"William"
  by MizzKiKi


for My brother and mah heart
William J. Washington
sunrise 07/26/1979
sunset 12/27/2006


On Dec 27th my heart was ripped out mah chest
of all the tragedies in mah life this one is above the rest

Early that morning,
God took your soul.
Finding out who did it would take its toll

you left a message sayin \"sis take care of mah daughter,
as i take my last breath, ill be thinkin bout her.\"
The phone went dead
and in mah chest mah heart sunk
I was sittin there thinking WTF??

12 o\'clock news, confirmed what the streets was sayin..
these niggas ran in ur spot and they wasnt playin..

Didnt kno who or why what the hell was goin on...
but the niggas that did would either be dead or caught
before i could go on..

a few days later we laid u to rest
everyone was cryin and upset
put our familys strength to the test

dont get me wrong we were tight, but u was our center
the one who would give his shirt to us off his back in the middle of the fuccin winter.

Said our goodbyes as we left the cemetary,
keepin memories in our heads
but some of us was plottin wantin the niggas that did this dead.

Today my greatest dream came true
they caught the nigga that killed u
but i should be happy as hell jumpin up and down for joy..
only one thing
he was the younger brother of mah boy..

damn nigga mah heart my soul will never be the same..
u killed mah brother over some bullshit and he dont even bang...

mah nigga is hurt cus his younger brother got caught up..
hes been tryin to raise him since his daddy got locked up..
tried his best doin only what he knows..
now he facing life in jail and aint no guarantee he will get paroled..

i feel so bad but at the same time angry
dont wanna say nothin out the side of mah face
and make mah homeboi hate me..

i dont want him breathin i want him dead like William is
I keep askin God to help me open mah heart and forgive him..
but i cant right now so i gotta just write how i feel..
maybe down the road mah heart will heal..

I look at mah niece on a daily basis and see mah brother..
look at pictures of us.. and pictures of him with his mother...
i kno hes here lookin and watchin us all
smilin crackin jokes havin a ball..

i miss u baby boi.. i will see u again one day..
U always in mah heart and may u rest in peace bighead
Love u always ur sis.. KIKi
