When I’m away from you, I’ll always think about you.
Your smiles, your conversation,
the last times we spent hugging and kissing,
holding the block down together.
I remember when you used to smile at me.
It made me feel special.
Now I’m away from you, just trying to be by your side again.
I’m hustling to stay alive.
Every day I’m away from you,
they say a man ain’t supposed to cry.
You’re my lucky charm.
You sparkle up my day.
You give me hope and joy.
You show me love I never had.
I never felt this way.
Special love that you dream about.
Love and affection.
I was raised in the streets in the South Bay, known as the south gutter.
I leave that life being hungry, tears on my face.
I found that special one who’s teaching me about love,
seeing her smile,
learning how to communicate and hold a relationship.
I found my lucky charm.
