For months, I have mourned not having this song, “Family Matters.” Charles wanted to record that rap song and publish it to iTunes through Imperial Alliance Media, but he died before that happened. I believe he wrote this one about 10 months before he died. So I pick up his backpack and turn to a page and there it is! I have been looking and looking. And it was here the whole time. What a gift.

Charles died by suicide June 5, 2015 and I think he wrote it in May of 2014 before he was addicted to anything. And I don’t think Charles had been addicted for much more than 6 or 7 months before he died but I don’t know for sure.

I will publish the song on this blog. It takes a while to type them up and get them right. It’s a good one, a love letter to family.

By the way, the heart is origami. I’m not a pro but gave it a shot!
