[The Notorious B.I.G., Voletta Wallace - Ms Wallace Outro lyrics]
Hi I'm Voletta Wallace, Biggie's mom
I wish to thank you for your kind words
You warm gestures and your constant
Support over the years
I also need to share with you
A few words about my son
Please take a few moments and listen
I hope you gain something from it, thanks
As a child Christopher was outspoken
When it suited him at times he was quiet
And of course he was mischievous
As all little boys are
As a young man he liked to do everything
He liked to read
He liked to be with his friends
As young kids or young boys he enjoyed life
Everything that would make him
Happy or comfortable
He would do but mostly he enjoyed
Being with his friends and family
His early inspirations toward rap music were
The LL's of the world, the Sugar Hills
The Mr magics
And the Fat Boys of the rap channel
Those were all the things I
Heard in the house
Even though I called it noise and banging
I know now, it is a accepted musical art form
I was a single parent
I raised my son on my own
His father had no influence on his decision
Towards the musical outlet or career he chose
My son had a mind of his own
Even if his father was around
He would have turned to rap he loved music
He loved rap at a point in my son's
Life he developed paranoia
About death and about the dying
We are living in a world
Of imperfect human beings
Where greed, jealousy and envy
Are manifested by what others
Have accomplished in life
My son was very very much aware of that
He appreciated his station in
Life on the directions
In which he was going or traveling
On the other hand there were others
Who I should use the hip
Hop phrase player hating
And I think that is what
Resulted in his paranoia
If I had to change anything in my son's life
That would have allowed him to be here today
I would have deterred him from
A career in music
I'm aware that millions appreciate his music
Millions loved his music
Be that it may if he
Hadn't chosen that lifestyle, that career
My son would be alive today
If I could sum up Christopher in one
Word the word would be generous
The thing that my son loved most
About life was the fact that
He was in a position to help
Position to share
Position to give to others who needed
To others who wanted
To others appreciated the gifts that he gave
I wish to thank you for your kind words
You warm gestures and your constant
Support over the years
I also need to share with you
A few words about my son
Please take a few moments and listen
I hope you gain something from it, thanks
