Consider my love
The days when we were
together so young
Our love was enough
remember 1 9 7 4
the Lord put me
On this planet
with a plan to be
As hard as granite
calm spirit no panic
At the childbirth verse read
Mother shaped my head
with a kiss
Xamn he got a strong
grip as I suckled
My father ' s knees buckled
From the joy
luck would have it
That this bouncing
baby boy would
Gravitate towards being
Poetic emceein ' in the future
But for now on the nipple
Like a hookah fast forward
Play games and duke a bit
The years progress
messed with cats
That dib and
dabbled in chess
Less strategical
but meaningful
Growing was completed so fast
3 rd grader doing
5 th grade math
Knew the library staff
and half the books
I read shed light xamn
Those Arabian Knights
was influenced by love
That be of my birthright
Consider my love
The days when we were
together so young
Our love was enough remember
Sundays at church
watching the preacher
Work the pulpit sit
Next to ma pay attention
Or you ' d get pent
against the wall
Times was serious
but love conquered
Above sponsors of hate
So we had to relate
in those days
Hiphop was ill conforming
To the whack
performing was unreal
And listen that ' s real
We ' d kill for a chance
to go dance & wop
Pop music was hot & new
Boys would pop & groove
With high tops & loose shoes
To hiphop that Incorporated
jazz & blues In high school
arts were plentiful
Magnetic programs
romance was synthetic
Dead it in a minute
so much love
But love I ' m tryin to get it
Through roads and streets
Avenues and creeks
Seek what my heart desires
Buying tracks that
meet complete now so
Consider my love
The days when we were
together so young
Our love was enough remember
Those family functions
no interruptions
Bustin ' The Dozens
on kin folk
Mainly your cousins
it ' s all love
In good spirit
used to hear it
From the older generation
Chasin ' them dreams
and stacking cream
For all of us
we used to boost a bit
Young kids with the itch
To have them cool fits
and fly kicks
Nike Dunks
California raised
So the hustle was
engrained from day one
Fake one ' s that front give it up
Childhood was good
From Stockton
to Inglewood
Boggs Tract in fact is
Where the foundation lies at
Now Mac trucks back up
to speed the track up
I plead don ' t crack up
The dirt before we act up
From the foot to the brain
Impact cuts the soul deep
A whole heap
but peep we still gain
Things have changed
But memories stay the same
This brave heart parts with
Consider my love
The days when we were
together so young
Our love was enough remember
Consider my love
The days when we were
together so young
Our love was enough remember
Consider my love
