For Her.

you always held me closer when i'd rather push away/
i'm finding that it's easiest to lose your way from the root/
the origin of love, unconditional i've rediscovered within you/
the advice you've given, true/
akin to periods of powerlessness i've been through/

through it all, i'm standing taller now/
f@#% impressing others, the best thing is having her blessing/
and blending it with broken souls in need of mending/
and sending it through, the same way living and dying angels knew to/
send it through magically, like a piece of d'angelo's voodoo/

do you know what you do?/
you transmit radiowaves of rejuvenation into the .am and .fm of my be-in'/
good vibes like cal tjader's, so much soul like vinroc's faders/
sweet anytime, like now or laters/
just let me say a little prayer, and constantly thank my Savior for allowing me to save her/
in my memory bank for all centuries and time/
i thank the essence of love, outlasting the most picturesque dawn/
breaking light to let me write this reminder, dedicated to Mom.
