Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Em]Hi I'm Voletta Wallace, Biggie's mom
I wish to thank you for your
kind words
You warm gestures and your constant
support over the years
I also need to share with you
a few words about my son
Please take a few moments and listen

[Verse 2]
I hope you gain something from it, thanks
[Em]As a child Christopher was outspoken
When it suited him at times he was quiet
And of course he was mischievous
as all little boys are
As a young man he liked
to do everything

[Verse 3]
He liked [Em]to read,
he liked to be with his friends
[Bm]As y[Em]oung kids or young
boys he enjoyed life
Everything that would make him
happy or comfortable
[A]He would do but mostly he enjoyed
being with his friends and family
[D]His early

[Verse 4]
inspirations toward
rap mu[Em]sic were
The LL's of the world,
[D]the Sugar [Em]Hills, the Mr. Magics
And the Fat Boys of the rap channel
Those were all the things I
heard in the house
Even though I [A]called it noise and banging

[Verse 5]
[Em]
I know now, it is a accepted
music[Bm]al art form
I was a single parent,
[Em]I raised my son on my own
His father had no influence
on his de[Bm]cision
Towards [Em]the musical outlet
or ca[Bm]reer he chose

[Verse 6]
My son [Em]had a mind of his own,
[D]eve[Em]n if his[A] fat[Em]her was around
He would have turned to rap,
[G]he lov[Bm]ed music, he loved rap[Em][Bm]
At a point in my [Em]son's [G]life [Em]he
developed paranoia
[D]About death and about
[Em]the dying

[Verse 7]
We are living [Em]in a[Bm] world of
imperfect human [Em]beings
Where [Bm]greed, jealousy and [Em]envy
Are manifested by what others
accomplished in life
My son was very very
much aware [D]of that[A]
He appre[Em]ciated his sta

[Verse 8]
[D]tion in
life on the directions
[Em]In which he [D]was going or traveling
On the other hand there were [A]others
[D]Who [Em]I should [D]use [Em]the hip
hop phrase player hating
And I [D]think

[Verse 9]
that is what
resulted in his [Em]paranoia
If I had to change anything
in my son's life
That would have [D]al lowed him
[Em]to be here today[Bm]
I would have de[Em]terred him

[Verse 10]
from a career in music
[Em]I'm aware that millions appreciate his music,
[Bm]millions lov[Em]ed his music
[Bm]Be that it may if he h[Em]adn't chosen that lifestyle,
that career
My son would be alive [Bm]today[Em]
If I could sum [Bm]up Ch[Em]ristopher in one word
[D]the word would be gen[Em]erous

[Verse 11]
[Em]
The thing that my [Bm]son loved most
[Em]about life was [Bm]the fact that
He was in a position [Em]to help,
posi[D]tion to [Em]share
Position to give to others who needed,
[A]to [D]others who[Em] wanted
[Em]To others appreciated the
gifts that he gave
[Em][D]
