Irene Aka Moms Lyrics

Hey, hey Jermaine, I'm doing pretty good, thank you, I'm in recording so I have to be good

Hey, hey Jermaine, I'm doing pretty good, thank you, I'm in recording so I have to be good

You were born May the 16th, 1980. I think, I want to say it was a Friday afternoon, we went flying to the hospital

And I think you came sometime that night. It didn't take you long for you to come, but it was just, you were just a big baby, so you was hard delivery

And it depresses me when I talk about how they pulled my baby out and everything

And you had your little hands all propped behind your head, I don't know what you was in there chilling I guess

And pulled you out just like that with your hands propped behind your head, so that's what happened with your arms

And then you decided you had to go to the bathroom, so you had to have a bowel movement and settle in your lungs

And then you had to be in the hospital a whole week so they could clean your little lungs out and everything

You was a busy body trying to come here

But you were a miracle baby

They told me you'd never use your arm and I said yes he will

So I worked with your arm day and night and everything

And propped, pinned it up at night time when you got to sleep and stuff like that

And exercised at the end of the day

They tried to send me home to the hospital

I said what you mean send me home? I said I'm not going home till my baby girl

You start growing up

I thought you was doing very well and stuff in school

I think it was a little problem when it came in when your dad and I broke up

I think you were very hurtful that you thought you were the reason that we broke up

But it wasn't that

At what point in time did you see any type of talent that I had

Was it musical? Was it communications? Was it electronics

As I was growing up as a kid did you notice anything special that I was doing

I think you had quite a few talents

You were very musical

And you were also very communications

You were always building something or putting something together

You started off putting things together

And then you grew into where you liked music and everything

You became kind of musical

And by the time you were 10, 11, 12 you were really more into the music than the communications

I liked you building and making things

And I thought this would be great for him down the road as far as employment

But you weren't musical

And you got that first start at that record store in Portsmouth

And then you went on with the Buda Brothers and on and on and on

So then I said okay

I think he's going to be more musical than electrical

But you still have those qualities in you

Because you can run some cable and do that communications and stuff

So you started there

You went on to a recording workshop in Chillicothe, Ohio

You did very good

Came out there as a second engineer

I was very, very proud of you

The next thing I know you wanted to go to Full Sail University

You went on there to pursue your music career

You got your associate's

And you continued on

You got your bachelor's

You went on and got your master's

So you really did really good

Very talented

Very gifted

So with the difficulties that you had with your learning and your arm and everything

you just let none of that stuff get in your way

You pursued what you wanted to do and be in life

And today you're still doing that

You're doing some great things

I don't know all the great things

I don't know a lot about water

But I know you're doing something great there

Sometimes when I look on the Facebook, I say okay, he's doing some stuff

And I know one day it's going to pop out like wow

I didn't know it was going

You even developed a line that's lined or something

I pick up on bits and pieces

Although I'm working and I got a career going and trying to help and support and things like that

But I still pick up on what you're doing

So I know you're doing great things

But I'm very, very proud of you

The young man you have become

A few little flaws in there, but I know they'll straighten out

I have a great grandson that he's going to help his dad

He's going to keep you on the straight and narrow there

But on the whole, I think you're a wonderful and talented young man

You are God-driven

And that's the main thing

You are God-driven because I've always taught you

God is always first

Every night when you pray, you always tell God how much you love him

You don't have unconditional love for no one but God

He's always first

You love him with all your heart and soul

And then you add everybody else underneath that that you love them

And when you do that, God will open even more doors for you

And I love..

What is his name and his wife

What is his name

I can't think of an elder

What is his name

Which one

Him and his wife. He's always cooking and teaching them

Okay, Elder Brian

Yeah, Elder Brian. I love the Brians

How they're there for you

You just have such a loving church family

I love that

Yeah

I hope I've done very well on this interview for you

I just get filled up and I try not to cry

I try not to cry and everything

You think I did wonderful? Thank you

Thank you, son

Thank you

Huh

What's today

Today is August the 2nd

2022

2022

How old are you, man

Huh

How old are you

I just turned 70

I think I'll live to be... I'll live up to being 105

But my great-grandparents were like 95

So it's longevity on the Carter side of the family

I love you, baby

Darling

I love you

I love you too, baby

I truly, truly love you

You are exceptional

You turned out good

I was kind of weary for a little bit

But I know God would help me

He would get us through

So you know what

You just turned it around and everything is beautiful

I'm very proud of you

Just continue to be the person that you are

And be germane

Baby, I love you too now

Bye-bye

I want to be a good man

You are the part of me

I want to be a good man

It's right here

Yo

Waterwalk is in the building
