Hey Baby
*Crying*
It's hard once these feelings come on by
Song comes on and I try my hardest not to cry
Amongst the stars I wish to summon
I know your there
This nightmare I plummet
as these dreams of you keep on coming
Can't stomach it
No numbing this
Each day I keep on runnin'
You wonder what would of been ours
but these hardships drag us farther apart
like what should of been my son or daughter?
Ahh could of been (a father)
Putting em in this cradle now
Cries i hear em, faint sounds
Our Angel!
in the Playground
Can't even say prenatal
like no I'm not able
for both of us it was fatal
on losing
our Angel
(I awakened the ghost of y'all
broken and left where most would fall)
Now I'm left with
being separate and once I had the Smith and Wesson against my head and for the second
I was guessing
that I messed with
who, once was my best friend
Who I let in
had my head spinned
and the next thing we questioned
Our Angel
Now in the Playground
Ain't doing this for the attention
I'm lonely
regrettin'
Angered at my decisions
Insane I'm starting to sink in
It's knowing we messed with something Godly
and later I know it's going to come back to haunt me
Something constantly following,
watching,
gnawing at me
Ohh
I'm falling and falling
and no I can't stop it
Do you
boo boo
Hear me
Speaking to you?
Sick im sinking
Sucks to think of
What could of been us
Odd is it seems
God constantly watching
Only nods at the scenes
Here with the problems
Just wanted to be the dad who awesome
When my son's got em
I be involved in to come up solve em
No!
I'm not those that go below with intents of evil
That leave
then need & breed
and leave em off in the deep end
Just sinking
so they seek peeps like me
waiting to end this weeping
but get this treatment on areas where she's weakened
Hurts to know that he would hand me
And now when I look to heaven
i know he can't stand me
Thou,
I'm right here
I fight the fear
that he/she be right there
and it's quite clear that I'm scared as I'm seein' these nightmares
In the distance
I hear em faint cries
I'm listening
Just thinking...
Maybe it ain't mine
Fuck!
I know those are all lies
Tried to hide it in private
Despise the crime which was inside
a likeness, my hybrid
which ignited in my bed with my friend
When she was pregnant
it was sevens
Meaning ya was a blessing
so spread your wings
He/she
going up to heaven to meet
If not
you can give the credit to me
I'm not a bad guy
nor a waste of time
I know you don't believe me
when I say everything will be fine
but I just really want you to see, that I am trying
Ugh!
Can't find the words
but I come to find
I confide in her
In times it hurts
Oo this pain
seems to only get worse
Wont you
lend me your courage
and tell me it's not murder!
All through the night I'm flinching and kicking
Hence nights where I'm crying into submission
Pissed inside
This is what I have to live with
Forever missing a baby and that person I would of had a kid with
It seems
God ain't no help...
and I seem
to find myself
on my knees in this hell
Crazy to say that this love is finished
and know it's all that I've given
then learn its diminished
Maybe it hurts to forget me but its worse when you miss me
Sincerely,
Alessandro R. Uentillie
"Angel in the Playground" was the hardest piece to write. The intro, " Hey, baby *cries" was exactly how I entered this piece. Being in this state was hard, moments where I would break down, thinking alcohol could I guess subsidize or reduce the pain and grief. Suicide was something I was fighting, and you realize at that moment we as people fight to stay alive in anyway possible way and going over that line individually was something I couldn't do. Thoughts of my family, thoughts of my friends saved me, writing saved me. I incorporated the pink and blue in one half and the other half because the baby we lost, the gender was unrevealed.. This was basically my letter to myself, the lady I hold dear to me who I had a baby with, and God. You know, asking, "Why God?" Why does this have to be me? Why this trail? You're really pushing me on the edge of faith because when this happened... I was in Spain and I remember going out on the field in the middle of night and just cursing God, and all who I wanted to be with was my family. Was also thinking what my family would think of me, so I held this from them. Debuting this piece was the way my family found out, them being amazing supporters in my writing, so in a way it was an apology to my family and baby girl or boy. I love you.
