"Backbone(Performed At My Grandma's B-Day Party)"
  by MurkBoi


She is the backbone, the spine, the nerves, my words,
She is the family every noun, pronoun, and verb,
She is the root of the tree that gives it life,
She is a mother, a grandmother, and a great wife,
She is our history the past and the present,
Everyone know who she is so there's no need for guessing,
She is a blessing to the family, and a blessing in the community,
Because the hotspot we have unity,
Her smile can light the dark, her words can move mountains,
She is the backbone and is needed like water in a fountain,
She is our words "We Shall Not Be Moved",
Our Maya Angelou, our righteous tool,
We are a family and won't stand alone,
That's why we love our backbone Arena Jones
