Summer of 2011 was the worst time for me,
My whole life almost snatched away from me,
From my ex, surgery, dad, aunt, and even my son no clue if "existed"
choices I made, I've looked backed and witnessed what was done

My love, Best friend only person that knew me,
My decisions karma visited me, misery spoke to me,
Secrets, oaths, going to use that against me?
Told me he once lived, then sit there lying to me?!
Man enough to say I tried to fix it, admitted my mistakes,
Took me months to get over you, fixing the inevitable
In the end just turn the page we tore each other's heart apart
      
Football world was where I was free, meant to be great
had the opportunity to showcase god's gift and talent,
once again going to take it away from me?
give it away to the less fortunate than me?
Keep it man, I gave my life into god's hand
For that I'm bless, patient, standing strong

Had ankle surgery couldn't walk enjoy life as life should be
No job couldn't work, it was hard to think
wisdom teeth pulled couldn't talk, eat, nor drink
Damn summer 2011 was a bad time for me
            
Everybody I considered friends wasn't even thinking about me
wasn't even acknowledge no one noticed nor paid attention
no college, path, career, where am I going?
Thoughts gone, happiness snatched, misery never left

My shield and armor father flat lined three times thinking life was over
My inspiration choking, gasping, trying to talk.
Couldn't hear lost 95% of his voice, yet laughing and smiling
Telling me how life is to short and no reason to be mad just live free
            
Weeks down the road my aunt had a tumor,
No one showed up but me, checking if she's alright
so much anger in the family never understood why fight?
Damn summer 2011 was the worst time for me

Be happy, live free never say it won't happen to me
pray, say I love you don't expect to see tomorrow,
spend time with family cherish the memories
Don't want you what summer 2011 done to me
