Picking Up The Pieces

Watch my life unravel
I used to be so fragile
I was glass then I shattered
Picking up the pieces
You never really know life's reasons

I was such a daddy's girl
How I wish you were here
From the music he played
To the things he would say
I wonder if you ever knew
You were my hero in the light of day
I saw life through your eyes
I couldn't fall asleep
Unless you were home
I felt safe in your presence
You always kelp me from harm
I'll lay on your arm
You would tell me how strong
You would teach me right from wrong
And how being a black woman would bring life's storms
That always stuck with me.
You were here and now your gone
You'll always be a part of me
So in your memory
I write this song

Watch my life unravel
I used to be so fragile
I was glass then I shattered
Picking up the pieces.
You never really know life's reasons

You were the reason I started rapping
I would ride shotgun
With the music blasting
bobbing my head
The moments that we sheared
Wondering if you were still here
What would we talk about
I would play you this song
Having you rapping along
You died at a young age
You were only thirty
I just wonder how
Life would have been different
Would I have been more equipped in my relationships
Would we have moved to a better home?
Would my mother be alone?
These are things that I Wonder

Watch my life unravel
I used to be so fragile
I was glass then I shattered
Picking up the pieces.
You never really know life's reasons

Never really know
Never really know
Never really know
Never really know
Never really know life's reason
