Marvin |
| April 2nd 1939, the stars is in line |
| Divine intervention at it’s own intention |
| Birthed a gift |
| In this DC kid |
| He sung heavenly |
| Good values and all |
| And his father was in the ministry |
| God fearing man with a mother that’s so beautiful |
| The angels would serve her |
| What’s her name? |
| It’s Alberta |
| This little boy quickly became a man |
| From blowing in his father’s church |
| To making his own band |
| Called the Moonglows |
| Sensational with his vocals |
| That drove the ladies crazy |
| Panties got thrown at his shows |
| But he was far from happy |
| He wore a smile just to hide it behind them doors |
| Him and his father constantly colliding |
| Marvin, the sound of your voice |
| Sets fire my soul |
| What a glory to be hold |
| Marvin, my heart, my heart still wonders how |
| I just hope you’re happy now |
| Destined for greatness |
| Counting his blessings |
| Young’uns struggling with pressures |
| That the fact that his pops was a cross dresser |
| But he still loved him |
| You know the bond between his son and father |
| That only pushed him and forced him to sing harder |
| His main man Harvey Fuqua gassed up his car |
| Believed his sound |
| And took him down to Motown y’all |
| That’s where it all happened |
| Success in the palm of his hand |
| But unfortunate the fame wasn’t enough |
| He wanted more out of life |
| Took it further and found himself a wife |
| Pretty Anna Gordy |
| She made his time sit still |
| She was the cousin of Barry G |
| The founder of Hitsville |
| Please pay attention because the story it gets ill |
| Shit’s real |
| Trials and tribulations son’s facing |
| You gotta play the cards you’re dealt |
| Ain’t no telling what life deals |
| Death will cause you to have night chills |
| Enough to keep a nigga bothered |
| Especially when the negatives start coming from your father |
| Marvin, the sound of your voice |
| Sets fire my soul |
| What a glory to be hold |
| Marvin, my heart, my heart still wonders how |
| I just hope you’re happy now |
| Money, women and drugs came into play |
| Now wouldn’t you know |
| There goes another happy home down the drain |
| That night life had him speeding through hell |
| Scarred by the death of Tammy Terell |
| Couldn’t believe it, he spiraled downhill |
| Secluding himself |
| From the music and the press |
| He was sick and really getting depressed |
| Time passed so he bounced back on track |
| New and improved |
| Even got himself a new wife too |
| Everything is on the up and up |
| Got his act together spiritually he claims |
| You could see the glow up on this fella |
| Tried to make amends with his father |
| But the hatred is too strong |
| Revolver in his palm |
| The warning that death was close |
| His mother screaming out «Honey don’t do it!» |
| One shot to the chest made Marvin lose fluids |
| April 1st he died on the spot |
| The scene was so horrific |
| How a father could kill his own son |
| Defines wicked |
| Marvin, the sound of your voice |
| Sets fire my soul |
| What a glory to be hold |
| Marvin, my heart, my heart still wonders how |
| I just hope you’re happy now |
| Marvin |
| Marvin |
| It’s the sound of the music |
| Marvin |
| Marvin |
| Marvin |
