I don't even know your name or even what you look like/
Met you inside of juvi, they took me from that good fight/
Though your role was brief I think it taught me how to do right/
Compared to what it could be ay, I think I lead a good life/
So how do I, go to show appreciation/
when I lack the knowledge of your face and other information/
All I know about you s'that you had this energy/
that always soothed me mentally combined inside your empathy/
The other staff would only come by to talk shit to me/
but you defended me and made sure that it wouldn't get to me/
They broke my glasses when they dropped me down and cuffed me/
Disgusted when I told you, then you said I'm just unlucky/
Made sure that I knew that I'm not a bad kid by any means/
and I could do anything and I deserved everything/
You knew I didn't belong, convinced me that I didn't either/
I still think of you sometime, my missing teacher/
I'm a little cold but I've warmed up with you/
I'm a little cold but I've warmed up with you/
On the note of missing teacher, shout out Mr. Meagher/
I'm hoping life's been good and someday I can go and reach ya/
Show you what I'm up to, tell you bout my goals/
that I prolly wouldn't have if you hadn't played a role/
and taught me how to cope, before you I ain't know/
how to take the steps to keep on nourishing my soul/
Taught me how to manage stress, roll with life and laugh with it/
That it's less about the pain but what you're choosing after it/
I wanna show the weight I lost, from my waist/
and shoulders too, and show that I healed all my open wounds/
I hope you know it's true, my life I owe to you/
I'd met you when I wanted my casket closed too soon/
And here I sit so grateful, to you I wanna wish well/
as I sip my morning tea while I'm reading ishmael/
Once a taker but I work to be a leaver/
I believe I'm where I'm at with some help from mr. meagher/
I'm a little cold but I've warmed up with you/
I'm a little cold but I've warmed up with you/
It's almost like you've opened curtains/
And brought a light inside I always wanna be immersed in/
It helps to see what's in front of me that's truly worth it/
I hope you know you make me wanna be a better person/
I hope you know, that I truly do look up to you/
Me and a couple others who give thanks to what you've come to do/
I look at you and all the acts you do are beautiful/
My heart feels warmer when you make me feel the feelings mutual/
For you to say that you see the good in me/
I feel I've made the best choice in who I choose to be/
I feel like I've been making all the right moves/
'cause if I wasn't I don't think that I'd ever find you/
I'm glad we crossed paths even for a brief time/
Glad you're a part of this Earth and also these rhymes/
When you leave and it's time for you to go/
I'll be happy I shared time with this person that I know/
I'm a little cold but I've warmed up with you/
I'm a little cold but I've warmed up with you/

If you were a fan of the production work Steez did on here, be sure to check out his first release called Bless. He's working hard on some new music that is really going to showcase his range. Ahnom
You can't go wrong with Oddisee. Everything he has made is amazing. If any rapper has influenced me the most recently, it's hands down Oddisee. If I could be half as good as an MC as he is... Ahnom
Tope is a local hero to me from the Portland rap scene. To be real, I don't follow the local scene here too hard, but Tope will always be an artist I think of when someone mentions Portland. Ahnom
