- On Coming From a Broken Home （Pt. 1） - Gil Scott-Heron
Written by：E. Hudson/Kanye West/Gil Scott/Heron
I want to make this a special tribute
To a family that contradicts the concepts
Heard the rules but wouldnt accept
In women folk raised me
And I was full grown
Before I knew
I came from a broken home
Sent to live with my grandma down south
When my uncles was leaving
And my grandfather had just left for heaven
They said
And as every ologist would certainly note
I had no strong male figure right
But lily scott was absolutely not your mail
Order room service type cast black grandmother
I was moved in with her
Temporarily
Just until things were patched
Til this was patched and til that was patched
Until I became
At 3456789and 10
The patch that held Lily
Scott who held me and like them 4
I became one more
An I loved her from the absolute marrow of my bones
And we was holdinon
I come from a broken home
She had more than the five senses
She knew more than books could teach
And raised everyone she touched just a little bit higher
And all around her there was a natural sense
As though she sensed what the stars say what the birds say
What the wind and the clouds say
A sensual soul and self that
African sense
And she raised me like she raised 4of her own
And I was hurt and scared and shocked
When Lil Scott left suddenly one night
And they sent a limousine from heaven
To take her to god if there is one
So I knew she had gone
And I came from a broken home
