This is really personal... I'm sure I will end up deleting it. Enjoy ^^

"What does your name mean?"

I can only answer in relevance to what it seems

My name was assigned like most urban girls

Named after the man who spawned their world

Clinton to Clinea Janae

The name I am called day to day

Why be named after someone who's not around?

Someone who never shows support, quiet in my background

Sometimes, if I'm lucky I'll get a phone call

Making false promises that are be broken and shouldn't be made at all

Nea-Pea is his name for me

The name I am called by him daily

According to him my rap style is beast

Beast enough to add up to him at weak

But I don't want to be compared to my dad

When he really isn't in the memories I've had

Clines Janae, my name from his

Named after him, who I didn't know enough to miss.
