"This album was recorded after the last of the several surgeries it took to save Skip-Dawg's life, and after he had been told that he would never rhyme again. After a lengthy and quite painful rehabilitation - described in detail throughout this album - it becomes clear that NOTHING except death itself was going to keep Skip-Dawg from his true occupation as mic controller. The chief theme throughout this album is Skip-Dawg's recovery and reclamation of his true passion: emceeing. For the most part, it plays like a tribute to overcoming long odds and a celebration for when those obstacles are overcome. There is a very triumphant, uplifting, and high-energy feel throughout this entire album.
The press release makes note that Skip-Dawg is renowned for his live shows and the music on this album bears that sentiment out. I can HEAR most of this material being performed live - and to great effect. "Make a Miracle Happen" is just as much a tribute to the power of love, and having people who are REALLY in your corner, as it is a narrative of his struggle with his lungs. The rapper Sassy - who if she is not his girlfriend, he needs to make her that - tells her story right alongside Skip in describing her personal efforts to keep his head up when he felt his lowest. Skip returns the favor by delivering on his promise not to give up, and making sure that Sassy knows how he feels about her.", gritty lyrics uplifting inspiring pain turmoil tension overcoming odds, “Make a Miracle Happen”
HOOK
She told me to “Make a miracle happen”
She told me to “Make a miracle happen”
She told me to “Make a miracle happen”
So what I do is I make miracles rappin rappin
She told me to “Make a miracle happen”
She told me to “Make a miracle happen”
She told me to “Make a miracle happen”
So what I do is I make miracles rappin rappin
Verse 1
My 5th lung surgery gave me a real thrashin
6 vertebrete and my chest nerve damaged
spent a year in bed my whole world crashin
who knew that this could happen - they told me no more rappin
a while later on a quick trip to manhattan
my girl Sassee and me we sat chit chattin
told her of my retirement how she reacted
changed me she met my eyes and then somethin happened
she grabbed and took me aside and then I imagine
she could seee my soul, she could see my path and
She said don’t let go - that’d be tragic
Cause the world gotta know you gotta come back and
tell them what you been through so just keep crackin
so eighteen months I been rehabbin
kept reachin out, and now I’m grabbin
after all the static – now I gotta have it back
Verse 2:
I told you to make a miracle happen
And what you did you made miracles rappin
Respect due you just wrote a new chapter
Follow your dreams and always go after
Skip, I felt your pain, saw your mind frame
I knew it was hard for you to maintain
You went from blowin up shows to bein lain
Just to breathe in air was like such a drain
Laid up for a year or more like a baby
Mentally you were still writing, now that’s crazy
Some thought you wouldn’t make it so they couldn’t take it
They didn’t care about the music and they didn’t fake it
I understood their fear, I knew how they felt
But I also know you like I knew myself
And as an artist, to stop is the hardest
And look at you now, doin it regardless
Verse 3:
And since then I been the lyrical captain captain
I been inflicted with a furious passion passion
adversity called on me this is my reaction,
headlinin shows my name poppin up in captions captions
woulda been much easier to sit at home
A lot simpler to put away the microphone
But I left it there hanging by my bedpost
To remind me every night was one more day close
To redeem myself and prove what I got to prove
4 years of my career is a lot to lose
I was stuck for so long, - I’ve gotten loose
gotta do everything I couldn’t do I gotta move
when it felt like everything had forsaken me
I clung hope from the ones who said they’d wait for me
That’s what made me work hard at re-creatin me
