Little Cousin

You scare me sometimes, Little Cousin
Like with what you’re doing
And who you hang out with

Why do you do that, Little Cousin?
Are you looking for trouble?
Or begging for help?

I’m here for you, Little Cousin
Anytime
Day or night

Don’t lose hope, Little Cousin
You’re not alone
Never alone

Keep your head up, Little Cousin
Don’t look to the blade for support
All it’ll do is hurt you more

Don’t give up on life just yet, Little Cousin
There’s just too much to live for
Especially for you

You’re blessed, Little Cousin
With your rhymes and your voice
Your heart and your soul

You’re gonna go somewhere, Little Cousin
I can see it when I look at you
Hear it when I talk to you

Just be patient, Little Cousin
Take your time
No need to rush

You’ll grow up fine, Little Cousin
Don’t you worry
You’ll go somewhere

I believe in you, Little Cousin
And you know what?
It’s time you did too

Strive for more, Little Cousin
Don’t slack off
Or settle

I trust you’ll do right, Little Cousin
Always and forever
Always do right
