Array ( [sid] => 51593 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => changes for boo (my nephew) [time] => 2004-06-12 17:12:53 [hometext] => THIS IS A DEDICATION TO MY NEPHEW WHOM I LOVE DEARLY AND WHO I BELIEVE IN TOTALLY...IT'S ABOUT REALIZING CHANGES THAT NEED TO BE MADE AND MAKING THEM...HE DID AND IS BETTER FOR IT..AND IN A BETTER PLACE IN HIS LIFE [bodytext] =>
sometimes in our lives, we forget for a moment or dont realize
that everything we do is before God's eyes
he sees our every movement, both good and bad
the good loving part gives him joy while the rest make him sad

he gives us chance after chance, to get our lives straight
instead of heeding his message we often debate
about how we can change the situation we are in
but most of us repeat it time and time again

we do this, because we try to do it all on our own
but God wants us to know we are not alone
we all have disappointments, pain and sorrow to
they are but trials, God puts us through

sometimes we feel life is unfair, cos nothing seems right
kneel down and pray,God will guide you through the plight
your troubles are but trials, for you to see and understand
that the life you are living, has gotten out of hand

i hate that it took being in jail to slow you down
maybe that's the only way the real you can be found
to think about what it is you really want to do
just search your heart, the answer's inside of you

being in this jam has slowed you down a bit
you know you are living a lifestyle you have to quit
a young intelligent blackman an there is so much more you coud be
than just another brother wanted on T.v.

you have a family who loves you, and a daughter you adore
and a woman who loves all you stand for
so weigh your options and weigh them well
your reality is, your family or jail


always know i love you and that i'm on your side
but God, is the one in which you must confide
he wants your attention, and wants you focused to understand
nothing your going through is in vain, only part of his plan

to help you realize, the man you were born to be
and that satan's way is not a reality
it's only glorified trouble, to make you lose sight
of everything in your heart, you know is right

look at this as another lesson, God wants you to learn
about how nothing is easy, but has to be earned
so know that i love you, and i will always be
right there when ever you need me
