Little Rock (Poem) Video (MV)

Dear Granny, I miss you every single day and
I can't live without you
I can't believe you're gone
I love you still and I wonder
If I was on your mind before you left

Do you still think of me
Do you still love me too
Because I live for you
Everything I do, I try to stay true
Pops said to spit it like the rent is due
But why, why, why
Why did you have to leave so soon

Al Green & Marvin Gaye remind me of you
Your song rings in my mind, so hard to forget
I hear your voice every time that I sing
I refuse to hear anything else
It's crazy how I forgot you were my everything
Until you became a memory
I'm sorry Granny
You deserved way more from me

Dear Granny, I can't stop thinkin' bout you
I'm breaking down on the bus because
I wish I could call you
And hear your laugh
And hear your voice
And see you smile

Your beautiful brown skin
How it shines in the sun
Your dark brown coffee ground
Eyes bear into mine
You know when I'm lying

I could never lie to you
You were never surprised
You had to bear everything
That I went through

I should have confided in the woman I could trust most
But instead I was worried about friends & what Chicago
Had to offer, Arkansas was my Little Rock
I should have stayed grounded.
