know, how to cope but his instincts told him, things heal when you patient
…May 2nd…97’…Watched my lil brotha momma on a stretcher
Transferred to a hospital bed then opened her legs…huh…what-a-mother
Let me hold him, let me hold my little brother…Only child now I finally got another
Been a while, by now him a teen-so-TIME to instruct-UH my younger youngster
Dad had a Pop; Pop name Joe, Joe met a woman by the last name Watson
Moved in Watts & had 3 children, married, 5 years later they popped him
…Dad barely knew his pops and…I never met my grandpa
…What I do know from grandma, Grandpa Joe took care of his fam y’all
…’round middle school, dad free now, got Pro Tools, on beat how
Clever to export…mp3, on free trial…no CD
Better for me then, R.3.D…before I was going by Supreme
Before I was loving ladies, had love for music when I turned 13
