Kendrick Lamar - "Love + Me + You" [Malik flip]

$when i was eleven years old and living in Dallas my parents had a bad fight and split up. it was christmas night and that altercation resulted in my mother suffering a broken collarbone, broken pride and a broken marriage. that was the final night that she and my father lived under the same roof. my younger sister and i ended up moving out with our mother and that was the beginning of what i am certain was and still stands as the most challenging time of her life. going from a middle class existence to living on government subsistence is enough to break any person down, no matter how strong willed or determined they may be. but my mother not only handled our financial hardships with grace....she always, always made sure that we never went without. even if it meant that she skipped meals in order for us to eat. i still remember hearing her stomach growling at times when i would fall asleep on her bed. i still remember comforting her when she would plead on the phone for my father to send financial assistance when money and food were low. seeing all of that at a young age was tough. yet witnessing her strength empowered me in innumerable ways. before i could even bring myself to admit it - i was a boy going through growing pains after all - she was my hero and greatest champion. looking back now, i wish i had a fraction of her strength. to move with two young kids back home to Louisiana to start her life over, work as a night nurse while going to school and having one more child, to eventually moving us all back to Dallas where she would complete her masters degree, become a nurse practitioner, buy her own home and establish herself as a pillar and cornerstone within our family. never have i witnessed as much strength, resilience and perseverance. i doubt that i ever will again. the best that i can do is emulate my mother and hope to have the same impact on others as she did on me and my siblings. i believe that women will save our world. and i believe that they truly are our greatest heroes. giants capable of anything. happy #internationalwomensday to all self identifying women....wherever you are, whomever you may be. thank you thank you thank you. ❤️❤️$
