ππ€ππ€ππ€ γ»γ»γ» #mourningvibes: I can't even commence to transcribe how I feel about this #gentleandkind spirit Yet as I try to make sense of how we first vibed to Betty Wright's #afterthepain, I smile as I picture us on that sage simultaneously sangin' those lyrics You clutchin' your invisible mic breakin' down They used to cook up a little food and throw a little party Me wondering how you lured me out of my comfort zone crooning Don't blame Mr. Charlie As I recall your smile and the moment you graciously stated "I got you brother" I am elated to know that you are amongst the heavens vibin' with your godmother When I think of your loved ones and significant other, I try to hold back the tears from falling down As "For all those who wanted to know, was there life after the pain?" deeply resounds Heaven only knows why you asked "What's your favorite Betty Wright song?" that first day we began our story What I know for sure is now that you're amongst the heavens and I'm sitting here, Eyes welled with tears, listening to Betty state "Well, I couldn't resist the urge to tell you the end of my story" And I cannot help but think, you're up there smiling down with a wink like "This is not the end of my story" As the teardrops sustain, I find comfort in knowing that #theancestors remain as long as we speak of their name And you oughtta know dat the story of #DJKNODAT has just begun You have touched the hearts and souls of some of the most prolific tongues And you oughtta know dat we gon' hold #THEQUEENSHEBA down and preserve the history and heritage of your #poetryvshiphop family O' what a distinct honor it has been to witness the vibes you imported from Miami #onelove family, Stevie #scribesandvibes β’ #homage β’ #peacetotheancestors https://www.instagram.com/p/CYlvLE5LbCk/?utm_medium=tumblr
