Hello Kajaun

Yeah, this is your guy Guitar K
It feels so good to be clean and sober
No crack, no smack, no none of that
Chari Hill stand up

Hello, how are you today? (Hello, hello)
It's been a long time coming, but I think you finally found your way (finally found)
Hello, how are you today? (Hello, hello)
You gotta do what you gotta do (gotta do) to help this new youth say hello, c'mon

I'm here now, like to live now to 20 plus years, but I'm outside of my head
Wild nights around here, outside of active addiction
I fell victim to a substance that's whipped in ghetto kitchens
I got 30 plus days clean
Now I'm on a mission, reached to stick and suffer
I hope somebody's listening

Well, hello, Mr. Parker
Hey, how you doing?
I forgot how to be myself now
It's time to learn
Don't worry, be happy

Hip hop Bobby McFerrin
Yeah, here's a little song I wrote
You might want to learn it note by note
It's filled with sex, lies, clouds of crack smoke
But the flip side though, I'm trying to give somebody hope
I'm in recovery now
So to God be the glory
Sometimes you see where you messed up
Tell yourself your own story written by me for me

Hello, Kajaun
Hello, how are you today? (Hello, hello)
It's been a long time coming, but I think you finally found your way
Hello, how are you today? (Hello, hello)
You gotta do what you gotta do to help this new you stay

Hello, Kajaun
I'm here now, got life to live now
Jesus lifted me up, but God straightened my crown
Hello, Kajaun
Don't it feel good on the other side of it?
Yeah, 'cause them drugs hit me going phew-phew like KITT from Knight Rider

These front line reports from my addictions insider
Say goodbye to self-medication
Now, one thing in the past, got tired of saving faces, started saving my ass
Suffer from addiction
I can't get high casually
'Cause I will see pleasure past the point of immorality
Picking up is easy, but putting it down is rough
They say that one is too many, thousands never enough

I surrender for serenity, drugs are off the menu
I was told if you don't pick it up, it won't get in you
Your next hit could be your last
Your story might not read "to be continued"
Ah, jails, institutions, and death
The only places that active addiction sent you

Hello, Kajaun
Hello, how are you today? (Hello, hello)
It's been a long time coming, but I think you finally found your way
Hello, how are you today? (I wanna know)
You gotta do what you gotta do (gotta do) to help the new you stay

Hello, Kajaun
I'm here now
Got gray on my belt
I'm 46 years old, still trying to make my mother proud
My pops too, up in heaven, looking down
COVID took your life, but it can't erase your memory
Your four sons and two daughters weak, carry your energy
For years, I ignored the wise words presented to me
Sorry took the pain of your death to beat an enemy
But self-love was a hidden remedy

Hello, Kajaun, time to express the lessons you learned
Hello, Kajaun, step into the blessings you've earned
Hello, Kajaun, you're shining in recovery's gleam
Hello, Kajaun, you're not getting high, you're pissing clean
Hello, Kajaun, there's light in your eye

You're looking strong to the using addicts suffering in hell's porn
You got breath in your body while you're not too far gone
Found a new way of life. It's recovery-driven
Hello, from the other side, I'm in the land of the living
Where my God keeps giving and giving

Ah, hello, Kajaun
Hello, how are you today?
It's been a long time coming, but I think you finally found your way
Hello, how are you today? (I wanna know)
You gotta do what you gotta do to help this new you stay

Hello, Kajaun
Hello, how are you today? (Hello, hello, yeah, yeah)
It's been a long time coming, but I think you finally found your way
Hello, how are you today? (I wanna know, feels good on this side)
You gotta do what you gotta do to help this new you stay (gotta stay)

Hello, Kajaun
Just for the day, man
We do recover
Fuck drugs
Try and live

I'm tryin' to live
