    All that I got is you (Word up mommy, I love you)
    And I'm so thankful I made it through (Word up)
    All that I got is you (It was all you, word)
    And I'm so thankful I made it through (You brought me in like this)
    Yeah

    I’ve been disabled in a wheelchair my whole life. I went to Ghostface & Raekwon concert at Sunshine theater in Albuquerque. After the show, he was walking through the crowd, Ghostface stopped and saluted me. May God bless him and his disabled brothers.

      It wasn't really painful. We was too young to know how hard we had it. Not til you grow up and reflect that it hits you and you reminisce. I wouldn't have it other way though. Tough beginnings give you empathy for people in the struggle. That's why I'm a 42 year old white man who don't have a racist bone in my body. In fact it gave me so much love for the black community. Even after finding out we got robbed on Xmas morning. I remember just feeling so bad for my mother. But even after that, moms still managed to find away. RIP Mommy

    It’s fair to say that it millions of ppl that can relate to this, Wu Tang is for the children 🫶🏾 We definitely went through everything in this song minus housing trying to throw us out our place my Nana owned her Vanderbelt mobile home. It was raggedy by the the 90s. We definitely had multiple children in one room, living room, boiled water on the stove for baths, used the oven to warm the crib, asked the neighbors for coins, used newspaper. We had a washing machine and everybody knew when it was on bc the trailer rocked from side to side. They painted it pastel pink. My momma left my daddy and he got killed. It’s sad that children men don’t value their mothers like they did back then. And we are the creators and the one left with the responsibility when daddy walks away. I’ll forever Respect Ghost for this one🤞🏾
