Dade County |
Miami |
A baby boy, livin' in a hotel with his parents |
Mommy was a maid there |
Don’t really know what pops did but |
He was trainin' to be a locksmith |
We moved up the coast |
Back to where the grandparents lived |
Perhaps for cash |
I didn’t think to ask as a kid |
And I don’t where pops went, but things seemed stable |
Even when he left his keys on the table |
My single mom |
She was able to make it without relationships |
Every so often, pops would show up and babysit |
It never made me think about his day job a lot |
Until the day when my mom’s changed the locks |
In those days |
When he watched me, when I think back, in some ways |
Made up of coffee, six packs and gun play |
Pornography and projects, step siblings and half relatives |
But havin' kids is bad for business |
Girlfriends were the rage then |
Babies in the playpen |
Toddlers were forgotten in front of television stations |
It wasn’t just one way to say things |
Between the two households |
I out rode all types of combinations |
Breakin' these codes and peekin' through key holes |
Finger on the pulse, stethoscopes broke the needle |
Put my ear to the ground, you hear the pins drop |
Gears in the clock |
Turned like my stomach turned like the dial on a padlock |
Rhode Island was the backdrop |
The world was the oyster |
Crack the shell, hand the pearl over to the lawyer |
In family court I make judgments |
I’m a product of my father’s trade and my mother’s substance |
I. Feel. |
A. Little. |
Apprehensive. |
Talking to |
You you. |
About. |
My. |
Life. |
With. |
My. |
Own. |
Voice |
Although. |
I. Think. |
People. |
Will. |
Relate. |
And. |
Understand |
That kid weighs twelve pounds WITH my dick in his mouth |
