You know that heart felt tone That one the goes through the skin and enters your bones The one that makes your breath to cease The one where your chest is heavy and an exhale you cannot release
Remember that day that all of us men do know The day we heard our Mama cry and the heart attack within us it did bestow That day we did what we should not have done And it hurt her so deeply she cried many tears.. NO not just one
To hear her moan and that shrill that peaked the air Oh my gawd.. it broke me down.. I wish I had not been there Like nails on a chalk board and the message it did seek It was the message that bad I had done, and bad now I shall reap
When a sista cries, notice how the world does stop and listen For no sound has ever been heard, that one that you wish you were missin They quiet down and listen as if Gabrials horn had been blown Never more to hear a sound like that, such a screeching deftone
Now feel yourself as this writing holds you near Feel the pain from the one that loved you unconditionally my dear Feel the pain that is behind the sound Remember to breath, again. And again as your knees hit the ground
What is this pain that we as men do reap.. on our sistas no doubt, the ones that in love and for love we do seek Can you stand it, or do you have to dismiss yourself This is what happens when in wrong you have dealt
But rest assure just as you are here, the crying will stop once more For this is a sista, the very definition of strength and what we fail to live for And as her weaping does decline to a sniffle and another tear See your Mother, remember the pain that you brought here.
And then it happens, you feel apart of YOU does die All because... you made a loving SISTA cry!
