And ain't nothing they can tell me now
Lord, give me a sign

My resPEcts to Rev Jax and his family are immense. This is a man who inspired my ways and gave personal time to me and my family. Ironically I could not attend his homegoing because it was the same day of a matriarch in my own family 2000 miles away. Real talk for real dude who did real things in real life.🙏🏿👊🏿
