Jiggy Min - 23 Years Lyrics

Back bone momma strong keeping it together
But it's mad long we been strong it won't last forever
23 years he been gone
23 years he ain't home
I said now back bone momma strong keeping it together
But it's mad long we been strong it won't last forever
23 years he been gone
It's been 23 years bring him home

I been thinking bout his freedom since a kid since a kid
If Alfonso never went into the pin to the pin
If the choice he made was staying in the crib in the crib
Keep it stacked man we don't know if he would live he would live
I know we got to answer for mistakes
Really dawg it's so much we can take
Easier to put us in some chains dawg
They don't ever factor in the change dawg
They don't factor in my brother got a family
Now his son infected by you locking up the legacy
Now his little brothers got to fight to keep our sanity
This ain't for no pity this my only way of therapy
They took my brother life for a life he didn't take
And the co-defendant white he got less because his race
That's a fact check the case
It's the system a disgrace
When trigger man get less because the color of his face

Back bone momma strong keeping it together
But it's mad long we been strong it won't last forever
23 years he been gone
23 years he ain't home
I said now back bone momma strong keeping it together
But it's mad long we been strong it won't last forever
23 years he been gone
It's been 23 years bring him home

See we are not making excuses you gave him sentence but more than you should've
I know he repented it ain't enough for da business
We know the prison keep blacks from ascending
Trust me we never put trust in the system
Church stopped praying when we stopped attending
All of the homies they always forget him
My momma she tired she tired of pretending
Pretend to be strong now huh
I need to calm down huh
It's in a song now my brother been lock for too long now huh
Somebody free him
I need to calm down huh
It's in a song now my brother been lock for too long now huh
I'm looking I'm looking I'm looking for wins
Faith and I'm doing I'm making them blend
Put them together I'm making a trend
Skip in the music his story won't end
Give it to God he know what it is
It don't make it easy it's harder to live
Now I'm a man I got my own kids
That he never met I pray that he will
Speaking of will I wonder what's yours God
Where the results God
Don't let me take it by force God
Show me the course God
I know that you are God
Where the results God
All of the power is yours God
Show me the course God
