I finally did my Draw My Life video...my way... of course you know I had to rap it!
It actually took a lot for me to record this. There are mistakes i know but I havent even said a lot of this out loud. Ever. So I figured hopefully people will appreciate how raw it is...because i didnt want to have to do it again.

Lyrics:
DC conceived I was born at Walter Reed
Pop was aiming high so my mother quit her dreams
DC to Ohio and on to Massachusetts
Shortly after gained a brother but that's when they defused it
Argued after arguments fighting after fights
Never any violence but it woke me up at night
Then one day I woke up but still Lying in my bed
mom walked through the door and then she Kissed me on the head
Told me she was leaving but she would still be near
she cant always be present but she would still be here
I remember crying as she walked back out the door
Begging not to leave me and I rolled onto the floor
she said she didn't have the proper means to take care of us
and my dad was more prepared for the pair of us
didn't want us strugglin she didn't think it right plus
My dad wasn't giving us up without a fight
I understood but it was still a lot to swallow
now my comics games and lego helped me to escape the hollow
but I still acted out cause of the pain in which I wallowed so
many calls from principals and parents seemed to follow
disrupt the panorama when the air force dropped the hammer
had to move to Alabama got subdued by country grammar
my mom couldn't be present she really had no choice
but so she could be there she sent us tapes to hear her voice
daddy wasn't perfect but I know he did his best
single parent officer he stood up to the test
and no one on this planet gets more of my respect
I know it wasn't easy keeping my issues in check
to help my disposition and to temper my aggressions
my dad had me enlisted in athletic competitions he
Succeeded in his mission and I learned another lesson that the
Games were my escape but playing sports was my expression
Spent time in Virginia on our way to move to Maryland
Shortly after that I learned my mom was getting married and
I was a little wary and first I found it scary
but he was good to us so I let the issue bury
My father followed suit soon he also jumped the broom
But in this case I surely felt that something there was wrong
Cause No matter what we did boy we could never get along
It wasn't all on her I know I didn't make it easy
But some of what she said to me was just a bit too greasy
Things are better now because Im groen and now Im over it
Its around this time in which I really started rapping
Making silly rhymes at lunch clowning beads and knaps
And I never took it serious though people said I should
GPA was high and I was never really hood
Confess to misconception just I had to many weapons
For successs Im DC reppin had to turn my back for Cali
Daygo for specifics environs less prolific
They were bloodin they were crippin and their hair was jherri drippin
And to the Lord prayed someone please give me a fade
My brother moved to mothers our relationship decayed
And man what are you doing when the B from Boston Bruins
On your back means crabs attack dude someones brain is truant
Whether it was mine or theres I cant call it
All I knew I threw my apple and then commenced to haulin
In and out of Traffic Im surprised I aint get blasted yo the
Grass is always greener you don't know until you've lost it
And then with 3 years in my dad got orders back to Boston
Close to mom and bro but as a Senior isn't awesome
Listen closely now cause this is where it gets prophetic
Feeling stuck more than embedded moped around looking pathetic
8 and 2 to 0 and 10 what the hell I didn't get it
And now what's stepping to me was a Puerto Rican cutie
with an astronomic booty but I was way too moody
and like a fool I waited until the end of school
for me to try and holler she said to seek her sister
she had me feeling smaller of course I tried to dis her
but secretly I missed her call me hater 2 years later
had me grinning to my ears we'd both gone off to college
and met again on New Years but I was having fun
and I thought so was she so we kept in touch loosely
and I met another girl who had caught me in a slumber
had me looking dumb and dumber liar liar with a mask
had to work out at the gym for me to carry her dumb ass
and I did to the curb and I realized I was empty
so I signed to serve I enlisted USMC
infantry then OCS training was no joke
wear and tear and on a run finally I broke
both legs no cast and I still aint finish last
but I couldn't finish class my ego was of glass
I had to find a way for me to try and fix my life
I went and found that cutie and then made her my wife
Ride or die chick that's my Puerto Rican pride
And we moved back to Cali with our dreams as our guide
I finally did my Draw My Life video...my way... of course you know I had to rap it!
