Yesterday Video (MV)

I take you back to a time in 08
I remember it like it was on yesterday
It was just a few days before my birthday
Got the call woke me up kind of late
Or I should say early, cause it was morning
Before the crack of dawning
I was still yawning
It was quite alarming
And she was frantic
The pain that I felt, it was gigantic
It took a little while just to understand it
But I was branded
Now I am branded
They said that my mom dukes was found dead
I said what you mean she was found dead
She wasn't breathing
I wasn't breathing
I remember tears
I remember fears
It seemed like there was nobody else here
I drove but I couldn't really see clear
I said no and I asked why
Lord how could you let my mother die
When I got there, I seen faces
They looked at me
Arms grabbed at me
Why Lord you can have me
She was our strength it couldn't be
It must be a joke, yeah that's it
She'll wake up in the morning like pass it
Life support, couple of days
Is she a donor
No, y'all just want her
I'm bout to blow up
Let another sap sucker show up
I'm bout to kill everything hold up
They took her off, breathed on her own
It gave me hope, but didn't last long
My mind was wrecked, tried to stay strong
School was in, but the class gone
August 22 was my birthday
They resuscitate, and resuscitate
And resuscitate and resuscitate
It seems like I started to hallucinate
The nurse's crying like there's no hope
My families dying with each electric jolt
I want to fight but her bodies weak
And they told us, she has no brain activity
What do we do, how can we decide
Just let her go, let her take that ride
Look at her eyes, no one's inside
I grabbed her hand for the last time
I kissed her brown skin, it still was warm
Then I ran out, I cried out
I cried loud
Lord tell me how
How to move on
When it hurts so bad
My mother's gone
The only one I had
They told me that my brother tried to resuscitate
He was young and I didn't know if he could take
What was being handed to him I guess its fate
I wish he didn't have to see her go that way
They told me to go to work it'll be ok
She was strong, I'm talking bout my vertebrae
They called her Nicey better known as Frances A
That's my mom, she gave me life
Come back to us, I'll make it right
I'm punching at the walls
Screaming down the hall
No sunshine just rainfall
It didn't work but I tried to stall
My sister said we have to let her go
But how can I, how can I let her go
A wave of peace came, then a blank stare
I heard a voice that came out of nowhere
I won't put more on you than you can bare
Then tell me why I want to pull my hair
He said remember me and I got you
Did you have her? Actually I do
Now I see her in glory, not in that bed
She's a living spirit, though her flesh dead
I found my peace and you can too
I love you Bruh I love you sis
We made it through
Though I miss my boo
I wish she could have seen me, now a good dude
And say to me that I'm proud of you
Your youngest hurting
But it's for certain
He gone be alright
You taught us a lot especially how to fight
So I'm gone be strong and lift you up
I love you Nicey, and lift my cup
