Hey mom, I wish I could have stuck around So you could have taught me On how to be a better man, Yet I ran From the shadows That grabbed onto my feet. Momma you called it the past, Yet I see it as my psychological jail sentence For the mistakes ive made, My ego was shattered And dug deep into the roots That twist along my body Hey mom, I wrote you this soft poem To let you know That I've never seen hunger Like this ground That dispatches of my skin, This shollow resting ground Is a lot smaller than my room. I do not search for apologies or answers To my last questions, I found those blowing in the wind Next to were my last breaths were sung
