How You Been

Mic Geronimo

Yeah



Came to talk to you for a minute



You know



I miss you



But I love you



Ain't nobody done for me what you done for me Ma



You know



So I'ma do this one here for you




Rest in peace



Your son




It woulda been the greatest thing in the world to see



All the possibilities you made em real for me



In '73 opened me to life itself



Guard my health and went for delf but needed no one else



Allah himself'll only know the reason you're gone



And forever I'ma feel a little pain and mourn



(Life goes on) Now I'm blessed, so I raise each morn



Still I ask every night you help me face the dawn



Pray alone inside a stone-cold confusion and weep



But only your touch can bring me to peace



I can keep a little something of you with me till I reach the end



Till then, let me ask you again, how you been?




[Chorus]



This is cause I'm thinkin of you



My love for you will always be true



You know I'll never forget you for life



Think of you forever




Sittin recallin how you caught me, how you broke my fall



Heard you scream off in terrors, heard my name you called



All of the lessons you taught me, how this life is war



How to hold till I be sure that I can go for more



Saw me enduring the pain and goin from poor to fame



But livin with more to gain is makin me more insane



It's a strain, I could tell you, you already know



Still I'ma live to tellin you so



And I'm sure you know the way that you was handlin was passed to me



Askin nobody for nothin, so don't ask for me



Look and see how you raised a little nigga to man



It was all just a part of the plan



Daze back as I gaze back lookin at the fact that
