My Dad man🙂‍↔️ In my youth, I felt I was robbed of father & son activities. It seemed like our relationship would never make it beyond the phone. This fostered a lot of anger which you always told me to keep in check to avoid reliving some of your mistakes. So I did… Then I turned 15. When we finally met face to face I knew God wouldn’t let our relationship drift.

Losing you just a lil more before my 30th birthday was something I did not see coming dawg. I’m blessed to have known you. To know that my creativity is not just an interest but a bone, a gene, and a gift, I inherited from you. I still remember you bragging about Detroit radio stations playing your song on repeat back in the day lol. The pride I heard in your voice stirred up a sense of pride in me too. For the first time I knew what it was like to actually know my father.

These past 15 years together has been an answered prayer and something that we always talked about. “Don’t worry son, our time is coming” you would always say. lol used to piss me off sometimes but being able to reflect on our memories is proof of your vision coming to fruition. Now I promise to keep your vision for my life alive. Thank you for always believing in me and encouraging me to be my best self. Personally and creatively. The best of you still lives in me and I will live to the fullest. I love you Dad🕊️
