Where'D You Go (C) 1-14-10

I search and I search Trying to find where’d You go The soothing sound of Your voice relaxes me Where were you when I called for you when I searched for You Were the prophesies of Nostradamus true You put me in a trance whenever I heard You My dear beloved I cannot live without You Am I truly left in this generation by myself With the mind of a generation and a half before me The only one I could trust in and rely on And like everyone else You left me You deciphered my poetry in every cipher And taught me the path not to follow to be a man Gave me the souls of mischief and predicted my anthem You gave me the Message and truly I say to You I followed You knew my ways would shortly die out so You showed me the immortal technique Of knowing my nation and the harsh cruel world I live in When I was upset with my parents You gave me the hope of being paid in full You showed me the style of the Wu Tang and told me “It’s yours” I ran with it feeling like I had the face of a ghost and You gave it to me You showed me You didn’t believe in racism and gave me the greatest reason You taught me who the shady niggaz were but learn from the slim one I know longer colored coded M&M’s but I spit em out like a gatlin Lost in a world of my own You knew I was misunderstood Because You gave me the common sense that I have today Though today my sense is uncommon even while bein common without the sense I bet You understood what I just said, Cause you always understood Your bedtime stories were real slick and when you read em my imagination flourished The poetry I write today is under Your influence Even when no one was around You showed how a failure would change my life They said my future was dark but You told me don’t worry, One day you’ll be able to say “I’m beaming” I followed Your path trying to learn how to kick knowledge from the top like You do I wanna know how You did what you did but I’m bein told that You’re dead You can’t be the prophesy is a lie but I too am seein this “Hip Pop” overshadowing You But why it has no meaning, It has no truth, it has no purpose But You do, You always have, please don’t tell me You’ll die in my presence Tell me it was a lie, I’ll search the great wall of China to Lincoln Park to ask Where’d You Go
