PHOENIX 1982 University High School-Clinton Place-Newark, New Jersey . . We must not lose control at the discovery that would let everybody see we were meant to be . And now we must set new goals We know not what awaits us To whom will life be kind Upon whom shall it frown Alma mater-Chicago Looking back a few short years When we made our plans and played the cards the way they fell. Clinging to our confidence We stood on the threshold of the goal that we knew. And though we had our fights Had our snort tempered nights It couldn't pull our dreams apart. All our needs and all our wants Drawn together in our hearts. We felt it from the very start. It's all happened recently Everything is going fine And now we must set brand new goals, We must not lose control of the possibility of the discovery That would let everybody see that we were just meant to be.

But as a child, I had to find our for myself. I understand now. Momma. I see things the way they are. It hurts. Momma. It hurts to know I'm all alone. My days seem lonely. My nights seem lonelier. I try to dream of a bit of happiness. But, Momma, There is none lefl- At least none that was meant for me. I tried. Momma. Trying gets me nowhere. I'm tired now. Momma. I think I'll call it a day. I know, Momma. You say. Keep on going 'cause things will get better 'Tis easier said, than done. You tried. Momma. But I was too grown. And too damned smart! Now I'm paying for it. Paying the hard way. Well, that's part of life too. Isn't it. Momma? Paying the hard way? You paid. And you never gave up. I am a part of you. And I'll never give up. I owe my strength to you. I owe thanks-All to you. Momma.
