This is my first complete song about the loss of my mother. This shit does NOT come easy. She died in 2002.

Lyrics
"HELLO?"
Stacey K. Black
i took a walk around the block and i looked up to the sky
there was a cloud there it looked damn familiar
and i wondered i wondered
any chance that it could be you?
any chance that you were shining through
taking a peek down on this earth
to the girl that you gave birth to?
I like to think it was you
i do.
i took a walk around the block
and i saw these kids playing
they were playing cops and robbers
one shooting one falling dead
i wanted to scream inside their heads
"you don't know what you're doing
you think it's fun and games?
it's never the same when it happens to you
i know, i know, i know that's true."
(hello hello)
i took a walk around...
not really around the block
just kind of up the street and wandered for a while
and it started getting dark my favorite time when the...
when the stars come out you can see them sometimes
when the lights aren't too bright in the...
in the big bad city
and i like to think that the shiniest one
the biggest brightest star
is you
i do
i do
(hello hello)
(can't you give me a sign)
i try to live my life in such a way
(just break on through those clouds)
that you'd be proud if you were alive today
(and tell me i'm doing fine i really could use your advice these days)
at work, with my friends
(i think i'm going crazy i think i'm going crazy)
or with my man
(man man man)
i really don't understand
(if there's anyway for you to break through)
but i guess, if i had something to be sorry for
(from the other side tell me that i'm doing fine give me a sign mommy)
the stars would go out
(i could use your help please can you help me please can you help me please)
there'd be no more clouds
(can you help me please can you help me please)
and the sun wouldn't shine anymore
(can you help me please)
that must mean i'm doing okay
(can you help me please? please?)
am i doing okay?
